For the Zorn / Campbell Excuse makers...

Now that we've hit a pretty bad patch those people feel "betrayed" when in truth our team is pretty much where we expected them to be in the first place if not better. If more people would take a step back and see just how early it is to have too many expectations of our team we'd be a lot better off.

Reading this go-nowhere thread was worth it just for this gem. For me, the season was a success at the back-to-back wins at dallas and philly. This season hasn't been a great one, but Zorn and Campbell need to stay if only to help improve our reputation as career killers for coaches.

Personally, I think coaching only goes so far in this league. Better players + easier schedule = wins IMO. If I'm not mistaken, Norv Turner took us the closest to the Super Bowl only after a lot of mediocre years. The team can do better with THIS coach.
