Very weird. Time for DA homers to put their money where their mouth is and take out a second mortgage.

These names make little sense to me. Jets will probably get Rodgers and they had the same record as us last year and have more money to spend and retain in free agency. Zach Wilson to Aaron Rodgers is a bigger upgrade than Andy Dalton to Derek Carr. Sauce Gardner is a true shutdown corner. Cleveland also had the same record as us and has a QB who could be MVP caliber but played with training camp and very rusty last year. But Clevelands coach is questionable. Jacksonville had Trevor Lawrence make a big jump his first year with a real coach, and what if he makes another jump? It would be easy to see Lawrence ascending to elite QB status and getting the Jags to 12-13 wins and netting Pederson coach of the year.

And sure, Sean Payton is a good coach. But like so is Bill Belichick. So is Pete Carroll. And the latter two have some draft picks and cap space compared to Sean. None have great QBs. I don't buy Payton as an overwhelming favorite for coach of the year. The Broncos lost a lot of games so he will have an easy time doing better, but they have a QB on a very bad contract so he will have a hard time doing a lot better.

I do like Dan Campbell. I think Robert Saleh would be my favorite. Doug Pederson also makes sense to me. Those would be my top 3 candidates.
