Matty,you said building a winner takes time,which is true.But when you pull an idiotic move like taking a top 5 defense and switching to a 3-4 without the personel to run it,the regime is not looking good from the get go.I dont see how anyone can defend Shanahans actions on that subject.
And getting back to Carolina,they might be a mess this year but they have been better than us every yr except 1 going back to 2002,
Plus,as I previously stated,their coach didnt take a top 5 defense and turn it into the worst,they didnt pay a guy 40million for 1 season of work,etc etc.Thats why were worse off than Carolina,but thats just my opinion.

Well first off it was a top 10 defense, 10th overall in yards given up to be exact.
With any scheme change you're not going to have 100% of the parts in place to make it work. We don't have all the parts in place for the offense yet either, so should they have just stuck with last year's scheme?
You do realize Carolina has 1 win and Fox has one foot out the door don't you? I'm really amazed at this logic that they are somehow better off.
