Go on record now before the hire is made Re: Sean Payton

  1. 1. If we hire Sean are you still a Panthers fan?

And yet he may be perfectly fine with Fitt. 

It's not like Loomis is going to come over from the Saints to join Sean. 🤣

It's expected Payton wants to bring someone like Jeff Ireland along with him, and possibly some other members of the Saints front office.

It makes sense. He'd have final say and people he knows doing the legwork.

Most proven candidate,  and Fitt is still part of the process. It does make sense that Sean bring guys he has worked with before. He can't bring Loomis, he is not an option. Sean may promote someone into the GM role, or he may ended up liking Fitts from the start.  Fitts is a proven talent evaluator, and has a good record so far for what he has been asked to do here, which isn't a whole lot different than what Sean is going to be asking of the GM. 

Regardless whom we end up with, we as fans don't get a voice in it.

The only way he could bring Ireland along would be as replacement GM.

Anything else would be a lateral move.

I used to really hate Sean Payton. I don't see how he could ever really bleed black and blue after all of the rivalries of the last 10+ years. 

But if there's one thing I can say I 100% hate more than Sean Payton it would definitely be losing. I feel like he gives us a good chance at making this team competitive year in and year out.

Meh, Sean Payton took the Saints from perpetual basement dwellers to frequent Super Bowl contenders.  We all know Tepper desperately needs someone just like Payton with the knowledge and experience to rapidly turn this team around.  Unfortunately, SP is the only coach that meets the requirements that is currently available for hire.

    • 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. 
    • Hiring Shula & his Cam save us playbook.
    • 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.
