Dumbass made fun of the Chiefs draft picks when they were unambiguously better than the donx. Not sure anyone should ever care what Goodwill taqo says.

Wait, who actually cares about his opinions here? He's jolly good fun to dunk on for being a troll dumb enough to show that he gets irritated when you troll him back but has anyone actually carried a serious Football conversation with him?

That’s impossible

[BryanBusby]

That dumbass franchise is going to get suckered into giving up two firsts and cash to land a coach that's addicted to pain killers.

From Klis:

Sean Payton impressive in head coach interview Tuesday with Broncos

Spoiler!

After their 2-hour or so interview Tuesday, it became clear from both the Broncos and Sean Payton that there is sincere mutual interest in each other, sources tell 9NEWS.

Not that an announcement is coming in the next few days. According to a source, there most likely will be a second step in the Broncos’ head coach search process, with one to three finalists expected to be brought into the team’s UCHealth Training Center headquarters next week for one more healthy discussion before a final determination is made.

...

From there, Penner and his associates will pause to consider who to bring in for a second interview next week. The second round of interviews will involve Penner, his wife and co-owner Carrie Penner Walton, and Broncos controlling owner Rob Walton. George Paton will be around for follow-up discussions and to help the coaching finalists tour the Broncos’ facilities.

Contrary to some media speculation, George Paton is returning as the Broncos’ general manager, regardless of who Penner ultimately decides to hire as head coach. Remember, even if Sean Payton asks for final-say authority on roster decisions – as would be his right given his gravitas and resume – he had a productive and professional partnership with Saints’ GM Mickey Loomis that worked well for 15 years.

Although there has been speculation that Payton would command a $15-$20 million a year salary if he returns to coach, he and the Broncos did not talk compensation during their interview Tuesday, according to a source. The Broncos also have not engaged in trade talks with New Orleans on compensation for Sean Payton, although they are aware of the Saints’ asking price which reportedly is a first-round draft pick.

Pretty sure Andy Reid's interview was well over 8 hours(normal). Elway is coaching next season

Geezus, your team is more doomed if they execute that.

If he were "the guy" and he liked what he saw, the walnuts wouldn't have let him leave without a contract

There are conflicting reports on how long the interview was. Colin Cowherd spoke to Payton last night and Cowherd said Payton met with the Broncos for 4 or 5 hours.

Woody Paige said they met for "several hours."

The Penner-Payton Process was extremely productive in Los Angeles for several hours Tuesday, and the Broncos will continue negotiations with Don Yee, Payton’s agent. Meanwhile, Payton interviews with others, but not the Rams, the Chargers, the Dolphins, the Cowboys and the Saints.

Sean Payton left impressed by #Broncos ownership group. It’s why some think it’s Broncos or FOX for Payton. But two interviews left with Ryans on Thursday night and Quinn on Friday. Then should have finalists and head into home stretch. #Denver7 https://t.co/GCjJX8QSfO

The job he actually wanted didn't open up for him. Might as well use the Broncos interest as leverage to get more $$$ from FOX.
