I posted this another thread but if Kellen Moore is let go from Dallas, I could see him coming in as OC and be one of those "waiting in the wings" guys. I mean, Reich is 61 but still has several years left in him to coach but eventually will need a contingency plan once Reich decides to retire if it gets to that point.

Actually, I'd say the reason why Sean Payton is waiting right now is because nobody really seems to want him that badly.

(we sure didn't)

Not for a 1st round draft pick plus whatever else. He's not exactly the most likable or trustworthy guy, had no problem quitting on the Saints when the roster started looking long in the tooth and finally in cap hell

Yea I think the whole mid to late first round pick was some bullshit. It’s two firsts minimum imo. And as much as I’d love it, just too much.

Is Sean Payton a significant upgrade over Mike McCarthy or would they basically be making a sideways move?

Both coached hall of fame caliber quarterbacks at the Saints and Packers.

Both coached in and won 1 Super Bowl and never returned.

McCarthy lost three other NFC championship games and Payton lost two NFC championship games.

McCarthy got 6 division titles to Payton’s 7 division titles.

McCarthy’s record with the Packers was 125-77-2 .618, with a record in the play offs of 10-8 .556. Payton’s record with the Saint’s was 152-89 .631 and 9-8 .529 in the play offs.

Seasons with 10+ wins is 8 to McCarthy and 9 to Payton.

- - -

Their resumes are nearly identical.

Some will obviously give Payton’s offense the edge and call McCarthy’s archaic and question some of his play calling, but realistically there isn’t a great deal in it between them to say one is a significant upgrade over the other. It would be a sideways move in many ways.

Let’s say we had the quarterback - Justin Herbert, Trevor Lawrence (etc) - then sending two firsts wouldn’t be a huge problem if we believed that Payton would take that QB to the next level and take us towards Super Bowl contention. 

Obviously losing the chance to add first round talent and giving our rivals that chance hurts, but if the upside is Super Bowl contention it could be a worthwhile short term pain worth enduring. 

However, we don’t have the quarterback and can’t afford to trade away our firsts because we are still rebuilding. So like you, it’s too much to give up.

Ohhh ok this has gotten interesting.  Not the biggest Moore fan but he's soo freaking young.  Could see him learning a lot under a guy like Reich.

I know some Dallas fans Last year who wanted McCarthy fired and him have the HC job

      Bryce Young 5th year option exercised

      By tukafan21 · Posted

      Except it takes those QB's a few years to develop because they needed to learn the mental side of the game and have it catch up to their physical attributes. Bryce was supposed to be a QB savant who already had a fully developed mental side of the game and that was going to make up for his lack of physical ability.  And his lack of NFL level QB physical traits has been clear as day to anyone who has watched him the last 3 years, mainly, he just doesn't have an NFL arm, he can't zip the ball into tight spaces or throw on a line down the field like is needed at this level.

      Don’t recall seeing many of his interviews but what strikes me is that he engages and goes in depth. Even with the cliche answers as referenced by OP come across somewhat thoughtful.  Very likable personality despite being someone who can crush an average person like I can crush a paper cup. I knew Motons mother had a career at MSU but was looking on the google and found that Mushin Muhammad personally knew Motons grandfather.   His late grandfather was a professor at MSU.   Cool guy.  Interesting family and small world.

      I think people aren’t patient enough with Young. It can take a few years for a QB to develop. Look at Darnold, Baker and most recently Daniel Jones.   he hasn’t been able to put up big passing numbers either cause of how much we run the ball. You can tell our coaching staff still hasn’t took the training wheels off Bryce and let him go all out. We’ve had some pretty bad receivers as well. We finally got a true number one last year and look how much Bryce improved. Still we didn’t really have any depth behind TMac. Coker was hurt for a lot of the year and XL was our #2. How many big plays or TDs has XL dropped? I think this year can be the year we see Bryce able to hit his stride. If not then we can start looking for another qb but I just ask people to be patient.
