What advantages are there to firing RR quickly?

[Sgt Schultz]

It is a dilemma.  There is only one advantage to firing him early: getting the inevitable over with.  There is no great disadvantage to parting company before the holiday rush, either.

I guess some team that is a dumpster fire and is looking for a coach to bring stability could get in touch with him and get things rolling.

Our problem is not stability, it is that we are so stable that inertia has set in.  Or maybe it is rigor mortis.

I know everyone wants Ron gone but what advantages are really gained by doing it quickly? 

It’s not like we are going to hire his replacement anytime soon.

Who would be the interim coach? Turner?

What if he goes on a winning streak and the players start to campaign to keep him? 
 

What’s  our best chance for good draft picks? 
 

Ddon’t get me wrong, I’m ready for a change also.  I’m just not sure there are real advantages to making a move now as opposed to the end of the season.

None.

It would send a message to the fans, players and entire organization that actions are being taken to pursue success. Rather than wallow in the misery of mediocrity. Is it guaranteed those actions produce the intended results? Who knows. What we do know, without question, is where we find ourselves today as an organization is not where we want to be.

Try Scott Turner out as Interim and see if there’s anything there.

You dirty, dirty man.

Once we’re mathematically eliminated what reason will there be to keep him? Hell you’re doing him a favor by firing him early. Let’s stop with the “it’s disrespectful” to the coach narrative. We haven’t given a damn about the players even when one of the best players in franchise history was shown the door y’all didn’t care about the disrespect. He still gets paid. His family won’t be hungry or starving. You don’t perform you get fired. That’s how the world works. fug his feelings and if anything it sends a message to future coaches that if you come here you better come to win. 
 

The Rams fired Fisher in the middle of the season, who was a well respected coach around the league similar to Rivera and still got Sean Mcvay 

The Bills fired Rex Ryan mid season. How’d that turn out for them? 
 

The Eagles fires Chip Kelly with one game left to go in the season and then won a Super Bowl. 
 

So let’s stop that silly stupid narrative please. 

[jtm]

I’m not as convinced as everyone here that Ron will be fired. I think Hurney is definitely gone.
