“He was a good coach, but sacking him was the best option; we deserve better.” Saints’ incredible RB Alvin Kamara (AK41) gave his humble opinion over Dennis Allen’s dismissal. He went on by saying, “At the end of the day, we play this game to win championships, and as a team, we all hold ourselves to the highest standard. Dennis is a good guy, a knowledgeable coach, but sometimes the message just doesn’t get through, and you need a change to ignite something new. It’s not personal—it’s about what’s best for the team and for the future of the franchise.”
Kamara acknowledged that Allen had his strengths, especially as defensive coordinator, but felt the team had plateaued under his leadership. “We’ve had some good moments, no doubt,” he continued. “But in the NFL, consistency and the ability to elevate your team year in and year out is what separates the good from the great. We weren’t getting the results we needed.”
The Saints, who had a solid defense but struggled offensively, especially in key moments, were in need of a reset. Kamara, as one of the team’s most vocal leaders, felt the shift in leadership could be the spark they needed. “We’ve got talent. We’ve got guys who can make plays. But we need someone who can bring out the best in us, who can push the right buttons and get us to play to our full potential.”
Though the decision to fire Allen wasn’t easy, Kamara believes it was the right one for the long-term success of the team. “It’s always tough to see a coach go, but this is business, and we have to move forward,” Kamara concluded. “We deserve a chance to win, and that’s what we’re focused on now.”
