Brian Billick says Sean Payton should consider giving up play-calling duties | NOLA.com

It's obvious.

We've all been saying it for years, way too predictable.

1st and 10 run for 1 yard
2nd and 9 pass to full back for 2 yards
3rd and 7 screen pass that goes for 2 yards.
Punt
Repeat.

Let's see:

Brian Billick: Games over .500: 16
Super Bowl Wins: 1
Overall Championships: 1
Conference Championships: 1
Division Championships: 2

Sean Payton: Games over .500: 30
Super Bowl Wins: 1
Overall Championships: 1
Conference Championships: 1
Division Championships: 3

Not that I don't agree with him, but it doesn't take an "expert" to get to that conclusion.

And give it to who? That's a silly statement. Payton is better than anyone we bring in to call plays.

He just needs to refocus his play calling. Is he still dating hot young things?

How about Carmichael who has already demonstrated he is a better play caller.

Not silly at all. Pete Carmichael is the Saints offensive coordinator. He has had play calling duties for the team for a season and a half over the past 5 seasons. I don't have the numbers right in front of me but I'm almost certain that the Saints offense was #1 or #2 in both yards and points during his tenure.

Payton calls plays out of ego, not out of necessity. He should have given up that job when he came back in 2013 after seeing the outstanding job Carmichael did in 2012 while Payton was on suspension.

I'm all for it, anything that might turn things around. SP is to damn stubborn though even though Carmicheal called plays in 2011 and 2012 and the offense run smoothly

Sean Payton will bring this offense down with him.... He should focus on the head coaching side of thing it would be nice to see a offense that I didn't know what play was being ran next....
