Oh, and be careful. There are some around here that think Brees sucks and should be replaced. You think they're right? |

At some point, you gotta look at coaching. |

His tape shows that he's a violent defender, can set the edge and run down the elite (see Saquan Barkley/Giants game) RB's & sack the QB. It's time to put the total package together (stay healthy), not over think and help us win games in the post season. If his work ethic & desire to be great is even close to Cam Jordan's, we are in good shape for 2020. |

You are completely correct. At some point you have to look at coaching. And when I look at coaching I see the most successful run in the 53 year history of the New Orleans Saints and we currently have arguably the best roster ever.
As the old saying goes, be careful about what you wish for ... you just might get it. Sure, place blame where ever you wish, but make sure you offset that with credit to see the bottom line. I asked JP this and haven't seen a reply ... who out there besides Belechick do you think would be giving us a better chance of winning it all that we could get to replace Payton? I can't wait to see your answer and explanation of why. |

Re: Malcolm Jenkins thinks Saints are 'closer' after Brees' comments
I agree that Payton is and has been the best man for the job but if he would have learned to stay away from the defensive side of the ball and allowed his coaches to do their thing we would have several rings.
He saw things he wanted (Seattle Defense) and pretty much told his coaches to give it to him. Weather or not we had the personnel to pull it off didn’t matter. |

It's the draft management, more FA failures than gains that have been the greatest limitation of success for this team... |

Again, no Coach has done more to limit the success of his teams on the field than with irrational personnel moves and draft reaches than Sean Payton... |

Whether you agree or not, Payton is accepted by most in the business as one of the top five head coaches in the league today. These are the names you see everywhere ... Mike Tomlin, Pittsburgh Steelers. Sean Payton, New Orleans Saints. John Harbaugh, Baltimore Ravens. Andy Reid, Kansas City Chiefs. Bill Belichick, New England Patriots. Can you guarantee the Saints would have been more successful without Payton? That's what you are implying. |
