BleedinBlue Posted October 5, 2015 Share Posted October 5, 2015 Well...yeah, anyone who posts a song by Bread is pretty gay, especially "I wanna make it with you" - lol But Spags certainly requires some lovin. The defense has been extraordinary given the pieces he was handed and things like his best player blowing his hand off during the offseason. He's done a super, super job with this team so far.

It's a big leap to HC, so I understand that but he was not good as a DC with the Saints, as you say. Whatever it is, I'm glad he remembered how to do this when he came back to us!

Allstarjim Posted October 5, 2015 Share Posted October 5, 2015 That Saints team wasn't even fighting at all because of the Bountygate suspensions and being without Sean Payton for a year. They were without any real talent to begin with, and they simply folded early. And the Rams... any HC is going to have a short career when these are your starting QBs: 2009: Marc Bulger, Kyle Boller, Keith Null - record: 1-15 2010: Sam Bradford (rookie QB) - record: 7-9 2011: Sam Bradford (10 games), AJ Feeley (3), Kellen Clemens (3) - record: 7-9 Pretty hard to go 7-9 in the NFL with a rookie QB in 2010, and a sophomore QB that couldn't stay healthy with backups of Feeley and Clemens. He's never been as bad a coach as people like to think. He went to the Ravens and helped their defense as Secondary coach, was very good, and was great with the Eagles as linebackers coach. He was and is a great defensive coach. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Iceman_NYG Posted October 7, 2015 Share Posted October 7, 2015 Sheeesh....Marc Bulger....to think they replaced Warner with Bulger thinking he was the next best thing to sliced bread and canned beer!!....and then Warner goes to another SB with the Cards.....

Nas Posted October 7, 2015 Share Posted October 7, 2015 Four games into the season and they're already lining up to give him a handjob I was giving him a handjob in the offseason... It doesn't take much to see the difference in how the defense is playing... with adequate DEs... remember Fewel had Tuck and JPP... Also, don't forget he'd already earned his stripes with us fans...

Mr. P Posted October 7, 2015 Share Posted October 7, 2015 Didn't Vilma sit out like an entire season? Other players were affected? Their HC suspended for an entire season? It was overturned, Vilma played 11 games that season, missed first six weeks because he was on the PUP list. The other players suspended(also overturned) weren't on the saints by then.

Allstarjim Posted October 7, 2015 Share Posted October 7, 2015 They still had a dearth of talent on that defense and HC's suspension was not overturned, Payton had to sit out the year, and that was a big deal on that team. Payton is their leader and I believe they just didn't play as hard (or as well) for Aaron Kromer and Joe Vitt. It also was weird how they handled that, Kromer was interim coach for the first six games, then when Joe Vitt's (who was also interim head coach through camp/preseason) had concluded his 6 game suspension, he resumed his role as interim head coach for the final 10 games. It was a weird set of circumstances and I think a big part of that team just quit on that season. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mr. P Posted October 7, 2015 Share Posted October 7, 2015 Lots of factors, but Spags still gets some responsibility for that being the worst defense of all-time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zelmo Posted October 7, 2015 Share Posted October 7, 2015 If you wanna get on Spags for a lackluster 3 years in St. Louis it's one thing but to get on him for what happened in New Orleans is plain ridiculous. I can't remember a situation more dysfunctional and doomed to fail than that years Saints team. -Z Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
