Wanny needs to put all sentiments aside and put his best players on the field. I think he has personal attachments to certain players that clouds his decision-making. A few come to mind.
#1. Fiedler - I think Wanny has a personal attachment to Fiedler, keeping him as the starter when there are better QBs on the team. It is quite possible that Fiedler is the THIRD-BEST QB on the team, behind Griese and Sage. We will see what he does this week now that Griese has showed he can run the offense.
#2. Ruddy - This guy has been a somewhat mediocre center, playing decent at some times. Wanny did try to bring in that center from Chicago a few years back (Olin Kreutz, i believe) but other than that, he has been pretty stubborn about keeping Ruddy in there. Seth McKinney could be better than Ruddy, and it might be a good idea to start McKinney from here on out. Ruddy is playing like he is over-the-hill.
#3. Derrius Thompson - In my eyes, this guy is a bust. He has shown me next to nothing. I can remember him missing more plays plays than he makes. That is a very bad thing. wanny will be stubborn about this, because demoting Derrius would mean that he is admitting that he screwed up by signing Derrius and then not drafting/trading for/ signing another free agent WR. Meanwhile, J.R. Tolver and Sam Simmons are wasting away.
Wanny's job is to put the best team on the field. He is not doing his job. Feel free to add other players to this list.
