The Tampa Bay Buccaneers put 50 points on the board a week ago. This week, Sean Payton and the Denver Broncos embarrassed the New Orleans Saints on Drew Brees’ induction night.

It’s been over a month since the Saints have been victorious. Since defeating the Dallas Cowboys in Week 2, the team has dropped 5 straight games.

Alvin Kamara understands what situation the Saints have put themselves in. Everyone should be under pressure, starting with Dennis Allen then trickling down: “The other reality of the business is when you start losing too much, everybody gets on the hot seat. The coaches, when coaches leave then players leave, then personnel.”

Who knows how hot Allen’s seat is, but it should be on fire.

Kamara articulated it perfectly. “When you get too many L’s and you don’t produce enough wins, everybody’s job is on the line.”

That’s how it should be. This is a results business. Allen’s results tell a pretty convincing story. He wasn’t successful in Oakland, and he hasn’t been successful in New Orleans.

The problem could be there’s not enough pressure being placed on Allen. The mediocrity of the Saints seems to be accepted. It’s been that way for a couple of years.

Dennis Allen probably isn’t on the hot seat, but therein lies the problem in New Orleans. Accepted mediocrity.
