I was thinking....
Even if Carl is not on the hot seat with Clark, is he not on the hot seat around KC? Imagine what it must be like for him. He is a hated public figure. And I doubt his ego can handle that very well.
So...if you are Carl, and you want to placate the fans for awhile, and shift focus away from your own failures, what can you do? Throw Herm under the bus. My guess is that Carl realizes he has to shake things up a little, and the question is whether firing Solari will be enough to buy Carl some time. Herm probably won't be shit-canned, but I think the chances are higher than a lot of people think -- It's not that much of a long-shot. Gun only got two years, and we were never at these depths under Gun.
