Very good point.

So Bill Belichick is probably up there in the same ego class as SP.
Belichick let's Tom Terrific walk and how did that all work out for the Patriots.

Oh right the simple genius signed Cam.
Patriots 2020 record 7-9.

This is a drivers question and unless you know Sean Paytons drivers its impossible to answer with any logic.

Folks, Payton isn't going anywhere! Ownership loves him and pays him well. He has put together a strong staff that will need to be restocked after we get raided for coaches. He is basically autonomous. Why would he leave? Every year this question comes around and Payton just keeps coming back. Let the rumors die folks....Please.

I’m sure there other teams out there that are a head coach and a couple players away from being contenders who would break the bank for him.
If he leaves in the next couple years to you promote from within and give DA another shot as a head coach? Anyone else?
I don’t see Payton hanging around much longer honestly.

I was with you the first half of your comments but you kinda derailed me when the Payton leaving started. Ain’t Sean’s fault his teams have failed him. Can’t be easy to give walking papers to an aging future HOF QB. But that’s what Sean’s been dealing with the last few seasons. But if he had a time machine, he probably would have cut bait with Drew and brought in a guy like Matt Stafford.
Imagine Stafford in this offense the last four seasons. Minimum 2 Lombardi’s. Don’t believe me, only took Tampa one season bringing in Brady and now they have a shot.
Drew’s done, has been for quite some time.

As for the DA part of your question Dude I would go a different route. A young, offensive mind would be may target. If Behinemy (Spelling) hadn’t got a shot yet I’d look there.

We have been one of the most successful teams in the league over the last 4 years and it wasn’t until this offseason that coaches and members of the FO started leaving in droves. Makes you wonder. Sure we lose one or two a year maybe but some have chosen to stay instead of taking a job that may have been a step up. This year it kinda seems like they are jumping ship.

They may be jumping ship for a better job but it's not because we are sinking. They are leaving in droves because they've done a good job and the league sees it.
