Saints Fire Coach Roberts in Major Cutdown Show
In a major cutdown, New Orleans Saints owner John Mecom Jr. dismissed head coach J. D. Roberts and named offensive coordinator John North as successor. Roberts, 40, led the club since mid 1970, posting 2-11-1 in 1970 and 2-11-1 records in 1972, with 4-8-2 in 1971, as the 49-man roster deadline loomed and many players were waived or traded across the league.
