That better be a joke.
Even a a top 5-10 in the second isnt worth it

Yeah I am frustrated. I have no clue why everyone outside of New Orleans wants him to leave. I can only summarize that its because they have nothing else to do but speculate. They want SP to say something, wtf is he going to say? I am not on the get rid of SP bandwagon. I remember Saints football before 2006 and to know this might be coming to an end doesn't give me warm fuzzy feelings.

But at the same time; if there is a coaching change it could be for the better... It's not like Payton is the same coach he was back in 2009...

For the record I hope he stays. Coaches like him only come around about once in a lifetime. At least in my lifetime anyway and Im near 40.
If he does leave hope we can Harbaugh

It's not up to SP. Loomis has to grant other teams permission to speak with SP. If they can work something out then they can talk about compensation. It's a strange situation because you technically can not trade for a coach but it's been done. Gruden costs 2 rd 1's, 2 rd 2's, and 8 million in cash. I can see SP bringing a rd 2 this year and a rd 4 that could turn into a rd2 next. With that I would be VERY happy! Drew will go no where unless someone is willing to give multiple picks this year and next. If both go we could end up with 3 extra pics this year and 3 next.
I say keep Drew and throw away SP. Philly, San Fran and Indy want SP. Fran and Philly may try a SP/Drew trade. If that is the case I would want this years rd 1,2,3 and next years rd 2. But what the crap do I know.

I didn't know the Iggles were interested in Payton; although I don't think SP would even consider leaving the Saints for Philly.

Im not against your double trade if they want to go. If use well that trade is a franchise rejuvenator. Id rather keep both snd make another run though. But if he goes it better not be Marrone. Id rather take a risk with a young hungry coach who could either win the lot or bust out. I dont want to become the Rams 8-8

I just don't see him going anywhere. How can you let a coach like that get away. GM needs to answer some questions as to why we are headed into cap troubles. He also needs to work with Sean better and get this D shored up. If Sean is let go or traded out of NO. He'll be a 49er. We can't let that happen.

burningmetal · 01-04-2016, 10:54 AM

Marrone should be automatically scratched off any team's head coaching list. The guy quit on the Bills. Just quit... He got an opportunity as an NFL head coach and with a team that had some talent, he just walked away, thinking he could get a better job. He was wrong.

Why should we suddenly consider him just because he used to coach under Payton? The guy has earned zero respect. I don't understand the speculation about him at all.

foreverfan · 01-04-2016, 10:59 AM

Didn't Tom Benson already say that Peyton isn't going anywhere and since Brees in under contract
this thread doesn't hold water.
