Based on that statistics pertaining to that article, it appears that Bruce Allen and Mike Shanahan are very naive in just cutting Gano and presenting the kicking job to Cundiff as a gift.

Might have a point there. On the other hand Cundiff probably had a few suitors and the only way to get him was to guarantee him the job. Plus maybe the staff thought they could sign Rackers or Gano mid season if Cundiff failed.
