If Sean Payton comes to Dallas

Here is another thing in your favor.

Would Jerry just let Philly grab him. That would be a demoralising hit to our fan base if Philly uses their resources to get Sean Payton while we sit on our thumbs.

I truly believe there's two places he would coach, it's possible he'll return to the Saints but when he hears of the head coaching job opening up in Dallas after the season, he'll be drooling all the way to Arlington.

If offered the job there's no way he turns it down.

I like how all the people who say there is zero chance of him coming here either have no reasons why or Brees is their only answer.

Has nothing to do with Brees, and everything to do with the quality of the organization and where it is going.

Agreed but Philly pushing for him is nothing but a good thing for Dallas. Unless of course they actually get him :(
 
This is an impossible question to answer because there's no doubt in my mind that if Payton wants to coach here, he'll be the coach here.

I don't care what anyone says until that decision is made, including Payton himself. I don't care what he says he "plans" to do.

All I care about is what he says when Jerry calls him this offseason and asks if he would have any interest in coaching the Cowboys. And I do believe Jerry will make that phone call. And I do believe Payton is the only guy Jerry would jettison Garrett for and if Payton says he wants to come here, he's going to be our next coach.

Which would point to the most glamorous team and prestigious coaching position in American Sports. The Cowboys.

Now the Eagles are a team where there's zero chance. Crappy organization, horrible place to live, no QB and a fanbase that hates everyone and everything.

I'm sure he'll listen to all offers.

Heck I wouldn't be either. You either win a bet or see your team significantly upgrade their head coach. Win-Win
Yeah, I'm not so sure of that one as you experts are. Me and Nate Newton.

Glamorous, like a Vegas show...sure, but not prestigious.
 
Payton isn't coming here and what players outside of Drew Brees do the Aint's have that you are clamoring for? Marcus Colston? That's about it. If anything that GM has been getting a break for that defense because its terrible.

Jimmy Graham, Lance Moore, Devery Henderson, Jermon Bushrod, or Ben Grubbs would all suit me just fine.

I would rather coach Drew Brees and not have to work with Jerry Jones


Until you have actually worked for Jerry, you can't determine anyone else wouldn't want to work for him.....seems to me Jerry hasn't had any issues with hiring anyone or anyone wanting to work for him.
 
I bet the JJ/JG honeymoon is about over and JJ is realizing that his gamble to hit on a next Belicheck has failed. I believe JJ drank all the media koolaide on JG but I don't think he is into JG that much. He let him interview with STL job couple of years back and let him go back for second interview.

JJ realizes that losing puts the focus on him and his records as bad GM, so when a proven HC is available - the business man in him will pull the trigger and get it done. Hoping that Sean Payton will be our HC next year, he needs a couple of pieces along the OL, but rest of the offense is there for him to do his magic

Werder knows Payton 1000x better than anyone here, and he says Payton would love to coach here. He loves the area, he likes Jerry, plus he's going through a divorce and his kids are here. And don't underestimate his desire for recognition in turning this team around.

That doesn't mean it will work out, because odds are still that it probably won't. But don't think he wouldn't want to coach this team.

My thoughts exactly.

You are forgetting that Romo is Paytons friends off the field, Romo is actually Payton's QB he brought in and he and his family LIVE in Dallas. Maybe most importantly, being the HC of the Cowboys is the absolute pinnacle of American sports coaching. That's the top of the coaching mountain.

I agree and will add that both he and Romo qb'd at Eastern Illinois.
 
Payton coming here is almost meant to be really. He should've gotten the job after Parcells left, but he bolted to the Saints a year before Parcells retired. He and Romo are great friends on/off the field and Payton actually has a good relationship with Jerry. If Payton came here and turned around this franchise and won a Super Bowl, he would be known as one of the greatest coaches in NFL history. He'd be a legend.

I just don't see how Jerry could pass up an opportunity like this. Although Payton probably wants to stay in New Orleans and most likely will stay there, if somehow they don't reach an agreement and we miss the playoffs again ... Payton should be the head coach next year. There's no excuse if it doesn't happen.
