John specifically mentioned to someone that he doesn't see Mike Kafka being in the mix.

Surprised to see Kafka that far down the list.

Didn’t the athletic say Payton wasn’t the lead in Denver 

Not that I recall seeing...

Breer to name one off top of my head, he mentioned that it looked like Quinns job to loose since it appears Payton is out in Denver. 

Don't recall seeing bere mention Psyton being "out" in Denver. The only thing I've heard him say recently was that he thinks the longer this drags on, the more likely it is he's going back to television.

Yea that flows with what Reed said the other day about Kafka and Dorsey.

Ben Johnson dropping out opened the door back open for Wilks

So either Steichen nails this interview/wants the job or it’ll be Wilks job

I'll always wonder if he would have gotten the job.

If the next HC is not Wilks, I think the next guy will have a harder time winning over the locker room. At the end of the day the players will have to suck it up and play but we've already seen what happens when the team doesn't buy in (ex. Rhule.) Wilks already has the support of the locker room and team captains, he just needs to convince Tepper and Fitterer that he has a plan for the offense/QB situation. I think if Tepper isn't blown away by one of these young offense coordinators, Wilks will be the guy. 

If you guys were in Wilks position, how would you guys pitch your plan to Fit and Tepper?

Kaye doesn't really sound like he's taking the Payton thing too seriously either...

The article headline mentioned it but I don't think it does in the actual article. Think the headline was growing belief Payton not the favorite in Denver. 

 

I'll try to find what I saw on lunch. 

[Mr. Scot]

Albright doesn't buy that this is bad for the Saints...

My guess is if the truth were told, a lot of the stuff that came out about Payton was probably planted by his agent.

And when the team “buys in” we still got showings like we did in Cincy and home against Pittsburgh

If that’s the team buying into what’s going on then it’s time for a change already

These players have never won more than six games in their career. Them acting like they should be getting their way on this is hilarious lol. No one on this team has the luxury of mailing it in because they’re mad they don’t get the coach they want.

what an absolute disaster hire steve wilks will be

[FuFuLamePoo]

Anything but Steichen will feel like a minor disappointment to me at this point.

Don't care about a locker room full of guys who haven't even been to a playoff game. 2/3 of them will be turned over in a couple years anyway if the new coach is worth his salt.
