He seemed burned out, like this collapse frustrated him to the point that he wanted to walk away. It was surprising to hear his comments about the players behavior down the stretch. I think he realized he had lost the room.
I think if they waited a week or two, he may still be managing next year, but this seemed like an emotional decision (perhaps for management and Francona), two days after the season.
