I agree. I'm torn because Sean doesn't seem like the kind of guy who would do that ala Pete Carrol, but man after having that position sewed up and played at the highest level for a decade it's got to be frustrating.

In Payton I trust. Give it a few days, Chris. I have a feeling things will clear up quickly.

I don't want to return to the pre Payton era. We need a good HC regardless of whether he stays or not. Is Allen up to the job? I have no clue. I think we should probably give him a year and see where we are at. If it doesn't work out, we'll have a good place in the draft and the opportunity to take someone that would be a skilled HC. I would not mind Pete Carroll tbh. I think Seattle is crazy to want to get rid of him. I think he's a incredible motivator and probably a fun guy to play under. The ultimate player's coach.

I'm going with the wait and see approach on this one.

Lets say Payton does decide to step away from football... would fans be against this?

HC - Dennis Allen
OC - Pete Carmichael
DC - Ryan Nielsen

All moot if we make a big acquistion at quarterback. You can bet Payton would put this rumor to rest with the quickness.

I don't know Dennis Allen papz. He's smart but he doesn't know how to close and always loses a stinker or two to brain *****.
