Sources: Sean Payton approaches Bill Parcells about coaching Saints in 2012

On the fence on this one.... but if SP deems it could work, why not? There is no denying the "Tuna" would command the respect of the players.

There is no replacement for coach Payton !

NFL Network is reporting that Payton will meet with Parcells later this week

We do not need an egotistical power-hungry coach coming out of nowhere and screwing up everything we've built. No no no!

Just like Beastmode already stated, this situation is not comparable to what the Saints went through this past season with SP's injury - he was still heavily involved in game planning and play calling.

I think it's a great idea!

I think Carmichael would be a continuation of what the team already knows and, a year of Parcells could damage the Saints philosophy more than help.... then there would need to be a transition back to Payton...

Also we do not know what sort of a bond would be between Brees and Parcells...

I have question. Do we think the NFL WILL LET THIS HAPPEN. Only because of the relationship between coach Payton and Parcells.

I think I like it more than I don't. Anybody who's working his ass off isn't going to have any trouble with Parcells. Let Spags run his D. Let Pete run the O, and let Bill guide the ship. The NFL would be powerless to stop it.

I'm for it if for no other reason than it would probably piss off Goodell, and I'm for anything that screws with Roger's little pea brain.
