If I was a GM looking to save my job and needed to make a splash hire to buy at least another two years I would go with Payton too.  Closest you can get to a can't miss.

Bro, fitt don't have anything to do with who we hire.  Tepper is a dummy

I need the nitty gritty on this one, theres no way he stayed because they are "building something special". He was lining up interviews this past week.

Me thinks he wanted come here but he figured out that once New Orleans accepted our offer to allow an interview Payton to Carolina was a sure thing

That’s always been the problem with the Panthers. Conflicts of interest of what the team needs vs what makes the current GM comfortable. #fireFitts

It might be, but as an adult you still have to make what you feel is the best decision.

Word is he thinks they're building "something special" up there with Campbell and crew.

I was about to type the same thing until I saw your post. Honestly, I think they may well be on the way to building something special in Detroit. That franchise has been mediocre for so long that I'd like to see them succeed. With Rodgers aging, the Vikings continously falling short when it matters most, and the Bears being the Bears, the Lions could rule that division for the next several years.

As someone who has lived in Michigan my entire life outside of being in Arizona for college, I can say with 100% confidence that this post was made by someone who has zero clue about Detroit and the surrounding areas.

First of all, Downtown Detroit has actually gotten really nice in the last 10 years, to where there are very expensive and nice places to live in downtown proper, it's once you go outside of that area to where it gets sketchy.

But beyond that, the suburbs are only a 20ish minute drive away for a nice comfortable living, and if you go a further 10-20 minutes further north than that, you get into multi million dollar homes on sprawling pieces of land.

Just saying

From someone who grew up at, and lives at the beach in NC....I couldn't imagine ever living in that part of the country...no matter how expensive the homes are.

That said....I'd say the same thing about most any "mega city" throughout the nation.

The one thing people aren't accounting for with the Saints is that they may be flat out unwilling to trade Sean Payton to the Panthers, so this could be particularly brutal news.

But if they allowed the Panthers to talk to him, it seems that the compensation is all that is left to discuss. Maybe the Panthers get the "NFC South" rate.

      Pass Rush

      By SmokinwithWilly · Posted

      The year he had another edge rusher opposite him in Reddick, Reddick ended up having more sacks. Burns was good at rushing the passer here but he was taken out of plays far too often by a single TE or you'd never even known he was in the game at all.  The Rams offer was equivalent to prime Khalil Mack or a TJ Watt. Those guys single handedly took over games and stopped drives. I can't remember a game Burns ever did that. Do we wish we had the level of production hes giving right now? Of course. Do I think we'd have it here. No.  At the time, his production was on par with Reddick, not Parsons. Pay production and incentivise potential.

      Technically our guys are in the top 6 in sacks for rookies and Scourton is tied for the lead.

      That's why so many said he wasn't worth it here, there was only DB and it wasn't enough. If Burns is feasting then the other guys in NY are doing enough already, Burns is just collecting the stats. It's what he eas built for and is finally in his perfect space to succeed. Im not as in on the new guys yet. More is an understatement but the good news is that they are rookies.
