Re: Grading Payton

I have got to agree with Uncle Hulka.

They man delivered us our first SuperBowl. No way does he get anything other than a A+.

Re: Grading Payton

Gave him a "B" which is a very good grade. I agree with a lot of people who feel we depended on the "lucky bounce" way too often. We haven't had the lucky bounce in the two most recent years and we were a .500 team.

Just the same, we won the big dance - so he has a "B" minimum forever.

I totally disagree with you FrenzyFan. We stomped the **** out of every team we played up until the Washington game. We got behind in some of them, way behind in one (Miami), but we made adjustments and overcame our predicament. I don't call that luck. I call that good preperation. When Washington missed the field goal that sent us to overtime, When the Vikes got the penalty then threw the interception that sent us into overtime, That was not luck, their players couldn't handle the pressure and buckled. True, we could have lost both of those games with both of those, but we didn't because their team was not as prepared as we were to handle that kind of pressure. When Tracy Porter intercepted Peyton Manning in the Superbowl, that was not luck. That man spent days watching the tapes and recognized the play, took control and intercepted the pass, ran it back for a touchdown, sealing our victory. I didn't see any luck in our play this year. This team was prepared more than the rest, and came out and did what had to be done. And now we are the Defending Superbowl Champions!

Re: Grading Payton

I don't think Sean Payton would give himself an A+ and that is what I love about him. He and the team always talk about how they can be better rather than look what we did. I love the mentality that he brings to this team and I wish the fans would embrace it as well.

Re: Grading Payton

Well, I'm giving an A+. I will let the coach, and the players grade themselves as critically as they want. As a fan, I will give the coach the highest praise. He just gave me something, that I never thought i would see in my lifetime. A superbowl win.

Have fun pulling for the Dirty Birds.

I was born and raised in New Orleans, have been a Saints fan since the beginning and lived through all of the lean years. Let me remind you until this past season Payton's record was the same as Hasbeen's in his first four years and you have to admit we did have the ball bounce our way several times so I just don't think he deserves the A yet plain and simple. Let me remind you that Saints fans are a rare breed and certainly deserve their own opinion and aren't afraid to give it. You can't take that away from any Saints fan big boy. I'm out!

Golf and sex are about the only things you can enjoy without being good at them.
