Also from that Athletic article, growing belief in the league that Payton doesn't lead for the Broncos job. 

 

Makes me think he finally agreed to meet them for leverage purposes with Carolina to make sure he gets the 20m a year deal he wants. 

I’m sorry I’m not bright, are you saying that they are saying we are in the lead?

If that's what he wants, ain't no way Tepper ponies that up after overpaying for Rhule and how that turned out.  His pride is hurt.  Sure, Payton is about as sure of a thing as there's out there that we interviewed, but you just can't take that monetary risk again.

Either that or going back to fox. Kinda a coin flip that I'm leaning toward Carolina with Arizona being a ploy to make Carolina move to hire him. 

Just when I thought all hope was lost you bring me right back in lol.

I don't think Denver was a serious choice because of the contract Wilson had and the fact they won't make Patton give up control as gm.

It was known from the start he was wanting 20-25m a season.

Damn.  Even for me personally who really likes the idea of hiring him, kind of sours on the idea of paying that PLUS the picks we'd give up.  Damn that's steep.  But, again, I feel like it's about as sure of a thing as you can get, so I could accept it if it happened.

Coach salary doesn't matter, comes out of Tepper's pocket and it's not like it affects the salary cap. 

$20 million is high, but it's not insane compared to other top coaches. Belichick makes $20m, Carroll $15m, McVay $14m, etc.

They've never said that.

In fact, it was reported that Paton won't be included in the next round of interviews. It's set to be ownership only.

I mean, yes and no. At 20m even for 7 years, that’s a $76m bigger risk than before. Big number, but it’s about 0.69% of DTs net worth.

      I am really sorry  that  happened to you they say to never meet your sports heroes i have friends who met  mickey mantle when they were young and he was a belligerent alcoholic at the time  ut broke their hearts  I had the opportunity to meet and spend  time with Cam Newton.     He was the polar opposite of Steve Smith and his public image.   Polite.  Honest when asked question.  You could tell the things that mattered to him and the things that  didnt. The disappointments in himself and the things that hurt him  those qualities make him quite a good interviewer too  i genuinely liked him   Im sure as young, rich, sports hero, he has not been a choir boy but there is goodness in him  the time i met him i took one of my friends with me from the west coast. She said she didn't like him and wasn’t enthusiastic about meeting him.  She left loving him   No one can say anything bad about ‘her Cam’ anymore

      So, after Sunday's game does that mean we're stuck with Bryce for the foreseeable future?

      Agree about oline. They've tried their best to improve that area. But honestly, has it looked like the most expensive oline in the NFL to you? Not just with Bryce. With Dalton's one game where they almost got the old man killed.  Also YAC shouldn't always be hitting a guy in stride while he's running full speed. Pickens killed us after the catch and those weren't all hit-in-stride plays. I remember a play in Miami when a guy caught a 5 yards curl and took it like 30-40 yards to the house. We don't have that in Carolina. Horn might be the closest thing to that but he can't get significant PT for whatever reason. If Bryce keeps trusting his receivers to make plays, I think he'll become more consistent. Seemed like he only trusted TMac. And force feeding one receiver isn't sustainable. Defenses will start to blanket him and take him out of the game. And yeah, keep taking deep shots. I hate all that dink and dunk football. Hate it.

      Dan Marino sucked too I guess. Washed up Elway carried by Terrell Davis was actually better than prine Elway. Lol
