Jump on the Brees' fault bandwagon

It's not just Brees' guaranteed money.

So what IS the difference between this and last year? Easier schedule? (yes) New offense? (no) Missing Robert Meachem? (maybe) Not enough team football knowledge? (obviously)

If Sean Payton is that critical to the success of the team, such that, without much change in personnel or scheme, offense (and defense) has dropped production that significantly, then we are paying too much for what's on the field and in the staff rooms.

Its going to be blown up next year anyway, get on with it. Rip that band aid off.

"Paying too much for what's on the field?" Huh? We are under the salary cap. The 49ers and Falcons are both in worse cap shape than us, with less room, they are paying more for what they have "on the field." Are they "paying too much" too?

What we are clearly seeing this year has nothing to do with paying too much for players, it has EVERYTHING to do with what happens when you don't pay for a head coach, because he is SUSPENDED.
