That means they felt that AR was good enough that they could work with him and build a quality offense around him. That involves the scouting of the GM and his scouting team and the player development of the Head Coach and his offensive staff. So if AR isn't the guy, then the front office has shown they can't find the QB, and the coaching staff has shown they can't develop the QB, so all of them, including the QB, would need to be replaced.

Yeah, the feeling I got from the article is that Irsay sees QB, GM and Coach as a package deal and that he was willing to give them a little more rope in hopes that they don’t use it to hang themselves.
