Is Darren Rizzi LEGIT Full-Time Candidate For New Orleans Saints Head Coaching Opening?

37 comments

1. First

2. If he continues to win they should give him a shot

3. Did he just say "feel goods in the belly"? 😂

4. Unpopular opinion but I’d avoid a Denver broncos dead money situation and draft two o lines and two receivers in the first 3 rounds and give Carr the best possible personnel to make a run similar to the first two weeks of this season before we dump him after the end of next season. Start off loading older defensive players and draft defense in later rounds of this draft

5. I say he is legit but he should do something about the emperor of empty yard😂

6. I say he is legit but he should do something about the emperor of empty yard😂

7. I love Rizzi but we need to start over from scratch. Hopefully the next coaching regime keeps him.

8. No!! Stop hiring in house we need a change in culture

9. Hello Matt, You always mention "Leave a comment, I love to interact"
   I've not heard anyone mention How much Rizzi salary increased when he was promoted &
   where is D.A now, Are the Saints still paying D.A through the end of the Year or ???

10. Did the organization learn anything about promoting interim Dennis Allen? And — they probably need to hire him because no one on any list you have mentioned will want to be in N.O.

11. If he can get a win for Rams game I hope Ms. Benson gives him a very hard look.

12. If he has a solid winning record and looking good doing it then he is worth a shot? I wouldn’t mind seeing John Gruden.

13. I have said it 10 times already!!! NOOOOOO!!!!! Do not promote him, or promote from within!!!!! Its going to be a disaster!! Go outside the organization in the off-season and try to lure Ben Johnson away from the Lions!!! Rizzi is a good guy, but please do not promote him to Head Coach, or we will be in the same position again next year!!!!!

14. Should have known it would be a negative take lmfao

15. Granted he is getting the players to play for Rizz but the season isn't over yet. No decision needs to be done until the last game is played !

16. No more than 1 year deal no matter who it is unless it's a proven coach

17. How do you know they’re not gonna win out.. if they lost 7 games they can win 7 games how the hell you know they’re not gonna win out.. no one saw them losing 7 in a row.. truth is you don’t know

18. Everybody loves the guy, but it may be a little early to decide.

19. Bring back espn new orleans

20. You get a new culture outside of the building. Why keep hiring guys from the same building

21. Andy reed has Patrick Mahommes.. who is the best head coach is a matter of opinion…Rizzy is the best coach for this team. He energizes and empires motivates delegates and players believe him. Your throwing out names but do you know they’re the best for this team.. no you don’t.. you can’t know cause it hasn’t happened… open your eyes man

22. Andy reed has Patrick Mahommes.. who is the best head coach is a matter of opinion…Rizzy is the best coach for this team. He energizes and inspires,motivates delegates and players believe him. Your throwing out names but do you know they’re the best for this team.. no you don’t.. you can’t know cause it hasn’t happened… open your eyes man… you talk about football like your talking about your finances

23. NO. We need new blood. There will be plenty of better candidates out there once the season is over.

24. You guys are nuts😂

25. If he wins out, hire him. If he loses one or two, hire him. If he folds the rest of the season then move on

26. You be two cupcake teams now y'all want to get him a head coaching job stop the buffering😂

27. That's why the New Orleans saints ain't going to never go nowhere guys like you and your damn platform with the bulshit you be too cupcake guys now y'all want him to be the head coaching job man stop that crap😂

28. If Rizzi can create a winning season then he deserves a hard look as a permanent HC.

29. Not a LONG TERM SOLUTION

30. No more in house hires

31. Rizzie is building colture now, so stuff it!

32. He won 2 games. GTFOH 😂😂. Saints still no PLAYOFFS 😂😂😂

33. I don’t agree with Matt on a lot of his takes. For my money, he’s too narrative driven and doesn’t take everything into context like I think he should but I agree with him here. I’ve been wanting the saints to hire a younger offensive minded head coach that’s comes off a tree from a modern successful offensive system. I’d say klint kubiak but I don’t think he has the right temperament to be a head coach. Rizzi has that temperament but he lacks the history as a play caller and I’m concerned any decent coordinator he hires won’t last long and then what. He deserves an interview if he’s able to keep the players motivated the rest of the season but I’m skeptical and hope the saints ultimately go outside the organization.

34. If he keeps winning until the end of the season I’d give him a one season prove it deal

35. If we don’t win the division will there even be a shot at playoffs? I’d rather tank and get a good pick but it’s good rizz is changing the culture

36. Dan Campbell at Detroit. He got away. And then the Saints are left with Allen. Blah! Don't let Rizzi get away! As long as he keeps winning, that is proof enough. Isn't that the point…….winning? We somehow lose the good ones and keep the bad ones.

37. If we win out and Atlanta loses to Washington, chargers, and Minnesota. And Tampa only have to lose to the chargers and us for the saints to jump both and win the division. But it starts with LA
