To be fair, LeBeau has been the defensive coordinator since 2004. Of course they aren't going to change a defense in 2007 that's been superior. And before LeBeau, the Steelers ran a 3-4 with Cowher. That comparsion really doesn't hold water because the situation isn't the same...
The fact that Shanahan wanted to run a 3-4 is the reason he hired Haslett in the first place. That's why the scheme has changed. The Skins have the personnel to run the 3-4 successfully. It's a matter of execution and the coaches making proper adjustments, which they have not done successfully in the 1st 3 games.
