Is Sean Paytons Job safe if we miss the playoffs?

blackangold · 09-02-2016, 04:14 PM

The 2013 team wasn't good?

I will say the offense is becoming more concerning over time, I attribute most of this due to the lack of off-season focus on the O-line. In the years that our offense was considered unmatched we had a offensive line that was pro-bowl worthy. We have not built/had a good o-line since 2013. People have aged and we have failed to address it with any new additions through the draft or free agency. Ireland is the best thing to happen to this team in years, I think the last few drafts have yielded favorable results for the defense. The attention needs to be turned to the O-line now, I believe Payton knows they made a mistake waiting to address it.

Long story short, Payton's season, this team's season, will depend on the offensive line and it's ability to keep Brees out of danger. For once the defense might be respectable.

I think alot of cracks were papered ober in 13. A fair few wins were very slim and some of the defeats bad,with some really bad playcalling late (pats) got rin over by the Jets and Rams. Obviosly 11-5 is good but i think the team was already on a diwnward spiral

Do what you always done. Get what you always got. I love Sean and hope he stays. It's a cultural change that's needed We need a spark plug / fire cracker type personality of influence. Whether it be a player or a coach.

Season's over. I was surprised too but I read it here a few times so it must be true.

You aren't paying attention. Despite all the upgrades we made at nearly every position, and finishing 7-9 last year, we're obviously gonna finish with less than 5 wins. /sarcasm

We have way too many fan-pussies on this site.

We might be 12-4 and we might by 6-10... Who knows? This isn't the first offseason that this team brought in a bunch of new players. The last time didn't work so well. You have no idea how these guys will play together until we see it in a real game. We don't have much to go on in pre-season, but the little we get to see hasn't indicated much on the positive side, other than the defense looking generally improved.

It amazes me how many people play the moral high ground card just before the season starts, and a few games into the season, if it isn't going well, THEN it's cool to say as many negative things as you feel like. Provided it aligns with your own negative feelings. If it's a different negative feeling, then the other guy is just a wuss.

very good post. absolutely true. No one knows how the season will go, no one is saying throw in the towel, and we all hope we pull it together, but from what we have seen in the preseason it look as bad as the start of the last two seasons.

If you asked me right now how I feel about this team I would say I think this may be the worst team we have fielded under SP. I Keep praying Barnes comes in and makes the oline good enough. That would fix a lot right there. So it is possible that if the oline is serviceable we could salvage a 10-6 season with playoff run , but from preseason it looks terrible, really terrible.

There is not one person on this board that should feel bad about their outlook on the team right now or expressing it, and if you don't believe me look at the bags under SP's eyes, we are not alone
