Get Payton as our HC

Sign Tom Brady to a 1 year deal

Proceed to dominate the league and win a championship 

Who says no?

This guy does.

I do too.

Frankly, probably an awful lot of other people do as well.

A Huddle without 1of10 AND Linville???

Lol, I'm flattered you'd even notice. I'm not around that much compared to a lot of the mainstays on this board. I tend to come and go with the demands of life and the fortunes of the team. It helps a lot that my job's busy season coincides with the nfl's offseason, but if your interest in something is completely destroyed, it's funny how you can always find something else to fill that time in your life.

Incidently, if nothing can destroy your interest in something, I think there's a term for that:

addiction

 

 

Now if you'll excuse me, this black tar heroin isn't gonna shoot itself.

I'm sure the fanbases of the teams that hired Jon Gruden, Bill Parcells, Jimmy Johnson and various other Super Bowl winning coaches thought the same thing.

Likewise, the Broncos and Browns fans probably thought their quest for a franchise quarterback was over after the massive trades and deals given for and to Russell Wilson and Deshaun Watson.

There's always some unicorn, generally a head coach or quarterback, that fans latch on to thinking "if we just get this guy who was good somewhere else, we're guaranteed to be winners".

And they're pretty much always wrong.

We already pushed almost all our chips to the table to land Watson last off season. I think that shows which direction Teppers compass is pointing. Personally I don’t give a poo. I just want to win football games. 

I want to win too, but not at all costs. To me winning has to be done within a context you can at least live with. The Watson thing was not great at all, and likely if he had come here, I'd have found something else to do with my sundays. I don't expect everyone to be a choir boy, hell I'm still a huge Steve Smith fan and the dude clearly has his failings, but there is a point beyond which I cannot lend my support or look the other way, and hiring a guy who paid his players to hurt other players goes beyond that point.

I'm not judging anybody else for thinking differently, you just wanna win football games, I get that. This is just how I personally feel about it, and since this is a discussion board for Panthers related matters, I chose to state that pretty clearly.

As always ymmv.

[MVPccaffrey]

unless he's bringing prime Brees with him then who cares, and no thanks at the price of the 9th pick

[Anybodyhome]

As much as I no longer care about the Panthers, a Sean Payton hire would bring me back to this specific forum on a daily basis just to trash the organization.

There must be at least a dozen or so retread, old school head coaches out there job hunting right now. Lovie Smith anyone? Fug, if you're gonna talk about Payton, why not go ask Bill Cowher while you're at it.

[jb2288]

He just said on Colin’s show a mid to late first round pick 

[Iron Saint]

#9 is the starting point to get that paw in the door, boys and girls.

I hope this is just to drive up the price for whoever ends up with him.

Hell yeah! Show me the picks!

Payton would make Corral look like a young Drew Brees.

Realistically have a better chance of making Corral look like Garrett Grayson or Ian Book but fork over the goods and we can see. LOL.

Yeah, sorry. I don't support football teams in any way shape or form that hire head coaches who previously ran bounty programs where they paid their players to hurt other teams players. Maybe you can look yourself in the mirror and be okay with that, but I can't.

[Sean Payton's Vicodin]

The man himself outright said on Cowherds show that Loomis is looking for a 'mid to late 1st round pick'

Smells like the Chargers or Broncos (who have the Dolphins pick) imo

Saints have placed the baseline as a first plus additional picks, that's been known. 

I just saw where Payton says the compensation  is a mid to Late 1st round pick. 

[ladypanther]

Payton seemed to speak favorably of Houston, mentioning that the have quite a few draft picks.  They have 11 in 2023, including 2 1st rounders.  Could take care of the Saints compensation and still leave him with the ability to draft his QB.

 

ROUND

1ST (CLEVELAND)
2ND

Nah, they asking for a late first. 2 2023 2nd round picks.  That's equivalent of a late first.
