There was nothing Payton could say to fix that situation.

No one said he was going to fix the situation. But he could have at least spoke up and defended Brees knowing the person he is, knowing how much he helped people in the city and knowing where he was coming from based on Drew's statement. But no, the head coach and leader of the team stayed completely silent and let the bashing continue.

This is exactly what made me lost me as a fan. I know, I’m a nobody to the Saints so it doesn’t really matter, but seeing how the organization flatly refused to stand up for the man that has done so much for them made me angry. At least stand up for his character and integrity.

No one. Not Sean, not Loomis, not Gayle, none of them stood up for Brees in that moment. That showed their true colors. It showed me how scared everyone is of this ‘woke’ cancel culture the world is experiencing. I watched the playoff but it won’t be the same for me probably ever again. I miss it, but I don’t regret focusing on other aspects of life.

Thanks for the memories, Drew.
