Payton just said he's not moving from New Orleans, but will be moving to a new home there.

In other words, coaching isn’t fun without a Hall of Fame QB.

Say what you want about Sean, he gave everything he had and breathed life into an entire region of long-suffering Saints fans.

I was here long before Sean Payton and I'll be here long after. Thank you for 16 incredible seasons.

We can now officially announce the most anticipated offseason in the last 16 years! I'm sure ownership will continue to pursue excellence.

Thanks for everything Payton. You helped gave this city hope when there was very little hope in sight. Wish you success with future endeavors. I figured this would happen when he quit the competition committee. I think he’s over the refs, Covid protocol, and overall hypocrisy of the NFL. Sometimes a man needs to step away for a while.
He will be back on the sidelines in 2023, just hope it’s in the AFC.
I think this is the beginning of the end of NFL football in Louisiana.
I hope Loomis doesn’t bail before he can help get out cap situation in better shape.
