Lol !

Re: Cards, Texans permitted to interview Sean Payton
 

Wait. If the Saints don't have the final say in the decision on where Payton goes what leverage do they have to pit the two teams against each other? Payton doesn't give a crap what the Saints get in compensation. In fact, the more they get the less he has as assets with his new team. :confused:

Re: Cards, Texans permitted to interview Sean Payton
 

hmmm circular reasoning. I may need to consult ChatGPT to keep up with your "logic"

Re: Cards, Texans permitted to interview Sean Payton
 

Not my logic. Not at all. I was attempting to understand yours. I'm sticking with ...

1) The Saints give permission to teams to talk to Payton if they agreed to lowest level of compensation

2) Payton and those teams then feel each other out to determine mutual interest

3) Interested teams make an offer to Payton

4) Payton decides which offer he wishes to accept or whether he wants to return to Fox instead

5) If Payton wishes to accept an offer, the acquiring team and the Saints negotiate final terms of compensation for rights to Payton

Note: I cannot see the scenario where Payton does not care which of two offers he accepts and allows the Saints and those two offering teams to enter into some sort of bid war to determine where he goes. Nor can I see the scenario of two teams willing to bid against each other for his rights if Payton cannot make up his mind where he wants to go.

My logic isn't circular at all. Very linear.

To be fair, I am uncertain how mamy folks even understand what ChatGPT even is ! :rofl:

My teenage daughter is an Influencer/Content creator for Amazon and when she first used that word in conversation, I was like "what the hell is a ChatGPT?" :mad: :confused:

Dialog generation software. Pretty cool, but dangerous in that it doesn't necessarily use sufficiently supported arguments. But, then again, neither does most of its human counterparts. LOL!

Re: Cards, Texans permitted to interview Sean Payton
 

I read somewhere it was used to successfully pass some sort of law examination.

Other exams as well.... Holy Cow!

:awe:

Re: Cards, Texans permitted to interview Sean Payton
 

Yup. It is pretty fascinating. Read the same things about it. A couple of them pointed out the unsupported facts flaw at this point that I mentioned.

Re: Cards, Texans permitted to interview Sean Payton
 

Whaddya know - a new day, a BRAND NEW news cycle narrative on Sean Payton. This time (!) wait for it.... he's "definitely more likely than not" to return to Fox.

GASP!!!

Re: Cards, Texans permitted to interview Sean Payton
 

Let's not forget that Sean Payton said himself that a return to Fox was most likely before the interviews even started.

This from an interview over 18 days ago ...

When asked about his odds of returning to the FOX studio in 2023 on a scale of one to ten, Payton responded “Seven,” with a straight face. So he’s more likely to stay in the studio than return to a sideline.

Dallas isn't an option for Sean Payton.

Besides, isn't Mike and Sean essentially the same HC? If Dallas were even interested in firing their coach, Dan Quinn is next in line for that job.

Re: Cards, Texans permitted to interview Sean Payton
 

The senior Walton is away on a hunting trip and wants to be in on the next interview from what I heard. I wonder if that's what he's talking about?

Re: Cards, Texans permitted to interview Sean Payton
 

I've always been of the mind that there's no way Payton and Jones could coexist with the control that Payton demands and the control that the Jones' have always been so reluctant to relinquish. Maybe they are getting desperate enough to make that move. But, as much as they love their draft picks that's going to be a sticking point, as well.

Re: Cards, Texans permitted to interview Sean Payton
 

Re: Cards, Texans permitted to interview Sean Payton
 

And then there's this on the Cowboys front. I believe that Dallas would have to clear it through the league that they have permission from the Saints before making any contact with Payton. This is what cost Miami a first round pick this year.

The New Orleans Saints are in such a deep hole that they desperately need Sean Payton to take a job this year. Let's just hope he doesn't take Jeff Ireland with him.

Re: Cards, Texans permitted to interview Sean Payton
 

It seems no team wants Payton because of draft picks they would have give. He should come back to the Saints. Maybe that's why Loomis is keeping Allen and Carmichael.

Re: Cards, Texans permitted to interview Sean Payton
 

Frank Reich hired as the new Carolina Panthers Head Coach.

Re: Cards, Texans permitted to interview Sean Payton
 

Frank is a solid hire for the Panthers.

The NFC South just got a little bit tougher.

Re: Cards, Texans permitted to interview Sean Payton
 

Which seems bizarre considering Loomis said "every team asking about Payton is aware of the compensation required to get him."

Now all of a sudden teams are acting like this is new information.

Re: Cards, Texans permitted to interview Sean Payton
 

With Reich off the market, I feel like there's a bit more impetus on Denver to land CSP.

Re: Cards, Texans permitted to interview Sean Payton
 

Re: Cards, Texans permitted to interview Sean Payton
 

Re: Cards, Texans permitted to interview Sean Payton
 

So is that 1st rounder from Denver still on the table for SP?

I'd take that #1, get SP out of the NFC & let's geaux.

Make it happen Loomis :bng:

Re: Cards, Texans permitted to interview Sean Payton
 

A 1 and two 3s for Sean Payton?

The Waltons should know "value" when they see it. LOL

Re: Cards, Texans permitted to interview Sean Payton
 

Honestly 76', I'd take that all day.

Re: Cards, Texans permitted to interview Sean Payton
 

I believe it's the other way around. It's fans of the team trying to save face saying that their team thinks the compensation is too high. The teams themselves haven't said anything. As Pat Kirwan said today on NFL Radio, if he was Payton he wouldn't take any of these positions and wait for something better next year. I believe Payton told Carolina and at least a couple of others he wasn't interested.

Re: Cards, Texans permitted to interview Sean Payton
 

Yup. It sounds like Payton doesn't like the way one of the Broncos' owners came across. Payton isn't taking any job that he doesn't absolutely love. He's got a gravy job that he really likes right now so he can afford to wait.
