Should Mike Shanahan be fired?

Every game cannot come down to being a shootout. Our defense just can't stop anybody. Opponents can run, pass, it doesn't matter. Our offense is finally respectable but I don't think anyone can respect the skins as long as ou defense is this bad.

Unless somehow the defense is changed and starts playing well, I don't see us winning very many games, and I still believe we finish between 3 and 6 wins solely because of the horrible defense.

The defense is consistently bad, but the change to watch for is in the offense. I suspected RG3 would buy Mike and Kyle a little extra time this season before every opposing defense knew what we would do before we did. Looks like I was mistaken and the Shanahans are cooked at about the half-way point, not significantly different than the previous two years.
