MIAMI — Contrary to what you’ll be hearing for the next few years, Sean Payton isn’t that smart. If he were, he would have waited a little longer before dropping a bomb on his kicker.
“Hey, we’re running it,” he told Thomas Morstead.
It was the Onside Kick Heard ‘Round The World. The only thing wrong with the call was that there were still 20 minutes left in halftime.
“I wish he’d told me at the end,” Morstead said.
Instead, Morstead had an entire performance by The Who to get nervous. But like almost everything else Payton did Sunday night, it worked to near perfection.
