Let's just use Joe Burrow for example. For all the LSU Homers. And because he turned out to be awesome. Do you honestly think if we had Burrow he would have quit?

He did not retire or "step away". HE QUIT. Let that burn in. He not only quit but he GAVE UP!

It may feel like that, but in reality he gave it his all. We got one SB, shoulda been more. 16 hours + days for 16 years takes its toll. Those of us working jobs that work similar long ass hours can empathize. Let him rejoice in his well deserved time off. We as fans can be selfish, but we're people too . It's probably time for new blood anyway. Steelers do it all the time .

This sounds like something a falcon fan would post.

He claims he can't remember the last time he was wrong then proceeds to rip a member over a new coach coming in and keeping the current staff, particularly Defensive Coordinatior

"I quickly pointed out that Frank Reich of the Colts inhereted 3 of Josh McDaniels staff," three assistant coaches – defensive coordinator Matt Eberflus, offensive line coach Dave DeGuglielmo and defensive line coach Mike Phair – already had been hired during the post-season, ostensibly to work in concert with McDaniels.

It's okay though he has a built in out he did point out "Not to my knowledge!"

He's not beneath messaging you and delivering a few backhanded compliments, Keep taunting him, you'll see. Better yet "Play Devil's Advocate" some time. In his own words "I love to debate" you'll soon discover what caveat coves with being on "THE DEBATE TEAM"

Good grief dude, STFU. You've exceeded the ridiculousness of what you're being critical of.

When ya got a room full of cockroaches you can close the door and ingore 'em, but the problem doesn't just go away.

Speedo is a pesky little

. NPD must be met full on - clear lines must be drawn and defended. Speedo chose this route. There were options his ego would not accommodate.

Put me on iggy if you feel strongly. No offense taken.

I don't even care that he quit. I just dislike the fact we won't get compensation until next year and a personnel decision he made that lengthens out our rebuilding process. Sometimes a change is good for everyone(example Andy Reid in Philly). We've been a good football team but stuck in limbo for quite some time. I've been ready for new leadership and Payton quitting has actually re-energized my interest in Saints football.
