re: Sean Payton just got ripped off on pass interference

On point. This is where we fail though as fans. We live in the moment rather than see the whole picture.

Well you brought out the BCS system when I said Saints barely won. I never said I rather be 0-2 lol. Im happy we got a tough win as well.

All im saying is its kind of premature to pile on the broncos hate when they’re only 0-2 and lost both games by a combined 3 points. To me lets give it a few losses before we start labeling seasons as potential busts.

They are in a pretty rough spot though. Just looking at their schedule i see maybe 2 or 3 winnable games for quite a while. If they dont get it together and soon this will be a complete disaster for him

I agree with you on this. Their schedule is brutal but lets see what happens. NFL is weird especially if the opposing teams have key injuries.

No, but to stage a fake retirement and say i will only play for x number of teams trying to decrease his value so he can slip into a comfy situation sucks.

What? Are you new to following the NFL? No coach is going to say “trade me wherever you want!” He was always going to choose his one singular preferred destination then it would be up to that team and the Saints to agree on compensation.

Honestly you can spin it anyway you want. The fact is they didn’t tie the game based off a noncall PI. I’m not feeling sorry for them on the noncall but again spin it whatever way, thats what happened. On the hail mary the commanders were morons too in the way it was defended.

I still say it wasn't fake. After his contacting Miami the FO had no choice but to dump him. How it was going to be done was what we saw. They gave him a chance to leave without his arse on fire or in a crab trap.

The trade is looking really really good right now and denver losing more and more only helps us. So bring on the loses

We barely beat the titans because we barely did. Just like broncos barely lost their two games. No BCS system just facts. If you want to act like we dominated the titans and broncos got humiliated with huge losses, you can but that’s not the truth.

We were always in a close game. The Broncos blew what looked to be a runaway game for them. Pathetic to lose the way they did.

Other than the fact that every Denver loss helps the Saints 2nd round pick, I don't get the scorned ex infatuation this board has with Payton (or every other player that leaves the team). Sure, SP left under shitty circumstances, but would you rather have someone that doesn't want to be here, or is checked out, making the decisions?

And, by shitty circumstances I am referring to the continuing to mortgage the future to chase 1 more ring, then when the future arrives decide you need a year off and then demand a trade.

You do realize the whole mortgaging future thing to chase a ring, we’re still doing that without sean payton. That means that whole concept wasn’t just Paytons idea. By the way the future isn’t here, we signed a vet qb to a big deal and are the second oldest team in the league. Which im fine with because we’re competitive but there is no future/rebuilding stage he walked away from.

You’re right theres positioning in the second round pick at stake but 2 games into a 17 game season seems kind of silly to have a rooting interest at this point. Who said he didn’t want to be here or is checked out? Thats all made up BS from fans who are pissed that he retired and then went back into coaching with another team. Just because I changed my job doesn’t automatically mean I was checked out previously.
