Oh fun KC getting a new WR it must be Tuesday
I feel your pain Cade trading away a top 10 pick has to burn I remember when KC traded away picks for Mahomes I was afraid he was a bust
The Saints could've had Mahomes and wanted him. They also could've had Lamar Jackson the next year.
Since I am a Louisiana born Saints fan, I have every right to say that if you're a fan of a team and want Sean Payton as your coach, you should lower your expectations. You'll make the playoffs, but you won't win a SB. Our lone SB win with a HOF QB don't happen at all without Bountygate and trying to injure Favre in the NFCCG.
Mike McCarthy gets a lot of criticism for wasting Aaron Rodgers prime, but Sean Payton did the same thing, and even worse. At least the Packers were making the playoffs in those years. The Saints went 7-9 in most of Brees' best seasons. Look up the 2014, 2015 and 2016 seasons. One of those years I remember Carolina winning the division at 7-8-1 and the Saints couldn't even take advantage of a lousy division.
The way I see it, Payton and McCarthy are about the same coach, though I'd say McCarthy might actually be better. He has more road wins in the playoffs. Payton's only road playoff win came against a Chip Kelly coached Eagles team.
With all that said; I think Payton is sitting out a coaching job this summer and goes back to Fox. I think he wanted the Chargers or Cowboys job, and he isn't getting either of them now. After this season, he can go where ever without the Saints needing to trade his rights.
