It seemed obvious from the 1st Qtr that Wentz was completely lost.

My point being the counter argument to those who said, not on here, that Ron doesn't need to know the implications of other games, that the situation dictated a shorter leash fo Wentz

I almost fell out of my chair when Ron got a confused look on his face and said "We can be eliminated?" That comment makes me call into question every decision made up to and including during the game.

That said, Ron is a dinosaur and slow to change/adapt so even had he known I doubt he'd have done anything differently.
