Maybe he wanted out of this dumpster fire. He didn't want to play for Rex. Definitely wouldn't want to play for his "fully pregnant" twin brother. I, for one am glad for Mario. Soooo, who's the whupping boy this year, Gilmore?! Rex screwed up the D-line last year, really screwed it up. This year it's the db's. Remember how bad the Saints were in pass coverage under Rob?! Well, what did you expect this year?

On the season, the Saints rank last in nearly every major defensive statistical category, including points (315), yards (4,259), yards per play (6.7), passing touchdowns (28), net yards per pass attempt (7.9), and rushing yards per carry (5.0). New Orleans has an opponent’s passer rating allowed of 116.6, better than the passer rating of Tom Brady (111.1) and every other quarterback this season.
This is Ryan’s 12th season in the N.F.L., and he has consistently fielded below-average defenses. Among the 18 coaches who have been defensive coordinators for at least 10 seasons since 1990, Ryan’s defenses have allowed more points per game and more yards per game to opponents than any other:
Rob Ryan: 23.9 points per game; 351.2 yards per game
Jim Haslett: 23.8 ppg; 339.0 ypg
Bob Slowik: 22.9 ppg; 330.8 ypg

* The defense the last three games. The Bills have given up 100 points in the three game losing streak to Miami, New England and Seattle. They gave up 103 points in the first 6 games of the season.
But yea, we need continuity.
