4) Hired your current HC
I don't know what he would have to do to get fired, but I can't imagine a more damning list.

Went to 2 SB's and won one with an historic D and a QB who set the record Pat is chasing, and further behind.
Kubes getting sick threw a wrench in everything. John also has to deal with Pat's terminal illness and ownership issues.
Drafting QB's in the 1st round is a crap shoot. You guys don't know just how lucky you got. You act like it can be done every year by any team. On a good year there is maybe one or 2 guys tops who will be above average QB's for the long term.
John had already paid Case to start for 2 years and being at 5 staying put and drafting Chubb was the right move, he is doing well, at some point they will need to replace Von, having Chubb around will make that easier.
They clearly have to move up to get a guy this year, not sure who is out there but with all the teams taking QB's last year it is really the Broncos and Giants who are in the running for QB's. He just cannot afford to wiff like he did with Lynch. There could also be a Vet available out there after the season is over they could swing a trade for.
They will have a ton of cap space next year. Bunch of old guys will be gone, Marshall, Stewart, DT. Hitting on guys like Chubb, Sutton, Jewell, Freeman, Hamilton, and even Yidom was huge, 4 of those guys are starting. That doesn't even cound Lindsay who he got off the street. One more draft close to that and with new coaching and they will be fine. Wouldn't mind him bringing in Toub, he deserves a shot after all those great years of coaching in Chicago and in kFc.
Good luck man.
