Payton "very upset"

AlaskaSaints · 08-17-2014, 12:24 AM

Jimmy is too big for his britches. Someone is gonna put him on his ass pretty soon. He's drawing too much attention, where once he was quietly confident and talented, he's about to become a prima-donna.

I have to wonder why that describes most players out of the Miami Hurricanes system. Do they go to a class that teaches them how to be a self-centered jerk?

Graham is just one of those high intensity players. And although he achieved nothing against Seattle last year, he was mixing it up with their players before the game.

He a pilot. He feeds off adrenaline.

He wont do it during the regular season. I'm fairly certain of that. Preseason? He'll take his lumps if he can get the crowd riled up.

He's the best TE in the game. I'll take his immaturity with his excellent abilities.

It was a real stinker all around. few bright spots for a couple guys fighting to make the team.

next game should be all hands on deck then i will judge the state of affairs.

It's time for Grambeaux to move on and come up with another TD celebration. His first down one will do for now.

Seriously y'all bunch of Goodells, stop it. It is preseason. Win or lose in preseason, it don't count on the regular season standings or the playoffs. Jimmy put up a show for the crowd. End of story.

I never would have imagined Jimmy and Payton hollering at each other. It is Paytons obligation to get on players whose actions are detrimental to the team. Jimmy has no excuse to trade words with his coach. Jimmy may resent Payton saying he was a TE.

Yeah, the dunking doesn't bother me. He was playin to the crowd and showin Goodell how much we all respect him.

Shoutin at Payton is another thing all together. He needs to shut up and listen. The sideline is no place to question the coach.

METAIRIE, La. -- Jimmy Graham stopped short of saying he regrets his goalpost dunks from Friday night, which drew two penalty flags and led to a shouting match between the New Orleans Saints tight end and coach Sean Payton on the sideline.

But Graham insisted Sunday that he "would never do anything to hurt the team" in the regular season.

"You know, for four years and however many touchdowns, I've always dunked it. And I just gotta stop doing that now," said Graham, though he made it clear that he's still not on board with the NFL's new rule to ban his preferred touchdown celebration -- which he said is "not hurting anyone."

For any of you that think there was any to do with the exchange between Graham and Payton after the second dunk, read this article. I saw the actual interview and you can tell that Graham has nothing but total respect for Payton. Move on because there is nothing there.
