I hope he goes to an AFC team. It would feel bizarre to face him with another team.

His tenure will be hard to match, let alone top. There's a new sheriff in town and it's not Reggie Hammond, it's time to put our energy into the new regime. I thought we were in for darker times when Coach Mora's tenure ended but I digress.

Just sign somewhere, i want the picks
Its pretty obvious he just did't fancy building a new team without Brees. Hopefully either the Cowboys fall apart or Miami fail completely and bring in Brady and Payton next year

The team is pretty well already built. I believe what his good friend Jay Glazer said about Payton being burned out in general over the past couple of years and was just wanting to take some time off. Arguably the Saints are in a better position than most any team he would be trying to rebuild after firing their head coach. I just don't see Payton as the type to run away from a challenge.

Honestly, I have a hard time seeing any team giving up multiple 1st round picks for Payton. If they want him all they have to do is wait until his contract is up.

I hope he falls on his ***k unless he is with the Saints organization.

Yeah, I’m being petty about it too. I believe he quit on this team and this organization.

Of course he did, he quit football period.
I dunno man, we had him for 15 years and we enjoyed a lot of success, he left us with a team that can still compete... you are welcome to your own feelings I just don't understand the anger. If the team was gutted with no reason for a hope for this season I could maybe could see it but it doesn't look that way to me. He left us with a stocked cupboard and his hand picked successor looks like he's doing it right.

Exactly how I see it, as well!

He “quit” football and within a few months is already talking about coming back and not to the Saints. So if you ask me he didn’t quit football. He took a break from football. What he quit was the Saints. As far as how the team is composed, I’d give Jeff Ireland and Micky Loomis just as much credit for that, perhaps even more. Sean Payton didn’t bring in Tyrann Mathieu and Jarvis Landry. Sean Payton didn’t get Jameis Winston to re-sign. Sean Payton has obviously been plotting his way out for years now. Thanks for the Super Bowl, but the moment he goes to another team he’s an opp. We can revisit a love fest if he gets inducted into the HOF as a Saint.
