Hello Sean Payton!

[BAT]

Sean Payton coached for 15 years in the league while having one of the best QB's in the history of the game leading his offense. He was able to get a single SB win from that.

What are people expecting Sean Payton to be able to do here?

Win a playoff game or two?

MM will never do that.

How many 1st round draft picks would it cost us ?
If Sean has control over the Football operations like Parcells did , I would welcome it.
Anything to get Jerry out of the GM role.

Stephen is the bigger problem methinks.

Cheap as all get out.

still where i sit if you have top use draft picks im out on SP. hes not the savior IMO..now talk to me in February i may change my stance, i mean you trying to tell me if MM says i want to takeover play calls and demote or fire Moore, Jerry won't listen unless its SJ. Come on they have the same resumes!

Im pretty sure Quinn and MM have enough experience and clout to go in and say Moore just isnt the guy or Rush isnt enough and get te Jonses to go make moves..

I'm not up for giving up much at all for Payton, but I don't think they will have to.

Check out my other posts in this thread.

NO is not going to try to tell him he can't work when they aren't paying him, nor are they going to bring back a head coach that wishes to be elsewhere because they are trying to argue that they hold his rights for another year.

This gets settled with like a mid round pick, not multiple firsts.

People are thinking of this along the lines of Payton wanting to duck put of a multi year deal with NO, and go elsewhere immediately. That's different. Very different.

It's also not the same for players and coaches. They will let him go, and the cost won't be prohibitive is all I'm saying.

Sure, but they arent paying him on that 'contract.'

They also want to deny him the right to work? Think about how that may play out with an arbitrator.

Also, why assume they would play hardball with him? I don't think it ended unamicably. They are gonna let him go when the time comes.

Players and FO types are all intertwined, and a bad look is bad. This is not as if he wanted to quit NO and go elsewhere immediately. Different animal.

In fact when he signed that deal it was probably understood that he may not finish it.

Regardless, very moot point for now.

He left them in horrible cap situation, There may not be a public show of dislike going on but I'm sure the NO front office is not worried wether Payton gets mad they hold the contract to term.
