Looks like Quinn is the favorite for the Broncos job now. If it's to push someone it's Carolina. He's already one of the highest paid broadcasters on Fox at like 10m per for part time work basically.  

Everybody that I've seen name a favorite for the Broncos job names Payton.

I was thinking about this actually. IF the current front runners are are Steichen, Payton, and Wilks, there's nothing else we can do with them this week (except hire Wilks, but they can keep him on the backburner since it doesn't look like anyone else has interest in even bringing him in). In that case, they may decide to speak to another candidate or two just because it seems like we're in a holding pattern (especially if Steichen is the top candidate).

I wouldn't mind bringing in Raheem Morris for an interview. Prior HC experience, a defensive mind but like Evero spent a few years on the offensive side as WRs coach and pass game coordinator under Dan Quinn.

Good points. It does give me hope Tepper is leaning toward Steichen

On Albright's most recent broadcast, his words on our situation were that he doesn't know if Payton really wants Carolina, or if Carolina really even wants Payton.

 

Interesting kinda like Harbaugh

but he’s just saying “he thinks”

Dallas?

Could be.  Jerrah as much as said he was going to fire McCarthy when he gave him his endorsement after the game Sunday.

But that aside, the rumor/speculation of Payton to Dallas has gone on since Payton stepped aside in New Orleans.  It would not surprise me to learn McCarthy was either fired, stepped down, or was perhaps moved "up" in the organization, despite of Jerrah's endorsement.

That same rumor/speculation has been going on with the Chargers, but as @Mr. Scot said, that seems to be unlikely given what they have done since their playoff exit.  Still, one never knows.

Your anti-Payton bias is annoying. Can you at least be fair in your reporting?

It's ridiculous. He turns a complete deaf ear to anything other than what he wants to hear. 

Ben Albright has been catastrophically wrong so many times but Scot takes him as the holy gospel.

Our buddy John Ellis mentioned another possibility, specifically that this could be another leak from Payton's agent.

I’ve seen Quinn listed as the favorite as well and Albright just says “he thinks” Carolina doesn’t want him. Basically we don’t know anything. I still don’t think Payton will be here, but it’s not impossible.

    • With the contract money an OT first rounder makes you can ALWAYS get a new girlfriend.  And probably an upgrade at that.  You only got 2 parents.
    • Brother. You are wholly confusing comparing situations and applying actual standards like most other franchises do like simply getting into a playoff series and winning at least 1 or 2 series games with praising. Nobody is praising the Hawks. Nobody is praising the Magic. Nobody here likes those teams. But reality is reality. The Hawks like other franchises have traded players fired coaches etc but they can still win a couple playoff games. How is that not the bare floor for you or anyone else? What are we doing here if it isn't? We've seen eye to eye on many things over the years. But you are in the camp on the Hornets where you are emotionally attached to LaMelo where you feel the need to carry his water like he's got that juice. That's cool that you feel that way. It's your prerogative. But I differ from that viewpoint entirely. If he had that juice we would not have gotten wiped off the court in 2 play in games with 2 different coaching staffs and rosters. if people don't like hearing that well I'm sorry but how the hell is this team ever going to get better and ultimately go anywhere in the postseason if we just blindly pat them on the back for getting their asses whooped before they actually even get into the real playoffs? There seem to be some Bryce Young level standards being applied here. That's wild to me. But to each his own.
    • Proctor/Freeling were always the belles of the ball where we were picking. What those two *could* become at OT was far greater than what others could be at their respective positions and I’m glad our FO could see that.
