((ht: schefter/ESPN.com))Well, this should be interesting. And amazingly, the news that the NFL voided suspended Saints head coach Sean Payton's contract should make the folks in New Orleans nervous.
Very nervous.
According to ESPN's Adam Schefter, the extension Payton signed over a year ago, was cancelled by the league quietly and with some questions still remaining. Perhaps the biggest being "Can they legally do it?"
Schefter says the question is more about a clause that would let Payton leave if Saints GM Mickey Loomis got suspended, fired or quit.
Interesting.
Read Schefter's always insightful column RIGHT HERE
What should concern Saints fans is the REAL possibility Payton has coached his last game in New Orleans.
Payton's family lives in the Dallas area and there is a REAL possibility the Dallas job is going to be open at the end of the season. Jason Garrett has done little to inspire the Cowboys, owner Jerry Jones or a fanbase with growing anger.
And Payton would be a perfect fit.
We'll see how this plays out, but considering Payton isn't gonna coach in 2012 and Jerry Jones has no qualms about throwing money in people's faces, we would not be surprised to see Payton on the sideline in Jerry World for the 2013 season.
