Percocet P just doesn't learn does he?

Percocet P brought us what will very likely be the only Super Bowl championship we ever see.

Yep and would be his only SB if he doesn't learn to play nice in the sandbox

I think Mora is getting lost because he’s getting overshadowed by Payton and his accomplishments. Rightfully so, Payton is now the Saints standard for a coach now.
But Mora was the person that originally changed the culture of the franchise into a competitive one.

Oh, I agree, he deserves credit for bringing us winning seasons and at that point in Saints history he was admired for doing so, but he was never going to take us further.....

Total BS, CSP is who he is, he says inappropriate or controversial stuff sometimes and he isn't scared of apologizing or admitting he was wrong to do so at times....I like that about him....

Payton has created a nice little distraction for he and his new team/franchise to have to deal with now.

I'm sure he had a purpose in doing it but I doubt he intended this.

You may be right, I doubt he will ever play nice lol.

When Payton was here, we all knew that he was good for a few arrogant and cocky soundbytes, esp. after bountygate.

But part of me thinks even for SP, these comments were a bridge too far. Yes, SP is calculating, but I doubt all this attention (mostly negative) wasn't what he was shooting for. Coaching is a pretty tight NFL fraternity, despite the stiff competition for acquiring both HC positions and a spot on a staff. Openly burying one of your own after taking a job after a franchise cleaned house is dirty pool, imo. Yes, what he said was probably true, but what good does airing all that dirty laundry do?

I don't remember at all in recent history a HC go on and on about how crappy a job the previous regime did. Further, Hackett was a first year HC who flopped in his first year. He may or may not get another opportunity to coach again, but there have been more than one HCs who start slow and grow into the job and have a lot of success. And he's got a pretty decent resume; it wasn't similar to the Colts hiring Jeff Saturday out of the booth with very little or no experience. The rant just seemed, well unnecessary.

The point is there's a fine line between confidence and cockiness and hubris bordering on obnoxious when it comes to what HC says, and lately it's been the latter more than the former with SP.

But he did apologize…..

It's so fitting that Aaron Rodgers, one of the biggest douches in sports, used the old "keep *whoever/whatever* out of your mouth", which is one of the douchiest sayings anyone can use.

Coaching is like a brotherhood. Throwing one of yours under the bus is well, in the words of hook, “poor form Jack”

There’s other ways to breathe life into Wilson

I’m glad we are not connected to this juvenile garbage anymore. CSP is a mixed bag. With the creativity and genius you get this constant melodrama.

I would like to point out the irony of a NY team (where it’s always preach toughness) crying about a comment.

Payton went much too far. The comments about Hackett were uncalled for. Payton's mouth and Bountygate will cost him votes in the Hall of Fame balloting.

Too bad the week five game between Denver and the Jets won't be on Sunday night.
