Sean Payton appears to be eyeing three teams for a possible 2023 return, plus Bengals announce a new helmet

Welcome to the Thursday edition of the Pick Six newsletter!

I’ll be honest, the only reason I got out of bed today is because I thought the Bengals were going to be unveiling a new helmet with white tiger stripes. Now, I don’t even know why I got out of bed because they didn’t unveil a new helmet. 

In the weirdest helmet announcement ever, they announced that they would be wearing an alternate helmet in 2022, BUT THEY DIDN’T SHARE ANY PICTURES OF THE HELMET. The goods news for you guys is that I found a nice mock-up of what the helmet will probably look like, and you’ll be able to check that out later on in the newsletter. We also have some Sean Payton news, plus we’ll be taking a look at the best defensive players under the age of 25. 

As always, here’s your weekly reminder to tell all your friends to sign up for the newsletter. All you have to do is click here and then share the link. Let’s get to the rundown.

6. Sean McDermott, Bills 
7. Matt LaFleur, Packers
8. Pete Carroll, Seahawks
9. Kyle Shanahan, 49ers
10. Mike Vrabel, Titans

The first thing you’ll probably notice is that the coach with the most Super Bowl wins in NFL history (Bill Belichick) isn’t at the top of the list. According to Cody, that’s because this ranking isn’t a lifetime achievement award; it’s based on who you’d want to coach your team in 2022. 

“We’re not debating if he’s ranked at the top based on all-time achievements,” Benjamin said. “As much as I respect Bill Belichick and what he’s done all-time, I don’t think he’s the best guy to draft as your coach in 2022.”
