I think Payton is playing us. I think he is going to be in Denver or maybe wait another year, using us for leveraging his contract. I hope Tepper will not give up a first round pick for him. 
 

After seeing the Miami coach vaping during their game that job will be open soon again I believe, if not this year next. Payton may wait on it even till next year. Remember there are several states with no state income tax, Florida, Tenn, and Nevada are among them. Not the biggest factor, but something to think about. 

Payton is coaching this year. Right now he has value. Two years removed and the Saints wouldn't get near the compensation.

I don’t want him because of Bountygate, being scum, and looking like a butthole. But, we might have to sell our souls for a winning season at this point. 

It is no coincidence he left New Orleans when his quarterback retired. He left before his contract was up. After Bountygate and his one year suspension it turned a lot of people off.

I've been in management for years now and the one constant question you get in a promotional-type of interview is "if you are considered for this position (a promotion) do you have  YOUR replacement named AND trained?"

    • If you look at almost all Daniels stats, they are as good or better than last year minus perhaps Completion Percentage. I don't think Daniels himself is having very much less individual success than the Redskins are reverting to the mean.  https://www.espn.com/nfl/story/_/id/46003861/nfl-teams-likely-decline-lose-more-games-2025-season-predictions-vikings-chiefs-commanders-lions-colts#wsh Barnwell wrote about them in the preseason as a team that had an inordinate amount of luck or success in one score games that wasn't very likely to be repeated.
    • We thinking of the same Mike White? He probably won’t even make it off the practice squad.
    • I would heavily push back on the notion of Tomlin and Cowher inheriting "collapsed teams." From 1980 to 1991(prior to Cowher and after their Super Bowl victories) the Steelers experienced just 4 sub .500 seasons. In fact the winning percentage for those years was 0.505. At most that was relatively mediocre, something fairly akin to the pre-Tepper Panthers. From Cowher through Tomlin(1992 to Present) it has been the NFL's best franchise. 22 playoff appearances, 4 Super Bowl Appearances, 2 Titles, 15 times winning the division. In fact they have only experienced 3 sub .500 records in that 34 season span.  That isn't ever a scenario where rebuilding happens. It's constant and consistent retooling so that your franchise floor is always high. It's smart business decisions, exceptional drafting and quality personnel moves that create a situation where that floor STAYS high.  It was precisely BECAUSE we opted to go through a complete teardown and "rebuild" without any of that competence being in the organization at all that led us to where we are currently. A situation that will more than likely continue for well over a decade longer.  Long term successful franchises do not "rebuild." They are in a constant state of competent flux that sustains them through some leaner periods without ripping the foundation completely out that led to that success in the first place.
