Sean Payton Staying In New Orleans

nickers

I doubt Payton will come here.. Were getting someone from the HS ranks I fear.

Only reason the price is low is probably because Payton doesn't wanna cripple his new team.

That being said I'd say the likely spot would be Indy.

Payton doesn't have any say in his price... but I agree on Indy... dome sweet dome...

As for Brees... no one will take on his contract as is with a $30MM cap hit in 2016, so step one is restructuring.

Throw in Drew Brees? The guy that sucks if the team is not operating at 100%? The guy who is too short to see over the line? That guy?

And put him on, wait for it, this team?

Along with a coach that doesn't want to be here? That's brilliant!

That guy has a super bowl ring...our midget can't show up when he's supposed to.

I'd give a 2nd and drunk johnnie for Payton and Brees

Payton would be my first choice if it were possible. He did rebuild the Saints! The down years for New Orleans have little to do with Payton. They have salary cap issues, high priced veterans etc. getting out of there would be the best thing for Payton. Taking the Browns job would be ideal for him. He would chose his quarterback, system, and plenty of cap space.

Boy oh boy don't get me started because I know we'll never get him. But what a coup that would be.

I forgot to mention that Drew Bree's is owed 30 million next year. One of the biggest reasons their defense sucks! Cap room and high priced veterans.

I'm going to say my Rosary and put a word in for Payton

I'd be okay with Payton, but only if the Rock is unavailable.

Well then I guess everyone bitching about height is wrong.

Everyone bitching about height is saying successful short QBs are the exception, not the rule. Brees and Wilson are those exceptions.

I think you may be sugar coating the insults but....

More often my point is proven that shity teams have unsuccessful quarterbacks no matter how tall they are. I would bet dollars to dog sgit that Drew Brees would suck canal water with Mike Pettineso Browns.

You could say that about just about any QB outside of about 3 guys. Put Joe Flacco, Andy Dalton, Russell Wilson, Eli Manning or any of a number of guys back there and you have the same issue of being able to repeat the success outside of that bubble.

Westside Steve

Exactly true. Yet we obsess.

If you even have an outside shot at Payton go for it.

Been thinking about Payton. I like this idea a lot. He's a great coach and has won. Also with his ties within the coaching and players and he can shuffle a roster. He took a losing team and took them to the SB. That's what the Browns need.

Also Payton has a demeamer about himself people enjoy. A school kid approach to football wearing baseball caps in a town eager to win would be awesome. Much better than a wannabe badass.

As the title reads. Sean Payton maybe out in NO. I always thought that he might be a great fit for JFF, but alas, JFF has proved, that his head is squarely up his ass and will probably land in Dallas. But I still think Payton would be a good choice. Seasoned coach, SB win, and with the right talent, can have a dynamic offense.

BUUUUT.... would he even consider coming here with our new state of the art organizational structure?

per joe banners quote on mike and mike, with this new moneyball type of structure, no decent coach would ever want to get involved with it...dat means sean payton...

Seems like a low price for a coach with the ability to take a team to the Superbowl.

One might wonder why the Saints aren't headed to the championship with the great Drew Brees and such a wonderful coach?

WSS

might have something to do with the worse defense ever since the inception of football....don't think that is a drew brees issue...not sure about peyton if he gets involved with drafting players...don't know how there structure is set up...

bbedward

We're not getting Sean Peyton - and it has nothing to do with the moneyball tactic.

At least a dozen NFL teams have started using more advanced metric ideas, such as the patriots. It's not new we just seem the most committed to it.

Were we in that dozen-plus prior to two days ago?
