A far fetched theory to add to the pile

Does anyone think it’s possible JR already told Ron and co. that they’re gone after the season and the new GM is going to pick his own coach? I know others have observed it looks like Ron is mailing in this season, could this be why?  I don’t actually believe this to be the case for the record, but I do believe it’s within the realm of possibility.

It would be conceivable if there was an actual GM search going on.

I'd like to think that Ron would be playing with a little more guts and urgency if that was case...since his next job would be dependent on his performance this season.  

Didn’t work that way for John Fox. Like I said, I don’t believe this, but it wouldn’t surprise me.

There is nothing wrong with Ron's defense. There is something wrong on offense. Losing Greg was huge but there is no excuse for the play design and blocking schemes.

Ron needs to man up and find himself a new OC. This season is what it is. Maybe some guys grow up and we get other guys back or replaced.

I'm not shooting you down for proposing a theory but that doesn't sound like JR at all. Hell he wouldn't even fire Fox mid season when EVERYONE knew Fox was a lame duck coach and wasn't getting reupped. 

JR is a businessman first remember

    • Yeah but at least that QB would be not short.  I keep going back to the fact other than Wilson no other short QB has ever won a Super Bowl. The success rate of short QBs is very, very low. Like count on one hand low.  Yeah some people would include Brees too but I don’t consider a 6 foot tall QB short, imo. 
    • I just rewatched all the highlights from after Bryce being benched. The Bryce hate needs to calm down a little bit. He showed a ton of potential the back half of the year. Same with Legette. They both made great plays when it mattered and a few mistakes when it counted. If we didn’t have a historically awful defense last year we could have ended even a bit better. Going into a brand new season we should be optimistic at least before game one. 2015 no one expected to go anywhere and the team steam rolled the league. I’m not saying that will happen, but hopefully we made strides to improve on the end of last year. Bryce put both Super Bowl teams in a battle last year and if we had a better D we could have taken them both. So at least look forward to the season and not past the season until it at least begins. 
    • I’m not mad at Moehrig.  He’s great at what he does.  And to be honest, a lot of my favorite safeties in our history were box-first type guys - Maxie, Minter, Mike Mitchell, Chris Harris…  they’re first and foremost objective was to put people on their backs and coverage was secondary.  There is a place for that.  There is a definite need for that.  Physical guys that set the tone.  So cool, we have that in Moerhig. But what we have lacked for the vast majority of our existence is a true free safety that cleans everything up on the back end.  Sometimes they come in the form of a JOAT, like Peppers.  I think he would be a fantastic compliment to Moehrig’s strengths and weaknesses.  If we don’t go after him, I certainly hope Ransom is given the chance to grow and develop in real-time with real game reps, because what he did in preseason was very encouraging to see.  I hope he can grow into that roaming center fielder with a little bit of an edge to him as an enforcer as well.  He has the tools.  In the meantime, adding Peppers would only help.
