Who is the Coach, Sean Payton or Jim Mora?!?

Ram the MF down their throat and remind them who's Daddy...

I know it pisses me off to, strato, we won that game. It was an easy kick, we just missed. Never throw the baby out with the bathwater. Kid has a leg

We are the Saints... I think Payton forgot that. 1st down you run the ball and make the other team stop us.

Tomorrow Hartley is looking for a new job.

When Payton opted to kick on 1st down, I was happy...didn't want to take a chance on a fumble or a pick. When he missed, I changed my mind.

Hindsight is 20/20.

But considering, the odds of him missing the kick were better than a fumble or pick.

I'd rather have the ball in Brees' hands for 3 more plays than a shaky kicker for one.

your taking about a shaky kicker that made a clutch kick in the NFC champs game. I mean there is a 95% or more that most kickers make that kick.

So you put him in if Brees and our offense don't score in 3 plays, or even more if we get a 1st down.

I trust Brees and his boys on 1st down at the 12 more than just about any kicker.

I didn't consider him shaky until after today. He kicked us into the SB...and didn't he kick the winning kick only last week?

He missed 40% of his FG's before today.

I'd call that shaky.
