I think what you say C&O stretches credulity. Yes, technically it was still Jims regime when Jones was signed. Two months before he died of a chronic illness. An illness that had kept him from speaking to the media for over a year. He had nothing to say about DJ publicly when he was signed. He was a very sick man. Reports have said that Carlie was making the decisions for the last year. You actually think it is totally coincidence that after years of doing things the exact same way, including two straight years of having AR starting (or more appropriately thrown to the wolves), Jim dies (when you are dead it doesn't matter one bit what you thought when you are alive for any of us) and all of a sudden the team sits AR, magically wins the first game of the year in a decade and makes a totally unBallard like deal for a CB but this would have happened under Jim? Maybe one is a coincidence but certainly not all. There is an almost complete change in direction. We will never know but we know that it has happened under Carlie.
