Sean Payton is showing how fast you can turn teams around

I mean, he obviously thinks CSP helped him become a better kicker, there's nothing wrong with that.....

I thought it was a huge risk at the time to go with Grupe but it has worked out so far (one of the very few things that did during the DA era)....he got off to a shaky start but has improved since his 1st year, much like Lutz.....

He wasn’t a “better” kicker in 2020, though - statistically the worst of his then five year career up to that point. Then the next two seasons of being hurt and then being unreliable happened. It was a three season stretch of wondering what we actually had with Lutz anymore. Too bad it didn’t work out differently.

If he benefits directly from kicking for Payton, then he’s where he needs to be.
