Grading Payton

mikesaintfan · 02-27-2010, 03:20 PM

After 4 years SP has taken us to the championship game and now won a superbowl. He does call some curious plays but they are gambles which a coach needs to do sometimes. What grade does he deserve from the average fan like all of us?

Its kind of hard not to give payton an A, seen as he delivered the first superbowl and means so much to the franchise. I think 2007 and 2008 seasons, everone realizes they were mistakes on all fronts, from front office, to free agent signings to even when we couldnt stop anyone defensively.
However what he did to correct those mistakes this year proved pivotal, with him as our O coordinator aswell as the head coach, Our offense has been number 1 the past 3 out of 4 years. He is a genious, it did not take a genious to realize we needed some help on D. But he did not stop at a few signings, he went full out with greg williams and pulled out all the stops.

I'm so happy with this year and how we are looking ive gotta give him an A

A+ there is no one better !!!

A+ Bottom line, what else do you want from him?
I questioned the play calling along with everyone else, but the guy just won the Super Bowl

I believe he deserves a solid A grade. I admire his ability to take risks and think he does an excellent job managing this team.

Started out great, then had a couple crappy seasons, then finished big. I admire the fact that he understands and learned from mistakes of the past. Payton is simply the best, A plus for now. Of course, none of this would be possible without Mickey Loomis, a guy who was nothing more than a "bean counter" into one of the most prolific GM's in the game.

The Saints get their first Superbowl win in their history. Payton gets an A+. So does Loomis. So does Brees.So does G Williams. So does Vilma. So does P.Thomas. So does Colston. So does Sharper. ........

How can it be anything else but A+. Sean Payton took a rag tag bunch of players, many of them rejects from all around the league, brought them all together, and did what none of us thought we would ever see in our lifetimes. He took his team to Miami and won Superbowl XLIV! What else does he have to prove?
