Why does no one see the obvious - Sean Payton gave up. He didn't retire/step away

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.

I get your sentiment Papz, but the “limbo” you describe is a VERY successful team that could not get Over the hump because the NFL screwed us too often. I don’t want to revert to the years of the “Aints” and Mike Ditka where we were a laughing stock. Some people forget how easy it is to slip back into that stage of crappiness. Many, MANY franchises would love to have been in the “limbo” or whatever some want to call it that the Saints have existed in over the last 16 years. Yet some like bako want to ***** about how we weren’t more successful. The entitlement some fans feel amazes me
