Can we just hire Sean Payton and be done with it?

xwalker · Nov 27, 2019

Same reason they can't just hire Belichick.

Sean Payton is under contract with another team (The Saints).

Why can't I spend the money in Jerry's bank account...

You have zero awareness when it comes to details.

This just happened two months ago:

Saints, Sean Payton agree to five-year extension

Given JG began this season as a lame duck, and everyone knew it, it seems Payton wasn't waiting for Jerry to call. It takes two to tango.

Hi Mrs. Benson,

We know that you recently signed Sean Payton to 5 year extension but we have decided to sign him out from under you.

Thank you

Why? Ya'll say Garrett is too conservative, I say Peyton is too aggressive and takes too many risks, but in ten years he does have 1 ring, uh okay.

exciter · Nov 27, 2019

He's managed one super bowl with prime Brees as the QB for the majority of it. Honestly I think he's a bit overrated. But then having to deal with hearing about the team constantly in Louisiana I'm probably a bit biased!

darthseinfeld · Nov 28, 2019

Unfortunately he is not an option anymore. His old contract with the Saints had a clause in it that he could get out if ownership changed (it did). It fueled alot of speculation that he could join Dallas if Garrett (which I think would have happened).

He doesn't have that out in his contract anymore

What is the love affair with Payton and Cowboy fans about? Hes a great offensive mind and above avg HC who is still living off the super bowl 10 years ago

Since JG took over in 2011, Payton has only been slightly better. Hes avg 9.8 wins to JG 9 wins. Hes had 3 straight 7-9 seasons to JG 3 straight 8-8 seasons. Hes 4-4 in the play offs to JG 2-3.

I dont get it. If we hired a HC and he won a super bowl in the first 4 years, but followed that with 8 years of 9.8 wins a season, 4 playoff wins, with 3 straight 7-9 seasons, would you still want him to be the coach? Would you, or we as fans, want to keep him around for a super bowl 10 years prior? Do you think this forum would be full of Payton is great post? My guess is that this forum would have as many threads that he needed to fired as they do with JG needing to be fired.

ONly if youre not going to cry about it when Dallas has to give up 2 RD1 picks for him.

TheMarathonContinues · Nov 28, 2019

Right. He was never a option. To my knowledge he’s friends with Jerry so he knows better than to sign to him.

TheMarathonContinues · Nov 28, 2019

I was gonna say something similar.....Sean Payton has had some dreadful years after that Super Bowl and these past few years his teams are stacked and doesn’t have much success with those stacked teams.

LatinMind · Nov 28, 2019

in 2013 Belichick signed a 7 yr extension which would take him to 2019. I think it was reported in the offseason or late last yr that he signed another extension but then later was reported that he just got a raise for the 2019 season his 7th and last remaining yr.

Somehow his contract is nowhere to be found which is crazy as every contract is on the internet except for Belichicks.

But if you think about it, it makes sense to have just given him a raise, as Josh McDaniel had the Colts job already and gave it up to stay in NE. Brady signed a 2 yr extension for 2019, and 2020 with 2020 voidable.

I think Belichick is going to be available. Jerry would be a fool to not give him whatever he wanted to bring him in.

exciter · Nov 28, 2019

If you were a fan base that spent you're teams 1st 30 years wearing paper bags on your head then probably!

LittleD · Nov 28, 2019

He just signed a new contract with NO. He's not interested in working for Jerry again. In fact, no quality HC wants to work for Jerry. Jerry likes to meddle so why do
you think Parcells left?

rnr_honeybadger · Nov 28, 2019

How about Dabo Sweeney?

birdwells1 · Nov 28, 2019

Every time Payton's been available JG goes on some winning streak to reach 8-8 (that only serves himself) and give JJ hope.

big dog cowboy · Nov 28, 2019

The OP still confuses me.

CB61 · Nov 28, 2019

Do you know what the cost of that would be? Very very high

hsfolk · Nov 28, 2019

at least 2 first round picks

CB61 · Nov 28, 2019

At least and I don't know if Sean Payton would go there anyway? Maybe if Brees retired? I know we shouldn't dwell in the past but we had Sean Payton here knowing that Bill Parcells was not a long-term option we could have made him assistant head coach paid him the money with a promise he take over imagine how different that would have been? He was a big Drew Brees fan Drew Brees might have ended up in Dallas who knows? Remember Brees did not have any options as people thought he was washed up after injury

Can we just hire Sean Payton and be done with it?
