Hummm I always thought the Cowboy’s defense played betterwhen Payton was there.

Saints got nuked by the NFL.

Those "big" hits should lead to rule changes.

Before the hand up "free catch" rule on fourth down, a fast player could run past and hit the receiver from behind just as another player hit the receiver head on -- resulting in almost tearing the receiver apart.

Years ago, I saw that play happen; the fast player ran past and hit the receiver low and the other player hit the receiver high.

The ball was fumbled, the victim was carried off on a stretcher, abd the fair catch rule was soon adopted.

Yeah, and Bill Walsh’s 49-ers Super Bowel trophies will be taken back for the same reason. Just like all the baseball stats were readjusted after Barry Bond’s steroid use came to light.

lifetime ban on Williams....great news. This has no place in the NFL. Shocked at the Payton suspension for a full year. I am not a Saint’s fan, but I am a Payton and Brees fan. This is huge. The NFL is not kidding around on this issue.

According to local sports news, the Saints and Payton lied to the NFL and tried to cover it up.
That's why the heavy ax fell.
Some player suspensions next.
Injured players lawsuits coming up.
Big time mess the Saints brought on themselves.

Nuff said.
