He could quit but that would undermine any plans he has of continuing a coaching career, although I don't think any team would touch him after his finishes in Philly and here. Or he's just biding his time to either get fired or finish out the season for a guaranteed payout portion of his contract. My gut tells me it's the latter. He's going to lose his job anyway. Might as well ride it out and capitalize on the financial side.

I can’t imagine he’d resign and potentially give up any remaining contract. Shad needs to nut up and can him. Baalke should go at the same time.

I meant that as well but didn't state it. I can't blame the guy for staying the course for financial gain. We're talking hundreds of thousands, if not millions of dollars. 

If I were Khan, I would can Baalke now and see how Doug reacts. If suddenly there is spring in his step and we start winning, the solution may have been easier than expected. Admittedly, that's rooted in wishful thinking. The only realistic outcome to turn this team around is to fire everyone down to the equipment manager and start anew.
