Quote:In the case he gets fired, which is unlikely, Jacksonville will be at the end of a long line of teams wanting to hire him.  

 

Money talks to NFL coaches, especially if they think the QB is legit.  If BB5 continues to progress, I think we'd be an attractive place to land in terms of personell.

 

But it's really up to Shad to open up his wallet.  He needs to get a top tier coach in here.  No more of this discount coaching staff garbage.  You want to be considered a top tier team, bring in top tier coaches.  That's just the bottom line.  

 

Quote:Yeah but Payton im sure will want to work with a good young QB and hopefully he feels Bortles can be that.  On top of the no state tax I think we will have as good a shot as any

 

Exactly.  10 million a year if it has to be done.  Don't care.  If you're gonna spend money on the score boards, spend the money to get something worth showing up there.  These rookie coaches or failed retreads don't cut it anymore.  It's clear we need better leadership to get us past this funk.

 

Quote:Peyton isn't going anywhere. Like Brees, Peyton is the best New Orleans has had or will ever have. He'll retire a Saint or leave on his own accord.

 

I don't know about that...  Sometimes a change is just needed...  Heck, if Coughlin can't turn it around this year, the Giants might cut bait on him, and he's won 2 SBs for the Giants...
