What to expect moving forward

Regarding Sean Payton feeling that he was not wanted in New Orleans, that was never my impression. I always thought that Loomis and Payton were personal friends, and that the organization did its best to convince Payton to stay after the 2021 season. And I simply find it incredible that anyone would think that Dennis Allen and Sean Payton were on the same level and might actually favor the former as the team's head coach. However, I readily concede I am just speculating and have no idea what has been taking place inside the Saints organization.

I also have no idea who might have made up a "contingent" who believed Payton received too much credit and they were responsible for a successful culture, especially if Jeff Ireland was not one of them. If true--and I have no idea--this organization is truly a dysfunctional mess.
