Think of it like this. If a mechanic wants to rebuild an engine, he doesn't just simply add parts to it that he needs, he takes the engine apart, tests parts that he thinks works, gets the parts that he needs to replace, puts it together, and then tweaks it until he knows it working in unison with the other mechanical parts of the car. That's pretty much what Mike had to do this year. He's in the taking things apart and testing each piece deal. Next year, he knows a little more about what he needs and hopefully once he gets the pieces in place (which might take a couple more seasons,) he should then have a team that just takes a few tweaks here and there, but is ready to compete.

I agree and was going to say the exact same thing but you beat me to it. I've come to the realization that the NFL is just like politics. No matter who is in power there are always going to be supporters and detractors. You are not going to be able to please everyone all the time.
I am also surprised by the number of people dumping on Shanny so soon. Yeah he didn't make some of the best calls, but when you are dealing with an ass clown like Haynesworth its not an easy situation to deal with. Things will get better... If people who are hating on Shanny already think Zorn or even Gibbs 2.0 could do a better job they need to start following a different sport.
