The Rams are such a dumpster fire of a team needing all the help they can get that I can't see them giving up draft picks to get him.

Also his track record on draft picks isn't very good.

They already gave up a ton of draft picks to move up to get Goff. They don't have a lot to work with as is.

Lose Loomis and keep Payton. Loomis is the GM right? Maybe he should accept the responsibility.

If he stays, please get rid of McMahon

The problem I have with the opinion that we are just a defense away from contending again, and therefore Payton isn't the problem, is that much of the problems on defense can be attributed to his unwillingness to part ways with his buddies.

He doesn't hire very well, when he does make changes, but we have that cast of characters who just won't leave, because Payton won't make them.

If that doesn't change, I don't know that the arrow will ever point in the right direction for this organization. I'd like to think that there is enough talent, that if it grows, we will be good. But I can't help but wonder if that growth won't be stunted by our coaching staff, because that has been their reputation on the defensive side of the ball.

I know everyone wants to know who would replace Sean if he ever left or got fired, and I don't know the answer. I know some names I'd go after, but I don't know what the Saints will actually do. All I know is what I've been opining on for some time, and that is that if Sean won't budge on this stale coaching staff, I don't see how we benefit from continuing to sit around on the memories of yesteryear.

If I had a nickel for every time I heard that, the NFL would fine and suspend me.
