I'm not sure that that would happen, but if it did, it would really sting.

It’s a real possibility. Right now my best case scenario is Ballard and Steichen are gone after this season and the new regime starts AR to see what they have, taking the boom or bust option the team should be taking this year. He shows improvement? Great, there is likely something here, keep working on it. He completely flames out? Great we know he isn’t getting there and we have a higher draft pick to look for his replacement. Even the best case scenario I can see with Jones makes me uncomfortable. He plays decent, team squeaks into the playoffs and has a first round exit. Great! Now what? Sign DJ to a multi year contract? Look for a different veteran option? Give AR a shot? Each one of those prolongs the cycle another year. It’s a continuation of the mediocrity the Ballard philosophy brings. And I’m over it. Giving up my season tickets after the season no matter what happens level of over it.
