Happy Wednesday and happy February, everyone! Whew, January went out with quite the bang in the sports world. Before we get to the regularly scheduled programming, I have some breaking news to cover, and it's a big one: this morning in a video shared on his social media accounts. His seven Super Bowls are the most all-time, as are his five Super Bowl MVP awards. Brady Louis King Jersey has also thrown more completions, pa sing yards, and touchdowns than any other quarterback in NFL history.If this sounds familiar, it's because today, Feb. 1, is exactly one year to the day that Brady announced his first retirement. Last time, his retirement lasted 40 days. According to the video he shared this morning, he's for real this time."Thank you guys for allowing me to live my absolute dream. I wouldn't change a thing," . OK, now let's get back to the rest of the news.THE DENVER BRONCOS...Sean Payton is back in the NFL, and it cost the a pretty penny. with the . Here are the details:Broncos get: HC Sean Payton, 2024 third-round pickSaints get: 2023 first-round pick (No. 29 overall), 2024 second-round pickPayton's biggest responsibility is fixing after the quarterback's disastrous Denver debut season that leftNathaniel Hackett. On paper, it's a great move for Denver:Payton owns a 152-89 career record and made the playoffs nine of his 15 seasons.He won the Super Bowl in the 2009 season.His Saints led the league in total offense six times.In reality, it'll be an interesting transition. During Payton's time with the Saints (2006-11, 2013-21), they posted the fewest yards downfield per throw in a system predicated on Drew Brees' accurate, on-schedule pa sing. Wilson is not that style of quarterback. He's at his best out of structure, and taking shots downfield. That's not to say they work. It's just worth keeping an eye on. Credit the Broncos for pushing the envelope with their win-now roster. Also credit them for moving to add the first-round pick they're now sending to New Orleans. And lastly, credit the Saints for getting significant draft capital for their former coach. ...

Houston's last two coaches -- David Culley and Lovie Smith -- were one-and-done fillers put in an impo sible position. Ryans, it seems, will have the leeway needed to actually build something. That starts with quarterback. The Texans own the No. 2 pick in the draft, and all four of our draft experts have them selecting Alabama star Bryce Young in . It's that leeway and flexibility that likely attracted Ryans to this job.He'll have a clean slate at quarterback (unlike the Broncos, another team that pursued him heavily).He inherits a team that has some pieces.
