Will Payton be able to have any contact or what? Surely he will seeing he needs to be part of the off season signings

I think that this is something the team will rally around. The two 2nd round picks isn't bad, I was expecting worse. Losing Payton for a year is tough but Carmichael called the plays last year after Payton hurt his knee and Spags is more than capable of stepping into the interim HC/DC job. We'll be fine.

I do think that within the next week, the front office needs to make a strong push to get Drew signed to a long term deal so he can show his support for the team and Coach Payton.

It will make it all the more sweeter in the end when Goodell has to hand us the Lombardi trophy in New Orleans at the end of the season.

Let's hope it winds up in court just like the supplemental ban. Those guys played for a couple of years.

Definitely!

Coach Brees what is your game plan?

I doubt Goodell will let Payton appeal...

Hope somehow we make it to the SB and we can get that commissioner ******* in Louisiana or Mississippi. Even if we don't get there he will not be welcome in this town after letting the Pat's off like he did for out and out cheating. Knew there was something to pay for what was going on but to me this is ridiculous. Every other team has been involved with this to some point so the punishment does not fit the crime. More motivation for the players to slap him back in his face. It will be all the sweeter to make it back despite these penalities

No.

Halo

Saints coach Sean Payton has been suspended without pay for one year effective April 1, executive vice president and general manager has been suspended without pay for eight regular-season games, and the club will lose two second-round draft picks and pay a $500,000 fine.
