Payton interested in '23 NFL return for 'right' job
Sean Payton says he's interested in returning to the NFL as a head coach in 2023 if the "right situation" presents itself.
www.espn.com
Sean Payton is looking to return next year if the right circumstances arise. His main concern is having the right ownership.
Sean Payton is 58 and Belicheck is 70 this year.
Anyone thinking that Belicheck can be elite coach into his 70s is doing so without any evidence as decades of evidence shows that 70 is the wall for professional coaching.
Greg Poppovich is one GOAT BB coaches and he 20 years straight with a winning record. Since turning 70 he has had 3 straight losing seasons in a row.
Romeo Crennel broke the record for oldest NFL HC at 73. Before that George Halas held the record at 72.
To be clear, this thread is not at all a hit or smear piece against Belicheck, his legacy is cemented.
This is about who is best for the Patriots going forward.
A 71 year old HC next year when history proves that being a successful HC in the NFL at 70+ years has never been done before.
Sean Payton has been my favorite HC outside of Belicheck, and I think he is the perfect fit starting next year.
Mac Jones reminds me of Drew Brees, not a powerful arm, but smart and accurate. I think Payton would be the perfect mentor for Mac to tale his game to the next level.
What are everyone's thoughts on how Payton would look at HC with the Pats?
