Complete made up fabrication of the truth. McCarthy has done nothing but under achieve with Dallas and Payton is overachieving in Denver. They’re nothing close to each other in success right now. McCarthy has also been fired from two head coaching jobs. Payton none. You guys make up the most random stuff.

Actually, like normal in this thread. You’re wrong. Their numbers are almost a deadlock. I’ve posted it twice. You just refuse to acknowledge it bc the truth doesn’t meet your agenda.

Saying people make stuff up when they literally posted the stone cold factual numbers is next level agenda pumping

Sean has been a HC for 17 years, Mike for 18 years

Sean is 170-105 as a HC, Mike is 174-112

Sean is 9-9 in the playoffs, Mike is 11-11

Sean has been to the NFC Championship 3 times, Mike 4 times

Sean is 1-0 in the SB, Mike is 1-0 in the SB

Sean has had a top 10 scoring offense 12 times, Mike has 11 times

Sean has had a top 10 scoring D 5 times, Mike has 6 times

He literally is Sean Payton 2.0 or Sean is Mike McCarthy 2.0

Nine out of ten anti-McCarthy arguments could be used to justify not hiring Payton if he were available.

 

[Rexman100]

Oh I get it. You want this team to be the Tampa Bay Buccaneers. Barely scrape by, win 9 or 10 games and get bounced in the first round every season. How fun.

Here’s what’s sure about MM:

Green Bay got better after he left.
He fired young OC who had the number 1 offense in the league. He has no coaching tree whatsoever. He makes terrible clock decisions at the end of games.

No super bowls after MM, I’m not sure what you’re saying. And they just got smoked by Philly in ROUND 1.

That’s what’s so funny, you’re 100000% correct. Like I just hope our next coach turns out to be a great fit.

But the arguments against McCarthy are so funny, like next level entertainment. A lot of them not because they’re actually “ha ha” funny, but more like “WTH ” funny.

 

[Saint Spud]

Players rarely say something terrible about a couch in public. The Cowgirls were headed for a reset regardless.

I’ve definitely never heard a player insult a couch in public.

Maybe an ottoman. Or a love seat.

But never a couch.

What has MM done in 15 years since that Peak Aaron Rogers Super Bowl run in. 2010??

I don’t want Sean Payton either, unless you’re talking about getting a Time Machine an hiring 2006 young budding offensive mind Payton.

You must want Loomis fired

Can we make that happen? Lol

The same thing was said about Andy Reid before he had a resurgence in KC. He left PHI with a .583 winning percentage, plenty of playoff failures, and his last two seasons there finished 8-8 and then 4-12 before he got run out of town.

The Saints are at a crossroads as a franchise right now. The Payton era raised the bar for the franchise and the fanbase, and changed the perception of the club within the league after being loveable losers for nearly 40 years. As a small-market team, now a handful of years removed from being an annual contender and sought-after FA destination, we are teetering on the brink of heading back down the path to mediocrity or worse. When we hired Sean Payton, we had nothing to lose, and no leverage to attract a proven coach. I would say that we have a lot to lose right now, and far more leverage than we had coming out of the Katrina season. Taking a chance on a young, unproven offensive coach may be an exciting proposition that gives us CSP vibes, but the reality is that those hires flame out far more often than they succeed.

The Saints could do a LOT worse than a proven NFL head coach with a .608 winning percentage, TWELVE playoff appearances with two different franchises, and a Superbowl win. You can point to his playoff failures and question his ceiling, but getting to his floor would be a much-needed boost for the Saints at this point in time, and might just cement the franchise as a winning organization that contends for championships.

Sign me up.

Well stated! I agree. He can lay the foundation and instill a winning culture.

 

[St. Widge]

I think you have a reading comprehension issue. I said he did nothing in the postseason with extremely talented Dallas cowboys rosters, much better than what we currently have with the Saints. We need a young coach with a vision for how to build a roster, not a veteran coach who will need to continue going further into the salary cap hole to try to compete and fail.

Maybe you have trouble writing things that are comprehensible?

And why would an older coach need to go further in a salary cap hole than a young one? That's just nonsense you made up.

 

[Saint Greg]

Well stated! I agree. He can lay the foundation and instill a winning culture.

That’s kind of what I’m thinking with him. Maybe he can just get us back on track. Say to where the Bucs are now…we’d be a lot more attractive to our next coach. He’s in his 60’s so I don’t think he’d be looking to coach here for much more than 1 contract.

 

[St. Widge]

Maybe but he didn't have to publicly support McCarthy when he still works for the guy that let him go.

More than Payton has without Drew.
