It's a theory that people tend to rise to the level of their own incompetence. 0-what?? in the playoffs, for example. Maybe Haslett is good at one thing – coaching LBs. Let's hope so. With Dansby Burfict, and Maualuga, I don't think veteran leadership would let him screw things up too much before they became vocal about it. If not to the public, then to Marvin and Mike.
Haslett actually won a playoff game in his first season with the Saints and I imagine he could've won a couple more had he spent another 7 seasons there. You're right though. We only need Haslett to coach LBs, and even if he's a poor coach, I trust our veteran leadership to get their job done regardless.
The training, nutrition, medicine, fitness, playbooks and rules evolve. The athlete does not.
