If KS is indeed hired, he will have to get the Rams into the post season party no later than his 3rd year if he wants to see a 4th.

I hope it's not that narrowly dogmatic.

Let's say Keenum walks, and BOTH Goff and Mannion combined are healthy for only 27 of the next 64 games.

Do you do the "playoffs or bust" thing if you also like him as a coach? I mean to ME that would be just gratuitously self-destructive.

Or add this. Let's say they hire KS, and he's actually a good coach, but this happens.

As I said, you have healthy viable starting caliber qbs (assuming Mannion is that) for only 27 of the next 64 games.

ADD this. In that same span, you have a relatively healthy, relatively experienced, decent OL in only 20 of those games.

And then let's say the overlap between having the OL and having the starting caliber qb is 15 games.

I wouldn't fire the coach because if that situation keeps up, a new coach is going to make no difference whatsoever.

SO if KS is good, wish him the OL and the qb. Cause. If he's good he can win with that. If he's good, and he doesn't have those 2 things combined, he won';t win.

Unless you can give me examples of coaches who DID win under those conditions. I can't think of any.
