Everyone is saying the kid’s got “it”, so Jerry thinks he COULD have his own in house McVay. By not extending Garrett, it sends the message that he’s coaching for his job, as well as telling Kellen “Here’s your shot!”
Depending on how 2019 goes, they have multiple options:
1)Extend Garrett and keep Moore at OC.
2)Fire Garrett, bring in an outside replacement, and keep Moore at OC.
3)Jettison JG, promote Moore to HC, and bring in a new OC.
4)Fire Garrett, promote Richard to HC, keep Moore at OC, and change DC.
