Sean Payton’s ego has cost Saints

Cruize · 12-28-2013, 05:07 AM

I love Payton. His record speaks for itself, especially versus former Saints coaches. From a fans perspective, I just wish he would run the ball more and do less with the sub packages. The one thing that concerns me is, while the comparison is not close in regards to record, brains and ability as a Head Coach, after Haslett had success, he thought EVERY decision he made from that point on was golden. Even when it CLEARLY wasn't. Payton just seems to share that trait. Call it ego, whatever. You have to learn from your mistakes or you're doomed to repeat them. Plus, I do believe most coaches could win with Brees at QB. Just sayin.

I disagree with that assumption. Norv Turner obviously disagreed too.

How did that work out last year with Brees at QB?

Sorry... we need Sean Payton.

Maybe not most coaches but I'd guess a lot of them. We didn't have a head coach last year and finished 7-9 with the 2nd ranked offense in the league.

Last year disaster was 90% Spags misfit schemes.

We're better off with Payton, but I get what your saying. Even Mike Smith could win 10 games with this team.
