Jeff Duncan on Sean Payton 2023 (3 Viewers)

That has not been determined. Most think if he were to try and do that it would end up in court.
Yep. Some have said his rights go into perpetuity. As he didn’t fulfill the contract.

I know it’s a pipe dream but it’s given me hope. I’ve lost pretty much all feeling about the game, if Sean comes back it will reinvigorate me.

My son asked me if I thought it would really happen, sadly had to tell him no. He’s not a Saints fan but he is hoping Sean comes back because he’s not used to seeing his father apathetic about football. Lol
 
I'd love to see something conclusive on this. It would make sense that he signed a 5 year contract and that those years have to be fulfilled no matter what "years" they fall under. I sure hope that's the case.
No expert but I truly believe that’s the case. Hopefully doesn’t come to that as I’d love to have him back, or if not, have some good picks for him this next season.
 
Sadly it’s hard to know sometimes who really buys into all that conspiracy stuff. Yes, there is plenty of reason for frustration this year. I’m right there with you.

You are a favorite poster of mine. I’m glad you really understand. :9:
Guess Cam buys into it too. Lol


I’m not butthurt at all about it, but stats have shown for years that the Saints get treated like crap…officiating wise. Literally stats to back it up. Over and over. That’s not a conspiracy theory to me but to each their own.
 
Jeff Duncan will be on Eric Asher show today on 106.1 nash which starts at 4pm cst. I assume its gonna be about his article.

I just listened to the segment. Apparently, It's an option that's on the table. Still a long shot, though.

Yeah, the vibe I get is that he wants to coach, and he will evaluate all openings (and has already been evaluating options).

He’ll make a decision based on what’s available. He will absolutely consider the Saints IF there’s an opening. But there are no guarantees.

It stinks because I have very little faith in Loomis moving on from Allen after one year, because I think we would instantly be his top choice, regardless of how people perceive the roster.

I don't know, as close as Payton and Loomis are, if there was an opportunity to bring Payton back, I don't think Loomis would hesitate to part ways with Allen. Even setting aside the relationships, it would be too obvious of an upgrade to pass on.

But, I'm really skeptical that there is anything to the possibility that Payton would return to New Orleans.

I'm skeptical Allen getting dumped after one season happens, but if it did, it wouldn't be that shocking. They did it to SVG after 1 season with the Pels, so who knows?

I'm skeptical too, but I was skeptical, to the point of openly mocking the idea, when the noise started about him leaving happened and we all know what a kick in the genitalia that turned out to be. As far as Loomis goes I don't think he can afford to not bring Payton back if he wants back in to be honest. I think Gayle outright said when Sean first broke the news her response was to take a long vacation and think about it after, if that isn't confirmed it was certainly rumored. Loomis also isn't an idiot and knows fan expectations with Allen will be in the gutter, one guy even went so far as to tell him that at a public appearance. Unless he thinks he has a better option than Payton that isn't Dennis Allen he'd be in for loads of criticism by choosing not to bring him back.

I think Gayle in particular has her ear to the ground when it comes to New Orleans. Yes, she'll probably ultimately defer to Bensel and Loomis if they go to bat for Dennis Allen, but I just don't see Gayle wanting to enter next season with negative energy. So I think Allen will be gone. Whether Payton will be back, that's entirely different. Hopefully, Jeff Duncan is on to something. Not homing my breath, but crossing my fingers.
 
If Payton does for reason come back, then what was the whole point of this but losing a good DC?
