During the offseason prior to the 2021 season, according to Glazer, Payton seemed to have lost the usually fire that he had always seen. Perhaps the pressures of the first year of the COVID pandemic was having a toll. Regardless, Glazer said he knew that Payton was seriously considering at least a temporary retirement following that season.

I'm in full agreement Guido. He didn't leave because the system was wrong for him. He left because he was tired of coaching against Roger Goodell and the referees! He needed time off to recharge his batteries and to come up with more clever ways to make Roger Goodell look like the inept money loving bully that he is.

Honestly, Sean Payton was burned out and exhausted from having to overcome all the challenges of the injuries and the never ending negativity from the supposed Bounty gate. Which, of course was total BS.
