Could this just be Ron auditioning for his next job elsewhere as a DC?

Anyone think it's possible that Tepper already told Rivera he'll be fired after the season, and now the changes today are just Ron trying to prove himself as a defensive play caller again so he's highly sought after in the offseason? Not sure I believe it but it was an interesting thought that crossed my mind,

If Rivera is fired, he'll likely get a shot at HC once more, so I doubt that he's auditioning for a demotion. 

Not so sure about right away. I bet more along the lines of Kubiak after the Texans fired him and he got the Broncos job after a stint as OC. Especially in this day of coaching where most teams are looking for young, promising offensive minds...

It's entirely possible. I think Ron sees the writing on the wall.

I just think he’s been slow to change until the season is now done for.

he should have made that change after Pittsburgh.

i mean had we won the 3 games since Pitt and came in 9-3 instead of 6-5 and then had this game with 4 ints, we probably still pull it out at 10-3 but if we don’t we 9-4, season still a maybe.

him waiting put us out.

I think that teams are just looking for coaches that can win. Sean McVay is an anomaly. 

Of course this doesn't mean teams don't want "young, promising offensive minds," but I'm not so sold quite yet that most of these owners want to make them head coaches without some legit experience.

    • Reasonable. I mean I didn’t see a clear path to relief this season myself. As I have typed already, I think the QB FA class is more interesting next season and that draft is supposed to be stacked as well. There just weren’t many options this year.  When you have Tepper to contend with you have to tread lightly around this unless you are 100% certain and willIng to stake your job on it.   There were a couple of outings that helped Bryce a lot in terms of  thinking maybe he can do this, and if you are a supporter you are giving them a lot of weight. You are likely to think just get him some more help and he can do that every week. Which I think Tepper falls into that category.  And the playoffs, division champs, regardless of the way I see that, the supporters will also give that a lot of weight.    And the big one, the atmosphere In BOA for that WC game, Tepper had to be soiling himself over that. If you pulled Bryce out right now you had better be right and your new guy had better make the playoffs and look good doing it or you will be gone and your chance to build your old team back into respectability will be gone too.  So here we have Pickett on a one year deal, and Grier and King. I understand it.  
    • Well, seeing as we play the Lions at home this year, pretty sure that rumor isn't true.
    • Totally possible imo, I also caught that snippet from Morgan where he said “If” we sign him. The lack of competition says otherwise tho 🤷‍♂️
