As long as they have DB9, I find that very hard to believe.

He's technically a free agent.

Don't expect him to leave, but they still have to work out a contract.

Brees has put up great stats every seasons he's been there, but the Saints have only made the playoffs in half the seasons he's been there, so, Brees's performance doesn't matter that much.

Can’t imagine the NFL is happy about this ..would love to see some sort of discipline...just to let him know it’s not ok

Don't worry about the nfl.  He was spending time taunting fans than calling correct defenses for the final 35 seconds and it cost him the game. His owner may have some opinions about that.

This guys a grade a douchebag. That’s why his players act like the way they do. 

Exactly. Starts with him. He’s trash and it’s absurd the media loves this team but hates ours.

The amount of times Payton is called a douchebag on a site where fans defend the biggest douchebag of a QB in the NFL is painfully ironic. Lol. 

Oh no. Payton was being flamboyant and cocky. "Coaches aren't supposed to act like that!" Sounds familiar.

Just like your DBs tackling you have no idea what a douchebag is. Show me one time where Cam mocks a team or there fans. Or were a Panther head hunts your QB.

HahaahahaahhaHah. There's not enough vicodin on earth to wash the douche out of Sean Payton. Didn't realise swamp rats were salt water creatures.

Manziel doesn’t play in the NFL anymore and we never defended him so idk what you’re talking about.

Correct.

Payton may be an a--hole, and I think a coach taunting fans or opposing players is stupid, but nothing he's done would be severe enough to constitute a violation of the NFL's Personal Conduct Policy.

Since they don't currently have an Anti-Douchebag provision on the books, judge rules "no violation".

 

Interesting thing though is that a liberal interpretation of the rules could have gotten him a taunting penalty.  The taunting rule says no acts allowed that would be contrary to the generally understood rules of sportsmanship.  Then it says such as but not limited to several things included the use of taunting tactics that might engender ill will between the teams.  I could see a mocking chant causing some ill will among the teams.  

Would have loved to have seen him get called for it, and the penalty moved the Vikes into fg position, but the way it worked out was ok to.

Dude dances around the end zone staring at opposing crowds every time he scores. Give me a break.

That's my QB.  Don't like it don't let him score.

Well I will give SP credit for at least being man enough to be honest.  It is hilarious though because he was obviously counting his chickens before they hatched.
