This is a very good point.

You can’t block interviews if the position is a promotion though right? He can’t block Dennis Allen or Jeff Ireland from interviewing with the Bears for example.

I don’t know… this might not be BS after all. Too much smoke.

No to Dennis Allen. He’s not HC material.

Past history suggests that def coordinators do not transition well as Head Coaches. Fangio, Romeo C, Saleh, Allen (Raiders) have failed.

Bellichick is the outlier.

Mike Tomlin, Pete Carroll, Mike Vrabel, Sean McDermott, Ron Rivera, Braden Staley, etc. Belichick is not an outlier.

Some guys are meant to be coordinators though. Whether Allen is one of them, who knows. I'm sure we'll find out sooner than I'd like to know.

I’m speaking in terms of championships.

Nonetheless, Dennis isn’t HC material. His background is all defense and I don’t see him as an offensive mind.

Correct. But the part about interviewing others by the Saints makes sense.

Just got a notification from the Score app on my phone. It says Payton is stepping away after 15 years.

Payton has "Stepped Away" according to Ian Rapoport
