Yeah, from my perspective the benefits of keeping Ron and Jack until the end of the season are diminishing rapidly, and the new owners have to have one eye on maximising the boost to the fanbase that the sale ignited. 12 more weeks like this and they could be back to half empty stadiums

Re: Fire Ron Rivera Now - Post Game Thread
 

Have none of the beat guys challenged Ron on making his nephew the LB coach? I wasn't even aware of this until now but if I was the new owner this would be a day 1 issue. For all his protestations about wanting to win Ron sure does a lot of favours to friends and family, I am convinced the only reason Scott Turner got the OC job, and kept it way longer than he should, was a favour to his buddy Norv.

Concur. Currently, the staff are bordering on lame duck status. The next four games are extremely crucial for the staff IMO.

They shouldn't get twelve more weeks if they flub it up the next four games.

They have definitely hit their sell by date

Re: Fire Ron Rivera Now - Post Game Thread
 

I want coaching changes as much as everyone else but unless Josh is completely sold on EB being next head coach, he still has to find a GM and whatever head coach takes over they’ll want their own assistants and that all takes time. Just not sure how much immediate success can be expected by firing everyone at this stage of the season. That said, I hope fires every MF’er before sundown lol.

It's not about having immediate success imo, it's about not having to look at that stupid fucking look on Rivera's face anymore.

JDR is also doing as an amazing job as possible of doing less w/ more. No way our defense is this bad with a DC from this century.

If fired, just give the interim job to the guy w/ the most seniority on the staff with the clear message this is just interim. It would still be a nice raise for the rest of the year, so i'm sure that person would take it.

Rivera be on the sidelines during games like:

With the #Commanders coming off a 40-20 loss last week to the #Bears on TNF, I'm told as of today*, managing partner Josh Harris' perspective is to continue to allow things to play out when it comes to potential staff decisions, at this time, per source. Harris is a seasoned sports owner who is viewed internally as generally patient. I'm told one of Harris' biggest concerns now though is the impact an emotional national loss may have on ticket sales--which always has to be taken into account too. Separately, when it comes to any decisions on defensive coordinator, there's an internal impression that Ron Rivera would prefer to allow things to play out. Rivera's relationship with Del Rio goes back a while as well. A natural choice to potentially look to in the past, Chris Harris (the Commanders DB coach from 2020-2022), is now the #Titans DPGC and CB coach which factors into the equation moving forward as well. My understanding overall is that Harris does welcome consul from other owners and also understands that early searches can be beneficial if he elects to go that route, but moves like that customarily* occur closer to the beginning of the coaching carousel. Now, while I'm told some of the other limited partners have their own thoughts--and you can read between the lines there-- we'll see how things settle as the season evolves. There is still time for better results, but the clock is ticking.

Magic wants those fuckers fired yesterday.

You took the words right outta my mouth. Magic Johnson is a winner through and through, as well as a businessman. I suspect he's not gonna tolerate this BS much longer, and probably was ready to pull the plug after last Thursday's debacle.

The next two to four weeks is imperative for this staff.

Lol oh Ron a wordsmith he will never be.

Re: Fire Ron Rivera Now - Post Game Thread
 

Writing is on the wall, shits clear as day as RR and JDR keep stealing money from the franchise. If Harris is to blind to see it I hope he gets his fucking eyes checked soon if this disgrace keeps up.

Obviously from a pragmatic perspective you are correct, but in many ways that is one of the principle failures of Ron and Jack, there is not a single assistant/position coach on defense who is capable of taking over, even temporarily, which means JDR has no one to lean on in terms of fixing what is wrong. It is completely on JDR because of the friends and family coaching staff policy they have. You cant bring in a new DC from outside without blowing up the whole scheme mid season. Personally, I would look at alternatives/additions/assistants to position coaches, bring in some coaches who they know can teach good fundamentals. Hell, London Fletcher is already working for the team, I would guess he knows a hell of a lot more about playing LB than Rons nephew
