He's a smart guy (Tulane educated), home grown and has a solid track record.

Meh, those were some awful drafts under Mike Ditka and Jim Haslett; and I'm not so sure Omar hasn't benefited from the scenery more than his own making...

We do some tweaking with reducing Payton's GM authority, make Jeff Ireland the GM, hell, bring Parcells in as Team President if that's what it takes...

I guess some of you are too young to remember what its like to have a great rest-of-the-team-even-a-great kicker, but at QB, have an Aaron Brooks or a Jim Everett or a Dave Wilson or some assorted Billy Joes.

Drew Brees'es dont grow on trees, people.

Even a guy named Bobby Hebert, (who was actually one of our 2** best pre-Brees QBs*** ) agrees with me.

It would be CRAZY to unload Drew Brees.

** Somewhere, on our board, there could be some millenial kid, playing with his phone, who doesnt know the name ARCHIE. Dont laugh. 60% of America cant name 3 branches of govt.

*** Bobby was actually pretty damn good, and tough as nails. Dont be hatin, fellow old guys. You were screamin for them to put him in, when we had Dave Wilson, so put a sock in it. And we all felt like we had a chance, when Bobby was in there. Did you feel like that with Richard Todd? Yeah, ok I thought Todd would do it for us too. nevermind. But he was 10X better than Stabler- so simma down now !

Dude do not get it twisted, I know how good Drew is. He may end up leading the NFL in pass yards all time. He is going to the hall fo fame first ballot. I think what people are saying is we need to rebuild this team. We aren't winning with drew. We may never have another drew brees, but you can apparently win in the nfl without a drew brees at the helm.

For what purpose?

Brees has a no trade clause in his contract. The Saints will be the last team he will ever play for. He has stressed that on numerous occasions.

That's good, every athlete says **** like that.

Brees isn't "every athlete," in case you haven't noticed. I believe him when he says he plans to retire as a Saint. That's a big reason why he wants to continue with year to year contracts.

I believe that Payton needs to be reigned in and let Loomis be an accountant and have a real football GM.

No GM wants to feel like he has less power than a HC.

No, we need a up-and-comer, not some recycled coach who has been out of the league for some time.

Re: It's time for the Saints to move on from Sean Payton and Drew Brees

Maybe we shouldn't have kicked Rita out of the organization if she was the only one willing to challenge Payton.

No thanks. Sean Payton already has me terrified.
