How do you know they weren't privately putting pressure on him to resign? They couldn't do it publicly if they didn't think they would succeed. Doing so would give him zero chance to win, and it is inevitably his call alone.

I don't know that there was a home run candidate that would win for sure. Any of the favorites have electability problems.
