Gotta wonder what happened there.

What happened is Sean Payton is beginning to look like our next coach.  We are the best job this year.  Good O-line.  We're don't have a vet qb contract weighing us down.  We have some defensive pieces.  As crazy as Tepper is it's not the Church of Latter Day Saints like the Texans organization.  

It's really the logistics which is the biggest tell.  Sean has been zooming with teams remotely.  Tepper hasn't even interviewed any of the candidates in person.  Yet here we are this week with Tepper and Payton flying out to NYC where Tepper is going to wine and dine him personally and probably slip a roofie in his drink so he can get some damning photos unless Payton takes the job.

Crazy how many are turning down HC openings. 

The herd is thinning. Seems like we’re down to Payton, Wilks or Steichen. And neither are guarantees.

Well put yourself in some of these guys shoes and look at the situation they are walking into.  I can't say as I can fault them for waiting another season to see how things shake out elsewhere.  There's more to consider than just the players they inherit.

Dan Campbell probably talks with Payton and passed the news along…

I know and I respect your football acumen.  It's not really about what you or I want.  I'm just connecting the dots.  I'm fine with Wilks, I'm fine with Payton.  I didn't think Johnson was ready.  I don't think Steichen is ready.  Payton in a known commodity and the Panthers need to win.  He appears to be the safest bet out of the field of candidates.

Last minute back out….why say yes then?!?! There’s only 32…..

I bet ownership got in BJs ear and let him know if Campbel gets fired next year he’s in as HC
