What an absolute clown show for everyone involved, and I say this as a Saints fan. Jameis looks like an ass for going rogue on his coach for the sake of style points in a meaningless situation, but honestly it might reflect even worse on Dennis Allen. If he’s lost the respect of his players so badly that the rest of the team would be willing to go along with something like that (and even publicly double down on it after the fact), the Saints’ locker room situation seems to be a lot worse than I thought.
It’s a shame the Saints couldn’t have just kept Allen as a DC. Yesterday notwithstanding, our defenses have generally been excellent while he’s been around, but the man is just absolutely not cut out to be a head coach.
Promoted to his level of incompetence once again. And now some other team will be picking up an elite DC this offseason at the Saints’ expense…
Master of Puppets. I know it’s not a particularly daring choice, but I don’t care, it’s perfection.
Is Pickett really that bad? I don’t really follow the Steelers, so maybe my impression isn’t accurate, but it seemed to me that even though he wasn’t franchise QB material, he didn’t seem like a complete disaster. I thought Matt Canada was more of a problem than Pickett was…
