Payton-Haslett

Clearly, Payton is a better coach than Haslett when it comes to strategy and in-game adjustments. If the team continues to play well more consistently like we have seen so far this year and not suffer meltdowns, then it's clear that Payton is also a much better motivator as a head coach. I still think Haslett could have been a good coach beyond year 1 had things not fallen apart in the organization. Mueller's departure was a big setback and the defection of Ron Zook to Florida (darn Spurrier and his NFL pipe dream) crippled our defense. The organization and Haslett himselff compounded the problem by making bad personnel decisions from there and adding mediocre candidates to the coaching staff.
