And even if it were Mcmahon's play, Payton obviously approved of it. It was stupid, and there is no defense having let it happen.

Design of a special teams play comes from the special teams coordinator, Greg McMahon. You think that Payton designs plays for the special teams when he does all the offensive play designs and calls? What would be the point of having a special teams coordinator then?

Greg McMahon the Gigantic Idiot would have recommended that play to Payton for that situation, and Payton signed off on that idiocy to use in that situation. Both need the blame for that one...Greg the Moron for design plus recommended that stupidity & Sean Payton for approving it to use.

This play ranks up there with AB's backwards pass in Jacksonville, but that was on AB. He turned that play into pure idiocy...last night's idiocy was the incompetence of Greg the Moron and the lack of judgement by Sean Payton.
