I'll always think fondly of him, as I don't think Saints have a title without him, but even I find it fun to root against him now (despite always having a soft spot for the Broncos). He's just stubborn, temperamental and arrogant. And thinks he's the smartest guy in the room, with his litany of infuriating, off-the-board 1st round whiffs. Plus he'll be forever tied to Bountygate, which doesn't help his rep.
It's to the point where that legacy actually keeps him underrated as a coach; he's still a good play caller, and good at building a strong locker room culture. He's still one of the better coaches in this league.
