"Stay medium." Isn't that the philosphy of arguably the worst coach in our franchise's history?

Shanahan failed in Denver for two primary reasons:

1) He had final say over personnel and Denver repeatedly made poor personnel decisions
2) He picked poor defensive coordinators

Shanahan's been here a week and we know two things about him.

1) he has final say over personnel
2) He picked a poor defensive coordinator

Taking a "wait and see" approach and expecting to see different results is like watching a child, who has repeatedly put his hand on a hot stovetop, reach for that hot stove stop top again and taking a "wait and see approach" to see if he gets burned. Doing the same thing over and over again and expecting different results... isn't that what we criticized the LAST regime for? Isn't that what we called insanity? So what does that say about those here who are taking a "wait and see" approach as they see history repeating itself over again before their eyes?
