It was a weird season. I hadn't heard the dysfunction and rumors flying as much since Haslett was impregnating cheerleaders and Joe Johnson was boning Roaf's stripper wife.

It's crazy how the locker room fell apart right before our eyes. Payton/Loomis lost their way. They overlooked character and paid talent and it bit them in the arse.

No denying Graham and Jr. can play. But with big money and no leaders like Harper/Jenkins/Smith/Vilma to law down the lay, the team went to shite.

Stills must have been part of the idiot crew. I'm thinking Vaccaro is too. He's on notice.

So is Cam Jordan, but I'm not sure exactly what his situation is. Just rumors.

Very strange season and Payton is getting things in order.

Really shouldn't be that surprising considering the leaders we've lost. I think Lofton tried but just didn't have the respect of the team.

Interesting comments about Browner being an "enforcer." Too many clues out there. Lewis is obviously a great player but way too emotional and not level-headed enough to be a great leader.

We need a steadying presence to teach Jordan/Vaccaro/Hicks/Jenkins how to be pros.

That's exactly why I think Watson stays this year despite not being terribly productive.

There were interesting comments coming from Brees and Streif all season but people didn't pay attention because they were so focused on the disappointment on the field.

I was never a huge Will Smith fan. I thought he was fat and overpaid. However, I heard a story about him knocking Victor Riley straight the frick out after Riley started riding his arse and bullying people. I'll always respect Smith for that. Riley was a piece of shite.

I said this about halfway thru last season. We obviously wouldn't miss those 4 production (of lack of it) on the field b/c Vilma and Smith were never playing again and Jenkins are Harper had been mediocre. But it was painfully clear their leadership missing killed the defense, especially

I don't think it's crazy at all. When your HC and key assistants are gone for months up to a year, all kind of things can develop and quietly fester. I'm purely speculating, but I think it took SP into the season last year before he could see what had developed in his absence, but then it was too late and he had to ride out the season best he could. Now that he fully understands, he's hit the reset button.

So if you're looking to place some blame, look no further
