I don't totally agree with Ryan's comments that he wasn't in charge of the defense, but the truth, as always, is probably somewhere in the middle. To go from 4th in the league to dead last the next 2 says something else was going on. JMHO......

Must be true in Oakland too?? His third season they were 3rd in yards and the next season 22 and then 27th....

It's going to be fun to watch the Buffalo sidelines for the next couple of seasons. Wonder how long it will take before he is outed by his brother... :doh:

Ryan is a hardass and that will work for a while but players tire of that type of leadership very quickly and don't respond well at all. This is the reason his defenses take after the first year.

"I have a championship to win" said he while with Dallas. Oh yes "He" lost the game and "He" didn't win the division!

I would feel more comfortable if Payton would just leave the defense alone.
