Confidence in Payton
With the play call that basically cost us the game, I am wondering if the players are having confidence issues with Payton as a coach. If the coach is calling plays that will lose games and player confidence heads south then so does the team. We will see how this team responds for the next 4 games, if they tank it or play hard for coach Payton??

Re: Confidence in Payton
Payton will learn from this bad experience. In fact, if he studies the tape of how Gruden handled his aggressiveness with control, he'll be an even better play-caller for the future.
Then cut those players. The door is cracked open its not closed yet. YOU PLAY TO WIN THE GAME.........HELLO...... YOU PLAY TO WIN THE GAME. |

Re: Confidence in Payton
I don't think the players will question him, if no one haven't to this point, they won't now. Payton just has to learn from this and move on.

Re: Confidence in Payton
He resurfaces!!!!!!!!!!!! good to see ya.
No Sean has my vote still. I think he will learn. The statement Henderson would still be running if the pitch worked is not correct. The game tape will show the panthers did not bite hard on the misdirection. Any how Sean did learn something. I HOPE |

Re: Confidence in Payton
IMO the players still believe in their coach and will continue to play hard for him and they know he'll turn this team around sooner than later.
Sean called a bad play at the wrong time on the game, don't you think he still feels bad for his mistake?, I say yes he does. |

If we have any shot of winning we need to communicate.

Re: Confidence in Payton
Remember how "Instantaneously" Sean Payton adjusted his game plans for more running?
NFC Conference Game and counting, still haven't seen the fruit of it. Remember all the "success" we had with blitzing? Still don't see any type of commitment to blitzing and attacking defense. The only vibes I get from this whole dink n' dunk regime of Paytons is that they're a little too "smart" for their own good. A little too theory and artsy. A little too pro-character, rather than smack you in the mouth (the quintessential hallmark of FOOTBALL). Merry Christmas! |
