METAIRIE, La. -- New Orleans Saints coach Sean Payton finally, reluctantly, met with the media Wednesday for his mandatory end-of-season news conference after he spent much of last week in his "cave," as he put it.
"What is it now, a week and a half? It feels like it's been longer than that," Payton said. "I would say honestly after the game for two to three days, much like normal people, I sat and probably didn't come out of my room, ate Jeni's ice cream and watched Netflix for three straight days."
Payton said the anger probably lasted about 24 hours after the infamous no-call that knocked his team out of the NFC Championship Game.
