Shanahan would probably say that Plummer didn't play well enough, or that Cutler beat Plummer out. I'd say that Shanahan had his golden boy and saw what he wanted to see, so he pulled the trigger too early.
Plummer was not going to be an elite QB and Cutler had/has the tools. Coaches get caught up in that all the time, the same as the fans do.
