A recent report from Barry Jackson of the Miami Herald, citing an unnamed source close to Payton, floated the Cowboys, Dolphins, and Chargers “among others” as potential destinations for Payton in 2023. The report listed the biggest of Payton’s “several” factors: (1) warm weather; (2) competitive roster; and (3) full control over personnel.

They need to go the Titans blueprint basically.

If a coach ever demands a warm weather city, he's a flaming pussy and shouldn't be trusted.

You're smoking crack.

IIRC he was almost out the door after that SB win.

This is the Greg Penner show now. It’s a new era, and an urgent era. Results are not merely expected, they are DEMANDED.

Paton is basically a GM in name only at this point

My big takeaways from today's presser:

• George Paton is a marginalized man, almost GM in title only. His seat's scorching hot.

• Greg Penner's take-charge, no-BS attitude is what the #Broncos have lacked — and sorely needed — since Mr. B's passing.

Would have thought it would be demanded after trading for a 250 million dollar QB, but whatever

George Piolaton?

[RunKC]

Paton has been completely neutered

We would accept this as acknowledgement that you now agree that Paton and Hackett are absolute buffoons.

Andy Reid isn't walking through the door.

Reports of Paton's demise have been greatly overstated:

“I understand his thought process. He understands the work that needs to be done this offseason. I’m going to rely on him heavily as we go through & make these changes.”

Hackett never figured it out. I think Paton got caught up in looking for the antithesis of Fangio and was intrigued by Hackett. He was trying to hit a homerun on a first time HC and it didn't work out. Kudos to the Broncos for not doubling down on their mistake.

They doubled down on Russ with that extension
