Another interesting thing to note is that if Payton becomes available next year and we want to go after him we shouldn't have much competition.
Teams with 1st or 2nd year coaches in 2016 and are basically safe: Eagles, Giants, Bears, Lions presumably, Bucs, Falcons, 49ers, Bills, Jets, Dolphins, Browns, Titans, Raiders, Broncos
Then you know the Patriots, Packers, Vikings, Steelers, Seahawks, Cardinals, Ravens, Chiefs, Panthers and probably the Redskins won't fire their coaches. Baltimore is the only realistic possibility there and I'd be happy to take Harbaugh if he were fired.
That leaves the Chargers, Jaguars, Texans, Bengals, Rams and Colts left as potential challengers for Payton, with the Chargers and Colts probably being the only real threats.
