There are a number of areas that can be questioned - selling the house for RG3 (I'm still in favor of this), passing on the chance to draft J.J. Watt or Robert Quinn in the 2011 draft (booooo!!!), etc. For me, the one decision I questioned from the beginning was ditching the 4-3, a perennial top-10 defense, and wasting resources building a 3-4 that would have been much better served bolstering the O-line and speed at WR. Shanahan knows exactly one thing about defense - he is clueless when it comes to building a good one. He broke the one part of the team that didn't need fixing when he arrived. What decision gives you the most heartburn with this broken team?
