Theories: Payton wants to be the NFL version of a heel. Or, he is a douche. Or...both!

SI's take:

This took me back to my rec basketball days as a ninth grader. My team turned the ball over and the opponent’s best player led a fast break. I was with him step-for-step down the court. My trash talk was something to the affect of, ‘You know I’m going to block this, right?’ He said nothing and kept dribbling. Once inside the paint, he drew contact beautifully, fell away even more beautifully, tossed the ball off the backboard for a made layup and an and-one. I was Sean Payton.

But at least I learned my lesson then. In Week 14 against the Falcons, Payton made a choke sign to Atlanta running back Devonta Freeman during the game. Atlanta would go on to win the game after it picked off Drew Brees in the end zone, and Payton killed any hope of a last-ditch comeback when he drew an unsportsmanlike conduct penalty for marching out to the numbers to argue with officials.

While Mike Tomlin looks foolish on his own for overlooking the Jaguars in favor of the Patriots, his action pales in comparison to Payton, who actively mocked an opponent and an opponent’s fanbase just to go 0–2 against both and sit at home this weekend.

I actually like the idea of a Black Hat in the coaching ranks, someone in this otherwise-boring head coaching industry to take some verbal shots and spice up the game. Payton could very well be that guy. He’s in a fun city with a fun, young team that should have some swagger.

But his trash talk needs a lot of work. He should take this offseason to review the tape and work to be better in 2018.

Admittedly, even on tv, it was damn loud at the end there


it gets loud

I'd agree a lot of that fan staff seems silly, in general, but it's fun when you're part of it
