To be fair, Gibbs II in just his second season went 10-6 and won a PLAYOFF game. In ten really long years 2000-2010 only Gibbs has taken us to the playoffs, and he did it twice in 4 years.
To be fair to Shanahan, we have to give Shanahan 3 to 4 years to really give him a fair chance to turn us around.
I am not impatient with Shanahan, give him time.
My only disappointment up to know with Shanahan is switching to 3-4 defense which set us even further back and created even more holes to fill on our roster. As if we did not already have a ton of holes to fill.
If you are going to do that, then commit to a total re-build and do not send valuable draft picks for an old veteran QB. Those two decision directly contradict themselves and was really poor planning.
