It was easy to see that the Saints missed Sean Payton as soon as the 2012 season started. They lost four games in a row, and even after finishing the season 7-4, couldn’t recoup from their horrid start to make the playoffs. The team extended Payton on Friday and honored their suspended head coach by wearing visors in their 2012 team photo. Payton is known to rock the visor on the sidelines, and it’s clear all the New Orleans players have missed that familiar sight. Check out the Saints mimicking their head coach in the photo below.
