Keep doing what you're doing

The saints have to remain in conversation for Paytons next pay check. If he says, “Look, I am done with New Orleans. I will not return. No chance.” He loses the leverage. There will always be the team he wants to go to and a team that does not stand a chance.

Who Shawn Peyton?

Shawn Peyton was never coming back. As a matter of fact, Shawn Peyton was never here to begin with! Lol

Who Shawn Peyton?

For my money, Shawn Peyton and Drew Bree’s were the best coach/QB combo in league history .

I thought Shawn Peyton was here in '12, but maybe I'm mistaken.

There is no leverage here - aside from the fact that zero people outside of this fanbase thinks he would come back to a team worse off than when he left it, any other gm/owner knows there isn’t a bidding war against a side that won’t give up assets to retain SP

But more importantly we should be embracing SP going somewhere else so we can load up as much draft capital as we can squeeze

But he told me he was just going to get milk from the grocery store!

 

[strandedsaint]

He's coming! bet your wife and kids..................................Oh and Mike Thomas is done here book it!

The assertion that "HE'S" not coming back while also asserting that "HE'S" getting traded for draft capital is, well, something. Really somethin else.

While I agree with you on this there is one thing that is very curious. I’ve seen the reports that Sean has reached out to Vic Fangio to be his defensive coordinator in his next job. If DA gets canned then Sean has his guy to slide in and replace DA. There hasn’t been any other coaches brought up attached to CSP.

I know most of us would be happy for Sean to come back but I think it’s just a pipe dream at this point. Hey some dreams do come true and in this case I wish it would.

Amen to that!

I believe that any rumblings from people in Payton’s circle implying that he’s eyeing a possible return to N.O. - are doing so in an effort to possibly generate a buzz for his return to coaching and thus also generate a potential bidding war for his services.

Payton is a calculating person who always seems to be moving and planning behind the scenes. This is the same guy who was allegedly planning a departure to the Cowboys after the 2018 season, just weeks after the franchise experienced the most crushing defeat in its history.

He’s the guy who basically had Brady in the wings after our all-time franchise QB had decided to call it a career in 2019.

He’s the guy who allegedly had a handshake deal to coach the Dolphins in 2022 and bring Brady along for the ride.

When you hear anything out of Payton or his camp, you can assume it’s an angle in an effort to gain either more leverage, money or control in his next gig.

Loomis needs to stand firm and get every single pick we can squeeze out of a suitor. But we need more than one suitor at the table to get max value.
