I completely agree. If Sean Payton and his staff were coaching the Cowboys this year the "rebuilding" job you advocate would be called "upgrading depth".
I have to ask in general what is so great about Sean Payton? 10-6 with an offensively balanced ball club in a weak conference is not all that impressive upon further review.
Parcells did that with a less talented Dallas team some years ago, so they blasted Dallas, the Cowboys have already proven that they aren't very good, it should've been evident opening day truthfully.
Payton is the flavor of the month but I remeber Jim Fassel being the toast of New York for going 10-5-1 in 1997 and winning a weak East and Payton being a hero on that same club in 2000 when they went 12-4 and then were dominated in the Super Bowl but the very next season he fell out of favor and in two seasons after that Fassel became the Giants goat.
The NFL is capricious and I honestly do not forsee any long term success for the Saints.
Dallas is awful and the Saints are better but that doesn't mean a whole lot.
