I do think a decent year this year at 10+ wins or at the very least the team shows clear signs of improvement should get him a stay of execution.
Something I'd really like to see this team do is not play down to the level of competition and certainly not shit the bed against really bad teams (@Jagoffs and NYG last year).

At this point, it all comes down to one question: Can they make AR into a franchise QB? And it seems like they've found a way to buy another year of time to answer that question. Ballard has effectively adopted Dorsey's model 2 years late, with his hope being that Janiel Dones can play the part of Alex Smith. For our sakes, I hope it works, because I'm tired of watching bad football and not dominating this shit division.
