You also cannot stand for "just good enough" in the NFL. You have to keep striving for better.
I am undecided as to if Ballard and SS need to go; the first half of the season showed that they have a winning team on their hands....when everything is going for them.
But, I agree that the Sauce trade and Rivers signings are SO FAR OUTSIDE THE BALLARD NORM that they indicate a desperation in team management that we have not seen before.
It will not surprise me to see them fired if we miss the playoffs. It will not surprise me to see them back next year.
What I do know, however, is that CIG is going to be very interested in how her (and her sisters) team is working day in and day out and will have a finger on the pulse like almost no other owner does.
And I hope that will great for us in the long run.

Well this also is my hope for the team. It will be fascinating to see how she and her sisters handle this whole thing. From what we read she was all in on Sauce. This will be a very telling offseason. So just watch Rivers lead us into an improbable run and throw everything into a scramble
