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. 

 

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.

      Official Carolina Huddle Super Bowl LX Thread

      Just another 1st round QB that never paid off for the team that drafted them or traded for them. It's been like this since the SB began. 36 QBs have now won the SB & only 13 of them have been 1st rounders winning with their original team. Namath 1968, Griese 1972, Bradshaw 1974, McMahon 1985, Simms 1986, Aikman 1992, Elway 1997, Roethlisberger 2005, P.Manning 2006, E.Manning 2007, Rodgers 2010, Flacco 2012, & Mahomes 2019. Only 3 have taken longer than 5 seasons as the starter to win a SB.  4  6  5  4  6  4  15  2  9  4  3  5  2 [the years it takes for these 1st round QBs] 5  1  4  1  3  1  1  2  3  4  [10 of the 36 have won a chip with their 1st team that haven't been drafted in the 1st round. These are the years it took them as a starter] What stands out? Only 2 of these QBs have lost their first championship appearance. Elway took 4 years as a 1st rounder & Hurts took 2 years as a 2nd rounder. Of the 10 non-1st round QBs, 2 are 2nd rounders, 3 are 3rd rounders, 5 are 6th rounders or later. Please stop wasting time on drafting 1st round QBs with such a high failure rate. The remaining 13 QBs are traded or free agent signings. Stafford, Favre, Young, Williams and Dawson are the 5 trades. Peyton Manning & Tom Brady also won for teams as free agents on a short stay as well as being drafted. The lesson here is don't waste your franchise on farming up 1st rounders for the league, and steer clear of trading for a franchise QB. Stick to finding that championship QB by drafting them outside of the 1st round or through free agency.

      I wake up this morning full of rage towards Ronald McDonald Rivera / Gettleman / Hurney

      I lost most of the respect I had for Fox in 2010. He should have resigned if he hated the job that much. Instead he stuck for his paycheck and let stuff go to hell.    I burned out on Ron too but my deal breaker issue with him was away from football and after he was gone from the Panthers. He may have been out of his depth but never quit on us.

      From where they were one year ago to now, pretty incredible. I mean, say what you want about Vrabel he is no Jerrod Mayo.
