See the above reply. Who do you want to do better. Who else has ever even made us relevant? We are spoiled. We could be Detroit if you want? Or the Chargers?

As I said ... the grass is always greener ....

Especially the offense, they just let the opposing defense dictate the game, until late in the 4th quarter where they give us a glimmer of hope and then fall short.

And the same question to you. Who is better right now for the Saints? What do you want instead? Who would you have rather had over the past decade?
Give the answer.

Waiting. I have asked this exact question dozens of times on this forum and have never got a real answer.

No need to wait, here's my answer. Getting a different coach wouldn't help, Payton just needs to do better.

Right, it seems like he’s lost the edge. Like it worked in 09 it’ll work now

But how to do better? He's human. He has done the best job of any coach in Saints history to make us relevant. Give him credit for that. But, how much is truly on him. There are a dozen other coaches, 53 players, all those officials, and the damned shape of the ball that come into play.

What is it exactly he needs to do better? I have to give it to you, diz. You are the first one out of the many others that has even attempted to answer that question.

Much respect!

Works good enough to win more games than anyone else over the past three years. Is that losing the edge?

Agreed, my comments aren’t meant to intimate that Payton isn’t a valuable HC, or that he needs to be cut loose. it’s merely to point out our playoff record, outside of the 2009 SB year isn’t indicative of anything special. For MANY reasons.

I’m not of the mindset that “feel better cuz you could be 3-13” is a legitimate excuse for going 13-3 and losing in the wildcard round.

But..., to each their own.

Sure, while compiling a 2-3 playoff record. Which, imho, is the only record that matters.

Could that excuse be because of a bad bounce, or a bad call, or a bad play? Yup. That his fault?
