so this is all guessing games and speculation. ...

The Saints deny that Kenny Vaccaro will be benched this week against the Chicago Bears.

"Well, I'd say this, two things: That's inaccurate -- it's one report that's been picked up by a multiple amount of people," Payton said. "I would say it's inaccurate -- he's going to play a ton for us. The role he plays -- I'll leave it at that. I would say it's very inaccurate."

I just wonder who are the 10 players that he called into his office for one on ones?

I really hope Brees was one of the 10 the coach had a talk with. He has done plenty to warrant a little criticism. You can't hold your players to a higher standard than you do your QB. If anything you hold your Qb to a higher standard as the rest of the team. Players need to know that nobody is above getting a pass for poor play and Brees has contributed just as much to our losses as any other player.

Question - if the locker room attitude is as bad as Strief says, does a benching matter to any of these pros when the cash keeps rolling on???

Probably not but it does to someone on their rookie contract. Not many of our D players are locked in, only the good players have long-term deals. Even JR can be cut next year without dead money.

The benching means nothing if he is active on game day, sorry Payton your not fooling anyone by benching him for the first play of the game lol... deactivate him or I call the bluff.

Good, he has sucked all year. Biggest disappointment on the team.

If Kenny has been benched for undisciplined play (as per the reports) does that mean that Junior will be benched next? He should be.

If the rumours of him being a locker room issue are true its a great move. It might just be the slap into reality he needs.

I sure Mike Bell is somewhere thinking ," I got cut for wearing the wrong cleats". Payton needs to rule with an iron fist again. He got alot more respect then than players just quitting on him now.
