On Tuesday, Saints head coach Sean Payton talked to the media via conference call. Most of the attention from the media focused on comments he made about gun violence following the recent tragedy in Las Vegas.
But he also talked about football. Specifically what the Saints would do with the downtime they have during their bye week and how the team is looking through four games.
He was asked if they bye week gave him time to assess where the team was. Here’s his response:
Yeah absolutely, I think if your bye comes relatively early you have a chance to look at those four games separately and also collectively and see what you’re doing well and what you’re not doing well.
