THE ORIGINAL TAKE
“sean payton are playoff locks for the next 5 years”
OPEN THE ORIGINAL POST ↗

What we’re scoring

The December 31, 2024 source says next five years without fixing the first season. Preserve that wording; the window could include the upcoming 2024 postseason or start with the 2025 season. The 2030 deadline is only an outer review checkpoint, not an authored deadline. Buffalo losing the 2025 division and Kansas City missing the 2025 playoffs falsify either window; Harbaugh and Payton remain pending.

The ruling

Denver clinched a 2025 playoff berth. Future seasons within the stated five-year window remain uncompleted.
