This whole thing feels dirty.

This whole thing feels dirty.

To be honest, it's like the Twilight Zone.

Well Drew can go kick rocks then. What a bunch of sellouts.

Wish Drew would come mentor our new QB (when we get him).

The Broncos are going to eventually bring Drew into their fold….fight the urge Drew! Fight it!

Having both Payton and Drew there should really help his game, even if Drew doesn't stay long.

It doesn’t matter, the verdict on here is that Payton had zero impact on Brees’ career, and that Brees would have had multiple 5k yard seasons wherever he ended up.

Wilson should be the exact same as he was last year.

Quit. No one believes that nonsense. They both made one another better. Period.

I agree with that, but others do not. After Payton left he is suddenly a bum that didn’t do anything with Brees and can’t do anything without him.

To be more constructive in this thread, I bet that Payton will do the same thing he did for Brees, start with plays where Wilson was successful and build from there:

Brees expected to be challenged by unfamiliar concepts. Instead, he watched as Payton scribbled plays Brees ran during his first five seasons with the Chargers. A confused Brees interrupted him, telling Payton he was expecting to see some West Coast offensive principles. He didn’t know they ran these kinds of plays.

“And he said, ‘Well, we don’t,’ ” Brees recalled. “ ‘But I know this is what you do and this is what you’re really good at and it’s what you’re comfortable with. So we’re building this offense around you.’ ”

It was a collaborative effort. Payton asked Carmichael, What were the concepts you guys did in San Diego that we need to have here — that he was comfortable with, that he had success with?

“So really, when this playbook got put together, it was grabbed from multiple playbooks, putting what we thought the best fit was for Sean and for Drew, really working together,” Carmichael said.

This hurts even more. It would be nice if our two most recent Saints legends were teaming up to help the Saints situation rather than the Broncos.

This whole thing with the Saints is starting to feel like there is a lot more going here than meets the eye.
