Saints finally say adios to Ryan
 

:clap:

Saints fired DC Rob Ryan.
The only thing surprising about this move is how long it took. Coach Sean Payton and Ryan have never gotten along, and Ryan's defenses have woefully underperformed the last two seasons. New Orleans finished 31st in yards allowed last season, and they are dead last in both points allowed and yards allowed this year. The Saints are on pace to give up the most touchdown passes in NFL history. Ryan's name will likely help him land another gig, but there is enough evidence to support the claim he is simply not a very good coordinator. Defensive assistant and former Raiders coach Dennis Allen will likely take over coordinator duties. It is a change which should have happened in January.

Surprised it took this long. The Saints defense is Greg Robinson bad, and that's not an exaggeration. Their numbers so far in November are outrageous. They're allowing about 40 points and almost 5 TD passes a game.

Yeah, but they really don't have much talent on Defense.

This D is 2002 Chiefs bad...

Yep. And now the league favors offense even more. Sucks for them.

Sounds like Marvez and PFT are on opposite sides of this one.

Maybe we can get them to trade for Sutton. Perhaps they have a football they could give us in exchange.

He was fired.

Now he's out and Dennis Allen is in, per PFT.

Has anyone ever cashed in on a name more than Rob Ryan?

Opportunity for MU

The Saints are a complete disaster.

Let's just hope that Brees doesn't end up in Denver next year when the inevitable roster purge and front office/coaching staff firings take place in January.

Gunther Cunningham?
