Dennis Allen took over as the head coach of the New Orleans Saints in 2022 after Sean Payton decided to step away from coaching. While he hasn't been the most popular coach during his tenure, Saints safety Tyrann Mathieu recently spoke up on behalf of his coach.

Mathieu sounded off on X, noting that Allen is one of the best coaches he's been around. Demario Davis also responded to the slander with the shouting emojis, signaling that he agrees with his teammate.

DA's demeanor gets him a bad reputation from fans but it can be a demeanor that his players can often appreciate. We need an alpha on the offensive side of the ball and then i really do think Dennis Allen can have success in this league.

Players liking a coach doesn't make the coach actually a good coach. It means they are happy with him and clearly from how they play throughout the last couple of years, aren't that driven to win. They don't seem to take the underperformances personally.

Most of these guys are there and care about getting their check, not winning championships, so forgive many of us if we don't care if the players like the coach or not.

ok just because you like him as a person and a defensive coach doesnt mean he is a good head coach or fit to lead a team

DA should have hired ex HCs on both sides of ball. This is his last shot as HC. He needs to swing for the fences. It's too late, he will be replaced in January.

The Saints have played hard through week 18 in both seasons under CDA. Wasn't always the case with Payton

This is what good leaders do.

Also, defensive players likely see him in a different light vs the offensive guy

He vouched for LSU DC Matt House as well, don’t trust his judgement…

The Honey Badger is smart. Never criticize the guy who controls your paycheck.
