I think A win next week clinches the 5th seed, a win vs the Jets or pats clinches the playoffs, no wins can still get in with a combination of losses by the Browns, Titans, Texans and raiders.

McD's whole coaching philosophy is based on trust, commitment, sticking together and loving who you play with. Leaving mid process would undermine every bit of that and render his whole philosophy worthless. It would be impossible for players to buy in because they know he doesn't practice what he preaches.
