Ryan Clark Calls Sean Payton a Thug

I thought the real good coaches cater the scheme to the PLAYERS, not make players FIT what the coach wants to do Sean.

Which is it, objectively?

Objectively, Rouxble explained it perfectly

I’m one who thinks scheme is at times overrated, especially when a team has question marks at OL and QB.

That said, for any given game, you have to game plan around who you have.

Going into the offseason, you’ll probably look for the players that fit what you really want to do.

The Wilson move falls into the second category, Payton would rather open his full playbook with someone who can run it rather than continuing to run a simplified version of it that hasn’t been consistently successful.

While I'm one who believes that a QB can't succeed in a bad scheme, we ultimately come down to the same conclusion.

Going through this entire season, it looks like the playbook is still limited. Russ' biggest 2 biggest assets were always his feet and the off schedule plays. They said years ago that Russ no longer wanted to be a part of the run game and wanted to be seen primarily as a passer like Drew, Brady, and Manning. If people don't see that his limitations as a QB is scaling down the playbook, I don't know what to tell them.
