Maybe Russ will post something on IG or talk to the media about how he "Looked at the film, did the work, examined the details..." and now he knows how to fix his issues. Russ will probably go to a secret bunker with 5-head and some throwing coach and stay there for a month and come out of it proclaiming to be a brand new player. The Donk media will take that cheese and write about how Russ is "talking differently... looking like he has more energy... exuding more confidence than he ever has... getting everybody to buy in and go on a mission this year..." when OTAs roll around.
But that's the problem. That's about the only move he has for next year. What else is he supposed to say? "The defense is totally ferocious!" "Random midround 1st/2nd year player is a future all-pro!" I mean, yeah, those are the old classics, and he'll probably keep churning those out, but those cards were always played when he had the benefit of a brand new solution at QB every single year. Russ is a carry-over who will be here every season. There aren't any magical pipedreams that Knowmo can spin because he can point to something and go, "It's different, therefore it will be better."

If they fire Hackett then he can take all of the blame, and the new guy will be the one with all the answers. It's the rinse-repeat cycle they'll be on for the next half a decade.
