Twitter: Cowboys were interested in Sean Payton

[Runwildboys]

So does that mean, "Shhhhh! We're in that tampering area." or "Shhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh!!! We're in that tampering area!"

I think they would have fired Garrett had a big name been an option. It was clear when they didnt give him an extension that they were ready to move on. I think that they arent willing willing to go with lesser proven guys with a rostee they feel can compete.

Sean Payton would've been the best possible hire. Pissed Jerry couldn't make that happen.

Should have done it years ago. He maybe got caught up in post season hysteria with Parcells and thought he had lightning in a bottle.

I hope this news (if true) gets back to Garrett and hurts his feelings, lool.

Monday he will float rumors he is interested in the Commanders job

The last 3 seasons the Saints have had the best team in the NFC with no SB appearance to show for it. Sean blames this on everyone but himself. Doesnt mean he is not a good coach but is telling on what type of person he is.

So he would have for right in here.

Here's the truth on what happened which is completely different than your version. That non-pass interference called came when the 3rd down play started with 1:49 left in the 4th quarter. If a flag was thrown the saints would have had a 1st and goal at the rams 3 yard line. Equally important was that the rams only had 1 time out left. The saints could have taken all but 2 or 3 seconds off the clock and kicked a chip shot field goal to win or they could have just run straight ahead after taking a knee at least once and scored a TD which would have meant the rams would have had to drive the field with no time outs left and little time to tie the game.
.

Time either was or was not on the clock with a chance to win the game. This is either the true version or it wasnt. The players on that team are a reflection of him. As good as they are all they do is make excuses....seems to be happening real time during the game as well. Ref made a bad call....get over it because you have time to win the game.

That would probably be considered tampering. I call
BS.

The Jones family wants Garrett to succeed period
and do everything in their power to try and make it happen, the long-term success of the franchise be damned.

That is actually my point against Sean as coach. But I can dig the sarcasm

?

Never mind, you meant "4".

Cowboys under Jones are always entertaining - like watching a horrific train wreck if nothing else.

Replace "for" with "fit"

 

[khiladi]

Nonsense.. It’s tampering. The Jones want their adopted son Garrett to win period.

 

[Runwildboys]

My bad.....but "4" works too. lol

What drugs are you on? The saints ended up kicking a field goal because they didn't get the most blown call ever to take a 3 point lead. They then kicked off and the rams had 1:41 and they moved down the field and kicked a field goal of 48 yards to tie leaving just 15 seconds left on the clock. So according to you 15 seconds is enough time to have won that game. Oh besides the non pass interference call that wasn't called against the rams in the last series most people don't even talk about the offensive pass interference that wasn't called on the rams that got them into field goal range. Take some more drugs.

I think he's saying the 1:41 would've been enough time to win the game, had they not allowed the Rams to get into FG range.

Somehow someway the cowboys business always ends up on tv.

Gee I wonder how that happens.

Lets see. The Cowboys had Pacells as head coach and Payton as OC and the saints offer a head coaching job to Payton so how do the Cowboys keep their OC? Do they fire Parcells and make Payton head coach. Remember hindsight is always 20/20, and at the time Payton had never been a head coach. Now he turned out to be a really good head coach, but the list is a mile long of position coaches that don't make good head coaches so there would have been a risk involved if the Cowboys fire Parcells for Payton. So short of firing Parcells just how would the Cowboys been able to keep Payton?
