Nice job.

Morton was on our staff in 2022, and he was the guy lobbying to keep Craig Reynolds on Hard Knocks.

“Johnny’s a superstar”

If Coach Dan says that…I’m sold!

Just going to be honest with how I feel…I am not fully whelmed by this. Feels like a good old boys hire to me. But if Dan says he fits I’ll roll with it.

I’m hoping we’ll be able to announce this week rather than in 2 weeks :slight_smile: .

I dunno, he’s a bit chunky.

@QBHATER90 with the inside intel again. When he talks we should all listen.

That’s how I feel. Would have preferred Caley simply bc I’ve heard more about him as a rising star league wide but both Dan and Sean Payton seem to be fans of Morton so I’m keeping an open mind.

I would imagine this means that Morton and Jared have already displayed a good rapport which is a good starting point.

I can see Morton being the link from Ben to Tanner. If the Lions continue to have success Morton ends up getting a HC job and Tanner moves up. Assuming another team doesn’t poach him first.

I’m going to pretend that Morton is an Albino Nigerian. It’s my attempt at compensatory beans cope.

Honestly, I trust Dans opinion if this is the guy. He had him in staff for an entire season, so Dan knows exactly what’s he’s getting. Worst case, I would still be very confident in Dan calling plays, with support from Fraley/Montgomery/Engstrand if Morton just doesn’t cut it.

The passing game looked pretty damn good in a tough division, with modest weapons, and a rookie Qb. I’m sold

Sure. But Sean Payton is quite involved in that passing game.
