Undeterred by calls to be fired, Dennis Allen reveals the Saints’ next steps after their tough loss to the Broncos

This was a big blow for the New Orleans Saints coming into Week 7 on Thursday Night Football. Not only were the New Orleans Saints defeated, they were beaten by the Denver Broncos by 23 points on October 17th at Caesars Superdome. Now this has caused a stir among social media users and Saints fans who now want head coach Dennis Allen to be fired.

But it appears that Dennis Allen is not worried about his possible future ahead, as in a post-match press release he appeared to be unbothered by his sacking rumors. While speaking to the media, Allen told reporter John Hendrix on X: “The Saints will come back on Monday and it will be a normal day.“Well, that’s a pretty optimistic approach from Allen.

Furthermore, he further said: “I want the boys to get some rest. I want the boys to get some rest. The injured boys will spend the weekend in the building recovering.” It was a brutal defeat for New Orleans, but coach Dennis Allen’s comments seemed relaxed, as if his job security wasn’t in the dark.

Although the franchise scenario regarding the future of the Saints coach is not yet known, fans are expecting a layoff at the facility soon. And it’s not like those fans didn’t expect him to be fired since that loss. They asked for the same thing last year when the franchise failed to make the playoffs with a record of 9-8.

However, since the entire second half witnesses the “Fire Dennis Allen“Chants throughout the Superdome, it remains to be seen to what extent these Saints fans will be heard by the organization. Until then, the team is preparing for the next game, where there will be another tough battle after the Denver game.

Dennis Allen and his team are struggling with injuries!

The Saints will play their next duel on October 27, 2024 against the Los Angeles Chargers. Before that, however, they have one more battle to overcome and that is injuries. In the last game, the team suffered a setback when their defender Paulson Adebo suffered a serious injury while helping his teammate tackle the opponent. His leg was brutally injured and the athlete was subsequently carted off the field. Adebo was later ruled out of the game with a knee injury and was taken by ambulance to the medical center after undergoing X-rays. Now the team isn’t sure when he’ll be back.

In addition to him, quarterback Derek Carr is also injury-free as he missed his second game with an oblique strain. But wait! The injury list didn’t end there. The Saints’ key wide receivers – Chris Olave (concussion) and Rashid Shaheed (season-ending knee injury) – are also out.

And just when you think things couldn’t get any worse, they also lost offensive lineman Cesar Ruiz and linebacker Pete Werner. As a result, goals have continued to come for the team this season and it is now clear that the Saints have an uphill battle ahead.
