I think if one them gets fired both of them do and vice versa. They're a package deal IMO. I tend to lean in your direction though that they're both here to stay but there will be some splash moves made to create some excitement. 

 

I agree with both of your sentiments that it's likely both stay and to quiet the anger from fans over both how I see the season ending and they're staying - that we're likely to see some splash moves.

 

Where I disagree though is the idea that they're a package deal. I could easily see a scenario where Beane lets McDermott go. 

 

There was even a conversation on the Jeremy White, Joe Marino, Jerry Ostrowski show that discussed what they perceived as a possible rift between the two. 

 

I think if Beane felt that either a.) McDermott wasn't getting the most out of what he was giving him or b.) That he could keep his job at the cost of McDermott - he'd pull the trigger. 

 

If Beane goes, McDermott will surely go as a new GM would want to bring in their own guy. But I don't think Beane would willingly go down with the ship if he could avoid it. I don't think the bond is so tight that he'd willingly go to the unemployment line if he didn't have to.
