After pulling that off he had nothing else to prove here and moved on, just like his Mentor: Bill Parcells!

Interesting as well that he “moved on” to a team that had a QB that has been to 2 SBs already. Not exactly a developmental guy.

I mean, he took the job that was available. I don't think a team with a 1st round pick QB made an offer. We don't know how Payton would do developing a 1st round pick QB because he has never tried. He did make Winston look better than others did.
