Bring Spags back!!!!!

I wouldnt complain if we broughht back Spagnuolo. However, I would feel bad for Fewell. He didnt necessarily fail at his job...he won us a SB

I'd imagine they would have done a better job than Spags. Like I said, there's a difference between not doing well and being the worst ever. If Spags was as good a coach as people think, even if NO still had the worst defense in the NFL this season it shouldn't have ranked as the worst defense that was ever fielded in the history of the NFL.

I doubt it. No matter how good of a coach you are if you don't have the players you won't do well. Good coaches have had bad years (maybe even the worst Defense in the league years) when they don't have people to implement their philosophy or scheme.

We'll never know. But their defense was ranked 24th in 2011 and dropped to 32nd in 2012

An even more objective comparison for the NO defense.

2011
369 yards/game 21.2 points/game

2012 (with Spags)
440 yards/game 28.4 points per game

Thats a huge difference (to the worst) in 1 season with essentially the same players.

Minus a few key players and the HC. Losing Sean Payton effected the whole team IMO. Not to mention the whole Bountygate thing over their heads. Spags was set up to fail.
