Payton makes everyone hate the Saints

A sign of the times when a--holes pretty much run the show all around. The trolls, the hardliners, the a--holes, the turds in the punchbowl -- these are their days in the sun. Their successful defense rests on the phrase "That's just me being me."

Valid, but I can't think of a single NFL coach other than Payton that does this sort of s--t. And Payton isn't the youngest coach in the league.

Not trying to single you out. It just bewilders me how often over the last several years this place has borderline turned into a form of North Korean state run media in that people immediately trash former players even if letting them walk was to the detriment of our team. It's okay to put a lens on FO failures. It's also rather absurd how fans here can so casually flip between regurgitating anti-player hot takes, and then try to hop back on the wagon on gamedays. I guess some of this is just the nature of modern sports fandom, but it's still cringe.

You saying cringe all the time is very cringe. Stop cringing ya cringe

I agree, and I'm glad he's the only one doing it (at least at this time). I'm talking about the idea that society, in general, has kind of not just allowed, but encouraged A**holes to rise to positions of leadership or fame at a level that's quite astounding.

Who cares? You guys are acting like he’s punching babies, and most of you all would love it if Rivera taunted the other team on game day. Payton is an elite play caller and super bowl winning coach. I’d gladly deal with his antics for a SB trophy.

Seriously. Is anyone actually offended? I swear people like to get offended over the possibility of someone else getting offended. Nobody cares.

    • Like many of the old heads, I’ve been here for a long time.  I got a lot of respect for everyone on this board for your dedication to this team.  We’ve all been through it during the tougher years. At this point in life, I’m not one to judge anyone’s level of dedication, or their reasons why anymore.  Time, and a lot of bad football, will do that.  For me, it’s simple.  We share a common bond.  For that, I love and appreciate all of you crazy SOB’s. For me, last season was at a minimum, entertaining.  BY lead a young team to multiple come from behind 4th qtr wins.  That showed me heart, and that he has the clutch gene.  That’s the wildcard intangible.  For me, that was fun to watch even  if it was mindbogglingly frustrating at times.  Over the past two seasons, we have progressively built a better team around him.  On paper, the defense should be better this season.  That’ll help.  Let’s see what he can do as the other guys continue to develop too.  Besides, his contract is cheap for a few more years, and we just made some smart cap decisions during the draft. Let’s see how it shakes out.

    • I would very much liked to have seen Jake Delhomme's career if Tommy Jone no hurt Jake.  I just know that roster and the leadership were destined to hit paydirt but Jake was never the same after the elbow injury, and unfortunately he was the sole reason they didn't make it back to the big one.  I think that 08 team was the best in the league, and Jake masked his inability well all season til the Arizona game put it all on display.  I'll go back to the season prior even and say the 07 team was primed to be a competitor.  Jake was off to a fantastic start that year (for a Panthers QB).  They may have been a championship caliber club for a few seasons after 08 too.
