Saints expected to be very interested in former Packers/Cowboys HC Mike McCarthy [McCarthy will interview early next week]

We is him. I dont remember the general sentiment being that Payton wouldnt be successful in Denver. People were ticked he took a year off and came back. People felt like he turned his back on us, however misguided that may or may not be. But most people here believed in SP the HC regardless.

Theres STILL people doing that with DA. Youre right about that, bizarro world stuff.

I guess you missed the thread on Sean Payton "Paytonizing" in Denver, there were more than a few folks that were criticizing him.....
