Quote:Apparently Dave Caldwell's message board username is Vino

true...

but seriously, a loss today would be a seriously big nail in a coffin that is running out of room for more nails. Would it be the 'final nail'? That's  hard to say; I'm inclined to think that while it might persuasively be argued that it should be, that I think Dave is going to give Gus as much rope as he can until Khan intervenes and pulls that plug.

 

For my part, I've never liked Gus Bradley's 'style', but... pulling the plug on a HC isn't something to be done lightly. The negative ramifications for the team are profound unless we already have someone in mind with the right combination of grit, charm and intelligence to replace him. If such a creature isn't on the radar scope, then it would be unwise to part company with a known entity like Gus.

 

If on the other hand the Jags win (close, ugly, lucky... doesn't matter) I can see an argument for keeping Gus around... at least until we can't even reach 6-10. 

 

Lets hope for a win. Go Jags!
