#2 Sean Payton
Right behind him, we have one of the OGs when it comes to play-designer and game-planners. Sean Payton is best known for the way he can motivate his troops and how fired up he gets during games, but he deserves all the credit in the world for the preparation he puts into every game and what kind of a tough team he has built around him.
Drew Brees has been amazing throughout his career, but a lot that success has to go to his coach to some degree. Payton is the best at creating lay-ups to his number one receivers in the short to intermediate range, which is a big reason why Michael Thomas is on pace to break the NFL’s all-time records for reception in a season.
In addition to that. his team has finished fifth and sixth respectively in rushing offense these last two year and his screen game might be the best in the game as well. He doesn’t care if people know he is stealing either, like those goal-line screens with a receiving motioning into a bunch set and how he countered that with a fake and corner route off it to beat the Eagles with their own medicine last year in a genius move.
The Saints are now 7-1 despite being without the league’s all-time leading passer for most of it and Alvin Kamara missing a couple of games himself.
