Sean Payton on Dallas rumors: I’ve got fleur-de-lis tattoos

Great head coach doesn't always translate to great assistants

Former Patriots assistants' head coaching records are not good

Charlie Weiss: 41-49 (College)
Romeo Crennel: 28-55
Eric Mangini: 33-47
Josh McDaniels: 11-17
Bill O’Brien: 31-34
Matt Patricia: 0-1

Teams were jumping up and down to find the next Sean McVay interviewing young guys and people from McVay's coaching staff, but Carmichael has been here for years I would think he has a lot more experience than guys like Matt LeFluer and that young guy that the Bengals hired.

I would've thought by now that there would be members of Payton's coaching staff getting jobs elsewhere.

From what most folks see outside looking in when it comes to the Saints offense - Who calls the plays?

I look at Sean Payton as a guy that began his head coaching career as trying to make a splash, trying to end up at the big franchise, dominate the league... make all kinds of money etc. I think New Orleans gave him something that he never really knew he even wanted: a family and a home. I believe he really does bleed black and gold.

There are Saints assistants who get interviews, quite frequently, but I personally think a lot of the outside interest in our assistant coaches kinda died down after the year when Coach Payton was suspended for the whole season and we sucked so bad. I mean in that situation it was really obvious for everyone to see.
