Chaisson was not an elite pass rusher in college and was a 3-4 OLB. We drafted him to be a game changing DE in a 4-3 system at a position and scheme he is unfamiliar with. That was a typical boneheaded move by Caldwell.

He isn't making those decisions without consulting the coach staff though I think.

So perhaps some of his swings and misses (and I'm not counting Chaisson as a miss yet) are because of poor coaching strategies?

Those Fords have done a bang up job with the Lions, haven't they?

Skins have been perennially bad since Snyder took over really. Lions, bad more seasons than not (and they got the #1 pick and got a franchise QB in Stafford back in the day). Browns factory of sadness and even at 4-1 they could still finish bad this year.

Thing is, these owners care about winning as much as it affects their bottom line. Just field a team, people will watch and buy, and it makes them money.
Winning really only matters to the people's whose jobs are on the line, and the fans.

I mean, ego maniacs like Jerry Jones probably cares about winning more than a guy like Khan but outside of that, it's just business to them. A money maker and probably a way of getting a huge tax break (tax code laws change often but I know they've had tax breaks before associated with owning franchises).

Khan is relatively young as an NFL owner. Still plenty of time for him to get the right people in place.
