Meanwhile...

Shanahan had a game manager on the roster (or could have gotten a game manager via free agency), yet chose to trade for a washed up veteran that couldn't even be a game manager.

He took an established defense, blew it up (creating more holes on the roster) and implemented a new scheme.

Finally, he took a run-first team and turn it into a pass-first team. The problem (like with the defensive overhaul) is that we didn't (and still don't) have the talent or players to run such a scheme.

I guess I need to realize that last year was a complete waste and this is rebuilding year #1.
