Pretty interesting article.
He talks to Benson, who admits he was doubtful about Payton at first.
King says Loomis is a big favorite for Executive of the Year. Pretty funny because we were all very critical of him as a "bean counter" in past years.
I think part of the problem is that he gave Haslett to much of a say in things. It looks like with Payton's better sense of personnel this is a great partnership.
