Saints owner Gayle Benson attended practice today and hugged coach Kellen Moore, says after she said she won’t accept the way the team is playing. Moore said he and Benson are on the same page.
“It’s always good to see Mrs. B,” Moore said after practice. “She likes to pop in and catch practice here and there, so always good to see her. She’s always looking great and always supportive.”
Moore tried to cool down any talk that he and his boss are not on the same page, given Benson’s comments about the 1-4 Saints.
“We see each other throughout these seasons and it was great,” Benson said.
Moore said he has talked to Benson since she made her public comments about the team’s performance being unacceptable and he feels confident in the direction they’re going.
“We talked throughout the week and so we’re all good,” Moore said. “We’re all just trying to reach the same goal. We all want to win football games and so we’re all working toward that. I think this was a good week for our guys, coaches, players. A really good week of practice.”
Soon, Moore is going to need to show that his team can translate good practices into good games, or else Benson will be more likely to give him a pink slip than a hug.
