I might be the only one but I wanted him gone. He shopped himself (weather you believe it or not) around to multiple teams. If he thought about leaving I say go. I want a coach that wants to be here.

If you watched that entire press conference and still came away thinking that, nothing said on this website will change your mind.

I don't believe the "weather" had anything to do with it.

But, you are crazy if you think he shopped himself around. No, not crazy. Stupid is more like it. It makes absolutely no sense. He couldn't go anywhere and have more power, more pay, more access to his kids and more affection from the fan base and ownership than New Orleans. What the heck would he have to gain? Nothing.

You said it yourself. You wanted him gone. Why? Sean Payton is far and away the best coach in Saints history and truly the only one that has ever really wanted to be here. You have no clue about what you are writing about.

No one will likely ever know if he shopped himself or not, and that includes you. To call someone stupid for thinking Sean might have is a jerk move, and then your reasoning was even worse.

You think it would make no sense? In reading your posts, one might think he's a god to you. So if he's all that, why do you think he couldn't do better? Obviously he wanted to stay here, regardless of whether or not he explored other options, he ultimately decided to stay. But if he had wanted to go, why couldn't he get more? There are some hungry organizations out there, and if they think as highly of him as you do, then why wouldn't they do whatever they could to reel him in, if he wanted out?

Chip freaking Kelly had more power than Sean. He just doesn't know how to handle grown men. Why couldn't Sean get more power?

It's all a moot point now, because he stayed. But don't take that to mean he's married to us. You don't know what goes into his decision making more than anyone else, so please spare the insinuation that you do.

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