If SP goes then there is no real reason to keep Drew either. package deal?

seriously i am a huge fan of both and I would hate to see either one go through the mess that will follow if one or the other left.

get all that you can now and pray for the best.

me i want the two to walk into the sunset, hand in hand, as saints

I don't know what sort of validity is in anything Mackel is talking about, but as for Payton not being cost effective, I doubt THAT would be a reason he is ousted. We all know coaches salaries aren't under the salary cap, and Benson has more than enough money. It's about whether or not he's doing a good job. Technically, anyone who isn't getting the job done is not cost effective, but it's really only about being effective when you're working for a billionaire.

I have wondered as I watch such little imagination with play calling, if Payton even cares that much. But I don't know for sure. The people who work with him, however, should know. And if they can see he's got eye's on some other job, then he absolutely HAS to go. That being said, it's comical that Mickey Loomis should be the one to make any such decision. He has a lot to do with our problems.

If I had a nickel for every time I heard that, the NFL would fine and suspend me.

I hope not...
Allen is not head coach material. He has had only marginal success at best and would be one of the least qualified options available. I would absolutely hate that pick.

Payton is most likely gone and I feel the sooner the better. We need to stop the bleeding now and start to repair the wound, personally I do not feel Payton will be apart of the solution moving forward. Honestly would not mind Payton staying however all of his buddies need to go and he will not get rid of them.

If he does end up leaving it won't be long before Brees ends up in a bears or broncos uniform.

It's time for Payton to go, highest paid coach in the league and our Superbowl win seems all but a distant memory, nearly 6 years ago now.

I'd hate to see Brees go, but if Payton is pushed, Brees will most likely be traded for more picks which I think is a HUGE necessity to rebuild this team correctly.

It's back to the Old Saints for now. It is an absolute shame what Loomis and this staff have done to this team. Personally I am also sick of the Benson's. I wish we could start from the owner and down the board from there. It is tough to watch and there is no accountability for us fans. They have been riding a high with us loving our team and padding their wallets. I feel as though we have been taking advantage of by this whole cast of characters and they did not own up to their part. We again will be the laughing stock of the league but it is something we are used to accepting. Bad it had to happen but let's pin the tail on the real donkey here.

We don't need a familiar HC if Sean is repalced. We need someone that will come in and cut out the rot and ineptitude.
