Kellen Moore on Gayle Benson's comments: We all want the same thing

Saints owner Gayle Benson didn't pull any punches in her assessment of the team's start to the season in a speech on Tuesday.

Saints owner Gayle Benson expressed her dissatisfaction with the team's 1-4 start to the season during a recent speech. She stated that fans have the right to be upset and that she is committed to making the necessary decisions to improve the team's performance. Benson's comments seemed to signal that those in charge must demonstrate improvement or pursue new opportunities.

At the head coach Kellen Moore's Wednesday press conference, several questions were directed towards her speech. Moore responded by saying that he did not feel a heightened sense of urgency, as he recognized that everyone in the organization is dedicated to achieving better results. He emphasized, "We're all shooting for that. We’ve all got the same objectives and we just gotta get better moving forward."

However, Moore also noted that wanting the same things as Benson and actually achieving them are two distinct matters. This distinction highlights the importance of Moore and his staff proving their ability to deliver results before ownership considers other candidates for success.
