So, really, they were more realistically a 5 or 6 win team last year. Those 8 wins were a mirage because of that fluke run of luck with turnovers.
Oh yes, we told him exactly that. Then Dom came to his rescue and chimed in with lots-of- word - nonsensical- blah blah about how teams always say stuff like that as an excuse when they lose to inferior teams.
Of course all this was in the midst of their Preseason Championship run.

The Wilson trade I can actually understand. It was a panic pivot once the Packers told them to eat shit and only the most ardent of shit poster would predict Wilson would fall off that bad.
Payton though? He's a complete fraud. Off the field he's a pill pushing thief and addict that indirectly oversaw a bounty program and quit on the Saints once his mismanagement of the teams cap became too much to overcome.
On the field his scheme is antiquated as fuck and doesn't lead to any real success unless his defense is purposefully knocking the other teams best players out of the game. He's a scummier drugged out Mike McCarthey. And they gave up a fucking first for him. LOLOLOLOLOLOL
