NGT- PFT article hinting at possible Payton to Boys

jvm52106 : 1/26/2023 8:58 am
as head coach. The article is about the boys not retaining 5 assistant coaches so far and at the end of the article talks about something else might be going on and mentions that Payton's candidacy elsewhere seems to have bogged down suddenly for some reason.

It is speculation of course BUT, Jones has wanted Payton for a long time..

I think fatty Mike is a goner

he's like a repeat of Wade Phillips -- they even have the same profile
Makes all the sense in the world, IMO

It wouldn’t surprise me in the least,

and I hope it doesn’t happen. I think Payton has become a little overrated as a HC, but he is a terrific offensive innovator and a good QB developer. McCarthy, on the other hand, is the gift that keeps on giving.
McCarthy had this team ready to play this year

Back to back 12 win seasons nothing to sneeze out. Dak just imploded this year with turnovers. Gallup first year back from knee surgery limited his play.I think he rebounds nicely next year to complement Lamb.
Big ? Is Dan Quinn continuing as DC. He has done an outstanding job as DC in Dallas. Do they re-sign VanderEsch who was terrific this year.
Not so sure they want to give up a first round draft pick for Payton.
The assistant coaches who left were on expiring contracts.
Personally imv Payton is overrated
NL East is hotting up as it is.

Add Payton to the mix, it'll become the toughest division.
They have the same resume  
Sean : 1/26/2023 9:26 am : link
Payton has one helluva PR firm behind him. Let’s not forget bounty gate.
Sean funny story on bounty gate  
Rick in Dallas : 1/26/2023 9:29 am : link
The assistant defensive coach who collected the bounty gate money lives next door to me.
It was real for sure…
the Saints are rumored to want  
Giantsfan79 : 1/26/2023 9:32 am : link
The equivalent of a high 1st for Payton. Here's to Jerry coughing up his 1 & 2 for Sean.
Payton is rumored to the Cowboys forever  
KDavies : 1/26/2023 9:41 am : link
I just don't know if he will want more control than he will have there.
I hope they get him  
Rudy5757 : 1/26/2023 9:49 am : link
And have to give up some comp picks. Dallas’ cap situation isn’t great. Dak counts $49 million against the cap in 2023. I don’t think they can lower that much if at all. Elliott will probably be cut for a dead cap of $12 mil. They are already $5 mil over the cap with 49 players signed.

TE Shultz, Vanderbilt Esch, S Wilson, G McGovern are FA. All played 70% of snaps.

I’m all for Dallas getting Payton and giving up picks.

Florio has been beating that drum for years  
Ben in Tampa : 1/26/2023 9:56 am : link
He mentions it literally every article he posts that discuses Sean Payton or the Cowboys
Don’t care if Payton goes there  
UConn4523 : 1/26/2023 9:58 am : link
it’ll allow me to keep hating him. But if it does happen I hope they are giving up major picks for him.
I don't quite understand this  
sb2003 : 1/26/2023 10:00 am : link
Was McCarthy that bad? If not for a few Dak mistakes and player missed opportunities on the field last week they'd be playing the Eagles this week.
Isn't Payton a strong willed guy  
Arkbach : 1/26/2023 10:00 am : link
and how will that mesh with Jerrah's meddling. Payton was the face of the Saints, but the Cowboys are Jerry's team.
Great..After the honeymoon stage passes,  
Big Blue '56 : 1/26/2023 10:05 am : link
clashing with Jerry in 3, 2, 1…..Yes Stephen is running a lot of things, but the Jerry ego will ALWAYS be present..

They barely beat a terrible Tampa team and then got to play against Purdy who looked lost. Has he been that bad? No, but I think it would be hard to with that roster. But he’s being paid to lift a Lombardi. And who knows how far they are from dong that with the players they have up against the cap right now.
I guess I shouldnt say barely beat Tampa  
UConn4523 : 1/26/2023 10:06 am : link
rather, Tampa was an awful team
Bring it on.

Also he won't have Drew Brees and the Superdome.
Hopefully this happens and Dallas gives

Dallas nation suffer from a collective hallucination that the Super Bowl is rightfully theirs every year, when they haven't been fucking good since Jerry Springer had a TV show.
Doesn't Payton  
GiantGrit : 1/26/2023 1:18 pm : link
Want $20-25 mil per year? Not worth that. He's a good coach but I agree with Sean, his resume is eerily similar to McCarthy.

I like Dak, his personal story is inspiring but he's not the same since the ankle break. It was obvious to me watching the SF game he's holding them back.
someone explain to me  
djm : 1/26/2023 1:29 pm : link
how Payton is any better than McCarthy let alone a clear slam dunk upgrade that would necessitate Dallas dumpng tons of money and resources in order to get him?

Don't tell me he's fat or he yells at his son's basketball coach or he had Aaron Rodgers. Give me something tangible. Anything.

PS, save your time, he isn't any better unless both HC's won/loss record and postseason record are not to be taken seriously.

Dallas isn't firing McCarthy prior to the 23 season. Hold me to it.

guy lost to the Vikings TWICE in NO  
djm : 1/26/2023 1:31 pm : link
and both times he had the much better QB. Then he lost to them in Minny for good measure.

Payton is a good coach. Maybe even great, but he's literally behind McCarthy in nearly every statistical category.

That is a significant hurdle. Jerry, Steven and Will McClay are deeply entrenched in their decision making process.

Looks like Sean won't be coaching this fall & will be returning to FOX.
