Why don't we make mid-season coaching changes?

But others do? Will this continue with Tepper? 

Cause if so, I do see it being a problem especially when it's warranted. Never forget Ravens fired their OC and went on to win the SB. Why does this organization wait until the building burns down to make changes?

It all honesty it'll be wrong to fire Washington because he shouldn't even be our DC. You mean to tell me nobody up top can force Ron to take over the defense, let Washington go back to the DL for the rest of the year? They're just going to allow this to continue? If the standard up top not set, it's not going to trickle down

Other than that one example, usually when you fire a coach or coaches midseason, the season is lost. While we pretty much believe the season has now been lost, there is a glimpse of possibility they can right the ship. But firing someone would pretty much be sinking the ship. Also, who do we replace Washington with at DC?

I’m guessing (hoping) Tepper is more of a scorch and salt the earth kind of guy and will likely clean slate with his franchise at season’s end. 

It’d be nice of Tepper to send a message, but like you pointed out, Washington is another of Ron’s poor decisions bearing no  fruit and with Norv being a first time OC the likeliest of candidates who should be fired is Rivera.

Just an unfortunate mess all around

Most teams won’t fire a coach if they’re mathematically still in playoff contention, it makes no sense to. 

Why Ron doesn’t take the playbook from Eric is a mystery to me. He has to know his job is on the line but refuses to take over the defense. Maybe he knows there’s no fixing it and will make himself look worse by calling the plays.

The increase in blitzing against the Seahawks make me think Rivera at least had a hand in the gameplan this week. It was working early on but the Seahawks adjusted, which made those early red zone failures that much more painful.

We are still above .500 at 6-5 right in the thick of things for a wildcard playoff spot. 

I don't care how sick of your head coach you are, you don't fire them under that situation. 

Mid season firings are for the dumpsterest of fires and teams who have no chance of making a playoff push. 

Like it or not, we're stuck with Ron until the end of the season.

I can live with that.

If we're stuck with him beyond that though, that's when I have issues.

      I don't think it's a homer though when I really feel this team can beat anyone.  The points that can be scored in bunches when the big three are on has high potential.  Moose has effort for days and IMO is the heart of the team.  And didn't see Miles becoming the team "vet" in the starting lineup just roleplaying lol.   We have to limit the turnovers though (Brandon Miller I'm looking at you bud, you are a bad ball handler) and some little things.   Colby off the bench is a cheat code and him and Kaulk have a nice little game going with the picks.    Sion playing every game and just getting better each game.  He has grit.  Grant and Green also grit.  We need replace Tillman with PJ Hall though.  Tillman looks like someone that shouldn't be on an NBA court, or at least with this team, he's just too slow for this tempo.   Even McNeely looked decent tonight and can drive.   If Kaulk and Moose could even be like 30% 3pt shooters man....
