If by coaching you mean being unable to turn 3rd string OL into 1st string? Teams historically slip after a championship, and the Rams had a lot of injuries. They used something like 10 different OL configs through the first 10 weeks.

Did I knock Payton? Again, putting words in my mouth. I merely stated that the difference in Brees' performance from SD to NO that first year was largely due to better OL play (fewer sacks, more pass attempts).
My bad, Shoppy....scrolled back. The moron I was debating with was DTFoolsGold.

LOL.

Sean Payton is a really good coach.

But no coach is worth giving up pick 12 overall. Sorry.

Get more creative with your coaching hires and keep that pick.
This.

I think he'd be worth if you're selecting in the 28-30 range, but not if you're in the borderline top 10 range..

Frank Reich would be a good hire for a lot of teams and he wouldn't cost a draft pick.

Not as good as Payton but I don't he's a huge dropoff either.

That would be very stupid of Houston. Sure, they will still get their QB, if they want him, but giving up the 12 for a coach is stupid. Considering they are in full rebuild
Yeah, and Payton would be equally stupid to go there as well unless he was just looking to cash out.

I think the Texans are the new Browns/Lions as the most inept NFL franchise.

Might think about retiring, if not now soon. I mean the guy has already had a ton of concussions. He is risking his future as a human being
He really needs to. And Miami could try and trade for Jackson since he is from the Miami area and would give them an electric offense.

Rams also had a 1st place schedule to deal with, for whatever that's worth. Lost 5 key starters before the season even started. It's a bit more than just games lost to injury, of which the Rams were pretty high this year as well. Rams only lost 3 games to non-playoff teams (AZ, GB, NO), all without Kupp (out early vs AZ) and Stafford.
also beat no one better than 7-10 from among their 5 wins.

No doubt had some bad breaks.....but I'd rather go against the 2022 NFC West and have both stafford and Kupp 9-10 games each than play the 2021 AFC Central with an injured Baker as my QB and, as mentioned, be at or near top in games lost to injury. Still finished 8-9 that year.

Lamar? They need a QB that can pass, an accurate one
Jackson has never had receivers like there are in Miami.

Hollywood was good but in actuality is a really good #2 WR, not a #1. You put Jackson on the Dolphins and they are a better team than with a healthy Tua.

Ironic, since other than wondering how he'd do long term without Brees (which is fair) I never really knocked the guy.

Probably not.

Baltimore has completely built their offense around LJ’s unique skill set.

Miami personnel is a pretty poor fit for that.

what does that make a franchise that finished below them this year? Double secret super inept?
