For possibly the first time ever I fully agree with Peter King.

Have you ever seen a Gibb's press conference? I love the guy but if you remember his re-introduction Gibbs was Giddy as hell. His voice cracked, he has that crazy laugh, made jokes about himself (one of the most endearing characteristics that is Gibbs). And this is a guy thats won three Super Bowls and led the Redskins through what is known as the Decade of Dominance.
Plus when Zorn was asked football questions he seemed right at home, just like Gibbs who was always prepared and calm when faced with questions about X's and O's.
My point is don't judge this guy by his introductory press conference. The whole media flavor of the week is Synder fucked up (which he kind of did), so to add to that writing about Zorn being nervous and out of place only helps to build on that momentum. Wait till we get on the field, I think a lot of us are going to be pleasantly surprised.
