I didn’t bother trying to read the write up because of the paywall block, but the negative atmosphere surrounding Loomis is legit and way past due. Now that some of the smoke has cleared since Brees retired and Payton left, it seems to me to be pretty obvious that Loomis lucked up when he signed Payton. The blind squirrel finding a nut. And Payton, probably a coach that falls in the 8-12 range of head coaches, lucked up when Miami decided not to sign Brees and he landed in New Orleans.
