I don’t think they are considering Payton anymore. The comp to the saints is too big a pill for most teams to swallow let alone a division rival. I think the interview was more feeling out and conversation than an actual interview 

I wasn’t saying that, I had read from insiders that all the teams were waiting for the Payton domino to fall.

He was a finalist last year in miami, I suspect he is lights out in interviews and its only a matter of time before someone gives him a shot

Yea his interview was so good, it almost made Tepper and this search committee back off its experienced HC only mantra they've had since nearly the beginning.

I wonder how much Ben McAdoo played into the interview because Moore and him worked together in Dallas in 2021

Not sure,  would make sense if the team wanting experienced hc at a coordinator spot for anyone Young and first time hc is true...which seems to be the case.

Do you think he’s doing this to feel the waters for next time? 

I've heard he really wanted the Broncos or Panthers jobs. 

Broncos owners like Paton and didn't want to give him up, definitely the case in Houston. Dunno about Arizona cause that's weird and reeks of desperation on Payton's side. 

Panthers probably balked at the combination of cost per year plus control after the Rhule debacle. Also the off field concerns with Bounty gate but more importantly the pills. 

 

Think he's just being turned down for one reason or another every where he's interviewed

Summing up the process...

- Nine candidates interviewed

- Wilks given a shot

- No to Sean Payton and several youngsters

- We're the first team to make a hire

- And we have our first offensive coach in team history

Whew 😐

Next up: Hiring assistants

My guess-

possible OCs:

-Kevin Patullo

-Mike McCoy

-Brian Johnson

Possible DCs

-Gus Bradley

-Dave Borgonzi

-John Fox (Yeah the same one)

Possible STCs

-Chris Tabor

-Bubba Vetrone

    • Oh I totally get it, but just because we can do that, doesn't mean it's the right way to go.  If this was Madden with video game players, then sure, do it because it helps the cap.  But with real people, doing that is likely only going to piss him off and make him want to sign with any other team the following offseason. I'm not saying give him a stupid deal, but giving him like $3-5 million for the one season would be a massive raise over the minimum, it wouldn't hurt our cap situation, he'd still likely play well above that level of contract, and it would help keep him happier with the franchise. But in the end, all I really want is for them to find a way to make sure they won't be needing to do deals for both Coker and T-Mac in the same offseason, as that's a terrible way to spend your cap space in a single offseason.  Separating their contracts expiring/negotiations into different offseasons would be the best way to keep them both around long term.
    • Going into that drive with 3 timeouts in our back pocket, I could never imagine the game plan was for Bryce to throw the ball away 3 times in a row to result to this 4th down situation. 3 fuging time outs available and acted like it was hail mary situation
    • Absolutely should have been a fireable offense (and this coming from a guy who defended Evero throughout the season) There is only 3 outcomes you want on that drive. 1) Turnover  2) sack 3) They score fast so we get the ball back with a lot of time and 3 timeouts to win the game We chose the absolutely WORST possible scenario. We let them waltz down the field playing soft zone AND let them kill the clock in the process. If there was EVER a time to play aggressive with no consequence, it was on that drive. Ok, we play aggressive and get burnt on a long TD. Who cares, then we have the last possession to go win the game with 3 timeouts and  at least 1:30 left. Pisses me off just watching that video.
