I feel like that's the beauty of being Super Bowl winning Head Coach Sean Payton - he hires an Ed Orgeron or some other great recruiting specialist and lets them do the work. Then he walks into the kid's living room 3 months later, drops his SB ring on the table, shoots the shite for a couple of minutes, and bam kid is signed.

He has already done most of the work by cultivating his "swaggy, ballsy coach bro" personna. I don't agree that it's relevant any longer with the Saints but reputations die slowly and he can still capitalize on it if he doesn't wait for the bitter end here.

Just for the record, I loved Sean Payton. He was the perfect coach for the Saints from 2006 - 2012 and even into 2013.

Something has changed - his cocky bro personality probably just wore a bit thin and stories get told from guys of the Fujita era to guys of the Cam Jordan era and he loses his aura of authority and respect.

I don't begrudge him a ton - I mainly am pissed about the Haslett-esque presnap penalties, disorganized team, blown timeouts and shitty clock management.

Still greatest Saints coach of all time and still a potential HOF coach if he has one more good run somewhere else. If I was the GM of another NFL franchise I'd kill to hire him after he took a year or so off. He'd be my number one prospect.

I mostly hate what he's become here is all.
