Hey guys,
The Saints won a Super Bowl in 2009 to close out the 1st decade of the 21st Century
and now, 5 years have passed and since then, the Saints have been in the playoffs 3 times since the new decade of the 21st Century arrived
2010-Saints clinched a Wild Card Spot at #5 and lost to a 7-9 team in a pre-Russell Wilson Seattle Seahawks
2011-Saints won their division and def. the Detroit Lions in the Wild Card Weekend, but lost in the Divisional Playoffs to the San Francisco 49ers
2012-Sean Payton suspended for 1 year during the bountygate scandal
2013-Saints clinches the Wild Card and def. the Philadelphia Eagles, but lost to the Top Seeded Seattle Seahawks
and last year, the Saints missed the playoffs, but finished 7-9 in the regular season
and now, this year, they are 1-4 and they will host the Falcons this Thursday Night, but there's word goin' around that this could be the end of a dynasty for the New Orleans Saints
Ever since winning the Super Bowl, players have been cut from the team especially when it came to salary caps?
The likes of Lance Moore, Reggie Bush, Darren Sproles, Malcolm Jenkins, Pierre Thomas, Junior Galette and recently, Jimmy Graham was treaded to the Seattle Seahawks
Is Sean Payton on his way out with the Who Dat Nation?
THAT'S THE QUESTION!
Here's the story:

The hottest trade target in the NFL after the season could be Saints coach Sean Payton
By Emmett Knowlton | Business Insider
October 12, 2015
Although we're only 5 weeks into the NFL season, multiple teams — including the Miami Dolphins and Indianapolis Colts — are reportedly interested in trading for Saints head coach Sean Payton this off-season, ESPN's Adam Schefter first reported.
Payton signed a contract extension with the Saints in 2013 that runs through 2017, at $8 million a year. Schefter reports that this won't deter the Dolphins and Colts from inquiring about trades.
Considering that the Dolphins fired Joe Philbin after their loss to the Jets in Week 4, and the Colts' current head coach, Chuck Pagano, doesn't have a contract after this season, the two teams are the heavy favorites to make a run at Payton.
Payton has coached in New Orleans for 10 years and has amassed a record of 81-51 in eight-plus years at the helm. Despite the controversy that surrounded him in 2012 as a result of Bountygate, he's still widely regarded as a strong and competent head coach.
As Pro Football Talk notes, Payton will likely only move somewhere with an established quarterback, as he and Drew Brees have thrived together in New Orleans. Both Indianapolis and Miami fit that bill.
Although Payton has so far downplayed the rumors, it's still quite possible that he will be the first big trade target of the off-season.
