Today Joe Vitt said

Regarding whether he expects the Saints' tackling to improve:

“That is why we work on it. There is an expectancy level.”

Meanwhile the NFL hasn't quite yet determined the expectancy level for just when Vitt's six game suspension to start the season will begin.

METAIRIE, La. – Acting head coach Joe Vitt knows his six-game suspension will begin once the regular season starts.He just doesn’t know exactly when in Week 1; a league source said Wednesday the precise date the suspension begins is still being discussed.

The Saints’ final preseason game is Aug. 30.  NFL rosters must be cut down to 53 players on Aug. 31 and a practice squad must be announced on Sept. 1. The first regular season game is Sept. 9.

But whenever that might happen it looks like the Saints have settled on an interim-interim coach for that particular.. um.. interim.
Metairie, La. - Saints Executive Vice President/General Manager Mickey Loomis has designated Offensive Line/Running Game Coach Aaron Kromer to replace Assistant Head Coach/Linebackers Joe Vitt during his absence.

Saints players and coaches are looking forward to the unveiling of Vitt's "I also expectancy you do to your job" banner at the practice facility at some yet to be determined time in the coming weeks.
