Good to know that they can beat an elite team without KG.
It wasn't even televised here.

LOL I love Danny answer for why giving Zorn a 5yr contract.

Love the attention to detail with the QB, hope he does call the plays

Well, he's definitely a better qb coach than he was an actual qb. That's a good sign for us.

Zorn went into detail about some of Campbells' strengths and talked about Jason having to squat so low at the LOS and being more explosive off the LOS. It was a great response and IMO his other responses to football based questions do show a great attention to detail.

He is like our own version of Jason Garrett
sans the playing with Skins during his career

Re: Presser at 3pm Sunday to announce Zorn as SKINS new HC.
 
Yeah--the attention to detail is the biggest take-away I have from this briefing. Hopefully that attention will find its way to the defense and special teams as well. Gibbs was very much a big-picture guy, and the catch phrases over the last few years have been stuff like "character" and "a Redskin-type guy." I'm so happy to be hearing about the center squatting too low. I'm psyched to have a head coach that doesn't have to take a knee during field goal attempts.

The more I think about it, the more I think that DS sees Zorn as what Spurrier was suppose to be. A guy that provides a spark to the offense while leaving the defense alone, WHILE still being a leader for the team.

Nice. That is something several of us brought up during the year too. Maybe he's a member here. LOL.

Did he mention anything about who he prefers for OC, or what we will do about the OC position?

I hope not, unless they're in negotiations with someone. Best to keep your options open during a situation like this rather then peg someone to be an OC before they've been contacted.

[quote=Slingin Sammy 33;420295]I'm with you, I'm a huge Celtics fan too. My biggest fear was they would go in the tank if KG went down. But I am pleasantly surprised they're hanging in there without him.

Is this presser pretty boring so far or is it just me?[/quote]

Huge Celtic fan here too. I thought they'd struggle without Garnett but they're not even close to struggling. We have ALOT better bench then most people thought coming into the year.

Is there anywhere I can watch the presser now? I had to watch the C's play Duncan and SA.

He said he will hire an OC but he didn't hint as to who it might be

Re: Presser at 3pm Sunday to announce Zorn as SKINS new HC.
 
For the most part I was impressed with many of his remarks despite the fact he apeared just a little nervous, though I guess under the circumstances that could be expected.

He apeared engaging, honest and humourous to a degree, and he apears to be well aware of how he's going to be precieved by the fans, and the organization as a whole. He further made reference to that fact when he spoke about the poll in the WashPost which had his approval rate at 40%, higher than that of the President of the United States. At least we know he reads the paper, and obviously wants to see just how he's going to be accepted.

He further made reference to the running game, how much emphasis he'll place on it, and gaining the players trust. I'm anxious for him to get started, and to see how well he meets the challenges before him.

The Press Conference was televised live in the Washington area on Fox Televison chanel 5. locally. It will probally be archived on Redskins.com TV.

He mentioned he had some names in mind, but didn't want to reveal them. I would think he want's to engage in some dialouge with prospective hires' before revealing any details.

Now that was funny per Blache when he got the call last night about Zorn getting the HC job he was like doh....GREAT MOVE!

He is also speaking very highly of Zorn with the little time they have spent together, but friends and other coach's Blache has worked with speak the world of Zorn. I like the hire. I hope he gets it done for us.

Didn't want to start a whole new thread on this topic, but the following is from JLC's blog. I'm glad Snyderatto like to talk about character, but if they care so much about that then why do they do things like this?

JLC:
[FONT=Times New Roman,times,serif]Also, though Earnest Byner did in fact go to Redskins Park to sign his contract last week - the one-year offer that was on the table - league sources said the team then balked at him. The Redskins are trying to land Seattle RB Coach Stump Mitchell to do that job here, league sources said, and he too is close to Zorn and has worked with him for many years. The Redskins would like to convince the Seahawks to do a coaching swap of sorts, with Byner landing in Seattle (all of this, again, is ridiculously unfair to Byner,) with Mitchell going here and Byner going there.[/FONT]

I like this one:

[FONT=Times New Roman,times,serif]• Zorn now is saying how much he admires the players for the character they showed in the aftermath of Taylor's death. On the tribute to Taylor by the defense in the first game after he died: "I thought to myself, 'Who could have thought something like that up, to play with 10 players on a play to honor a fallen teammate? It's pretty awesome when you think about it."

I just started watching the presser. Snyder definitely took a cue from Gibbs by introducing Zorn's family first.
