One of my criticisms of Sean Payton was that he refused to use Pierre Thomas when Duece went down despite evidence Thomas is substantially better running back than either Reggie Bust or Aaron Stecker. Well, Payton finally HAD to use him and look what happens -- Pierre goes off for over 200...

Jim Mora's playoff record was 0-4.In case you're not familiar with the facts.

A major problem the organization has had over the years is sticking with losing coaches longer than they should. Jim Hasslet and Jim Mora are probably the most well known examples.

Yes, but why take a wide receiver at all in that position when you already have fairly solid players at that position and desperately and obviously need help on defense?It was an idiotic move, and Sean Payton is the head coach.If Meachem came in and made a huge impact right away like Colston...

Great point. That's why the "look at what Payton did last season" argument does not hold water. And, judging from Payton's performance THIS year, it's looking more and more like the Saints should to look elsewhere for a quality coach. A good start would be one who won't call a double-reverse...

That explains why he was not used yesterday. It does not explain why he was not used after Duece went down through week 11.

As long as Henderson, Moore, Patten and Copper are on the team, he won't see the field. You have to go as far back as Russell Erxleben to find a worse first round draft choice .

It's getting hard to keep track of Payton's moronic decisions. I would love to hear his reasoning for not giving Pierre Thomas the ball more often.

guderian, sidewinder and other Sean Payton apologists: I'm curious what you have to say about Payto's coaching skills now? Who calls a double-reverse in that situation? Although he did look promising last year, it should be clear now to EVERYBODY that Sean Payton needs to go.

<<<He sent Pittman packing and with Deuce gone I would like to see Thomas get a lot more carries. Stecker is not going to re-create himself and be a real force in our backfield. Now is the time to see if Thomas can be our "Vikings AP"<<< The fact that Payton obstinately...

The Saints performance this year suggests to me that serious long term failure under Sean Peyton is a strong possibility. Yes, I realize it's only his second year and that there are still five game remaining on this year's schedule, but as a Saints fan, I would much rather see the team cut bait...
