We aren't saying Payton was washed or held the team back. He was simply on his bs.
Payton on his bs... Going against what wins you championship. Multiple High-end WRs. It burned him in the NFC championship throwing passes to TLL and Dan Arnold. We still didn't fix WR. We got by all 2019 on some bullshyt WRs with Michael Thomas having a record breaking season.
Emmanuel Sanders was just one year in 2020.
The damage was already done.
Four "Random #" UDFAs fukked them over in that game.
Arnold: dropping that Touchdown pass, which caused them to have to settle for a Field Goal
That "Random #" "Special" Teamer: poor awareness on that Fake Punt from the Lambs, which could have been prevented and given the Saints momentum
TommyLee: Although not fully his fault (Vinovich and that
officiating crew
), displayed poor situational awareness on the "No-Call" by not selling a head-shot injury to get the flag
CENSORED: 1 rec./5 yrds./TDs, just a waste of an active gameday roster spot
