Stop the madness!!!.I dont want to wear paper bags over my head anymore!

You're missing the point. This isn't about what kind of coach Payton is as a whole. It's about the poor job he has done with his offense, this year. And it is also about his inability to get his team up for road games, with the exception of '09.

We've lost some embarrassing games this year, and there is too much talent for this to keep happening. If not for the job Rob Ryan has done with the defense, we'd be talking about the worst team in the Payton era. I can't really give Payton much credit for being 10-5. No one denies that he has turned the franchise around, but we're too far along to be thinking about the paper bag days. This team has far more talent, and shouldn't be excused from the way it has played down the stretch.
