"Maybe if I took all that stuff down, I might be able to keep my mouth shut and not say something at media day that will haunt him all week long like I did last week."


Gregg Williams Feb 09 2010 9:15 PM from AOL Sports

"The poor waiter came over to the table at brunch and gave me two big jars of peanut butter, saltine crackers and a glass full of sand to wash it down with"


Gregg Williams Feb 09 2010 9:15 PM from AOL Sports

"A guy like Bill is someone who had his hands all over this league offensively and practice schedule-wise and installation-wise"


Sean Payton Feb 09 2010 9:15 PM from AOL Sports

"Bill was a really strong, really strong influence on Sean ... Sean would be the first to tell you, but I think Sean puts his own spin on it, if you will. Often times, his delivery is different, but there's a base philosophy there..."


Mickey Loomis Feb 09 2010 9:15 PM from AOL Sports

"It became apparent to me that football was obviously very important but it was much bigger than football ... When we got into coaching or playing, we got into it for certain reasons and yet the reasons in New Orleans far exceeded..."


Sean Payton Feb 09 2010 9:15 PM from AOL Sports

"That was a huge turning point. They caught us off guard ... It was gutsy. If we would have got it, the game might have been a blowout."


Jim Caldwell Feb 09 2010 9:15 PM from AOL Sports

"They took a gamble. It paid off for them and certainly changed the momentum of the game at that point"


Jim Caldwell Feb 09 2010 9:15 PM from AOL Sports

"The game unfolded the way it did, and our defense played the way it did, because of the head coach taking a gamble with an onside kick right at the start of the second half"


Gregg Williams Feb 09 2010 9:15 PM from AOL Sports

"Gutsiest call I've ever seen"


Drew Brees Feb 09 2010 9:15 PM from AOL Sports

"Well, we were going to be aggressive"


Sean Payton Feb 09 2010 9:15 PM from AOL Sports
