The question is - should they get a pass?

Get a pass for what? I don't get where you are coming from on this. Do they (Payton/Loomis) need a pass for being in arguably the best division in the NFC for most of their tenure? They are getting no pass nor do they deserve any pass. The condemnation apparently exists mostly in your point of view.

The Payton/Loomis era is far and away the most successful in franchise history.

You're evading the simple question - should Payton Loomis get a pass from any, all criticism because they won won Superbowl?

Of course not, if the criticism was warranted. I see very little area for criticism. Far, far less than most in their positions. They have done their best to put the Saints in the position to win it all more times than not over the past two decades. Unfortunately other factors come into play that can affect that ultimate success.

Still evading the question - Are Payton and Loomis beyond reproach, above any criticism because they won one Superbowl?

And I'll repeat, of course not. If criticism is warranted then sure. But to blame them for ONLY winning a single Super Bowl is foolish. They receive plenty of warranted criticism as has been pointed out, as does every single GM and head coach in the NFL. You, however, seem to want to blame anything and everything on the two of them. Everyone is flawed. No one is perfect. But reading your constant berating of them leads one to believe they are the worse GM/coach pairing to have ever walked the earth.

No, they shouldn’t. Critical analysis, unbiased and unemotional =/= toxicity.

Therein lies the issue.

Not so. I am realistic. I recognize the FACT that we have enjoyed the greatest era of Saints football because of what Payton and Loomis have accomplished. Your clear distaste for them both seems almost personal in nature (ie. emotional).

You have a distaste for any criticism of Payton, Loomis; you spin it personal as it's only personal for you...
