Wait, I missed that part. He completely shut down coaching the Saints again?

Sure, just a little surprised to hear him completely shut the door on any possible return down the line.

said this past season wasn't exhausting, it was exciting.

Either he’s lying about that and not being burnt out or this is him setting up a move to Dallas without burning bridges in New Orleans.

I don’t think he ever said that.

No but this is definitely a permanent goodbye interview. The way he’s rambled on about people in the organisation and players he’s coached, it’s pretty clear he’s got not intention of coming back.

I'm wondering if Sean's in a place where he knows that by X's and O's, by motivation, discipline, scheme, by all objective measures, he's the best chance for the Saints but after the No-Call, having Saints Opponent being the cleanest team in the league for years in a row and finally the Dolphins game where Covid immediately ceased to exist as soon as the Saints were successfully screwed, the subjective obstacles he brings (Goodell's ongoing vendetta) outweigh the good he can do.

He didn’t explicitly say this. It’s more based on the absolute thoroughness of this goodbye and departure.

He’s alluded to “ready for the next thing” he just doesn’t know what it is yet.

So it feels like he’s just ready for something different.

 

[Madmarsha]

He's already talked to Mike Thomas. Interesting.

 

[Zztop]

haha did he just make a joke about Eli Apple?

 

[DavidM]

Talking about former players who move on: "I'm pulling for Vonn Bell and Tre...Eli a little bit"

 

[Snakehead]

Nice dig at Eli Apple.

 

[HouseCall]

He’s steadily dropping hints that he wants a tv job.

IKR?

 

[RaginSaint93]

He saw the tweets

Sean Payton is giving me another experience I'd never thought I'd have as a Saints fan. A coach going out on his own terms and I'm feeling sad about it. Every Saints coach since I've been a fan has either quit or gotten fired and I was usually glad to see him go.

I was curious if there was a celebration when Haslett was canned.
