It took him awhile, but yeah I believe he's on the plus side of .500 for his career.

Notice that he didn't really start winning until he gave the offense over to Whisenhunt who likes to mix things up and go for the jugular.

I'm not his biggest fan.

You're not hiring the 1992 defensive coordinator who is full of energy and excitment. You're hiring the guy who has spent the last two seasons in the studio, doing pretty lazy game analysis and would only consider coaching the Redskins if we gave him way more money than he's worth. That's who you want as our coach?

Figures.

I hope it's not true, but it wouldn't surprise me at all. Let's face it guys no matter what you've heard JZ was not our 1st, 2nd or 3rd pick. It was most likely Cowher, Spags, Fassel-prior to the fan uprising. A bad ending to this season in combination w/ the possible availability of Cowher could mean changes again.

But listen, our issues go alot deeper than JZ. Our organization may need an overhaul soon, starting at the top.

If there are changes, I would hope that there are some wholesale changes and not just the coach. I want to see if JZ can right this but if not some serious consideration should go to Jim Schwartz of Tenn. We interviewed him last year. BC wouldn't come here w/out some sort of final say on personel. Jim Fassel would be our next coach for sure. OMG.

DS may have to come out w/ the dreaded, coach killing vote of confidence.

[Dblock804]

Nobodys safe when you don't score. The Lions have out scored us. Milk and cookie time is over. Zorns demeanor is about to change. He may even drink a beer and skip chruch. The Jaw is movin to DC.

[SmootSmack]

The absolute worst thing that Snyder could right now is revert to being the panicky fan he was before Gibbs came along and dismiss Zorn after this season. Yeah, we're 1-4 in our last 5 games. But we were also 6-2 in our first 8 games. We're talking about a first year head coach. He deserves a chance to improve on season one. I think all first time head coaches deserve that shot. Zorn wasn't my choice necessarily for head coach, but he doesn't deserve to get dismissed.

As for Cowher...I don't see it happening. I think he's going to Dallas if anywhere

[Bushead]

I couldn't stand that amount of turnover anymore. So what we are all saying is a man only gets one year, and doesn't get to add any of his players essentially, who is a rookie head coach and has to go through tons of growing processes himself, who took a team to what might be a winning season, the axe in one year?

I Just couldn't handle it

And please don't just pin point your thoughts on how we aren't going to have a winning season this year and we are going to lose the last 3. That is not the point of this post.

Zorn, should go down or ought to go down as the first HC ever to be an interim first year HC before the season started. His responsibilities going into this year were too over whelming and way above his pay grade and initial application.

I would hope we could either down grade him as Offensive Coordinator, but at the same time I preach continuity and being able to solidify our leadership and not this carousel of direction we are supposed to be heading.

It seems Cowher would never be interested in us. Where are we gonna find a guy worthy of us and better yet would want to keep Zorn as Off Coord.???

In Baltimore, they have Cameron for Off. and Ryan for Def. their HC Harboraugh is simply just a lifeguard watching over the 2 sides not really even messing with them. He simply is the front man who does interviews to the media and is supervisor for his staff.

Zorn posseses great character but I haven't seen the players seem to be declining their approval of him by the week. I wish Snyder/Cerrato could evaluate the talent/ team we have and be able to bring coaches/players in that work around them rather than entities that falsely build hype which fuels his product being merchandised.

I like how all of our problems are reflections of poor Mgt. but all they do is temporarily disguise it or temporarily sweep it under the rug. History seems to repeat it self again in DC.

Downgrade Zorn to Offensive Coordinator? You're kidding, right? Isn't he calling the offensive plays now? How does THAT seem to be working out so far (Crumbling offensive line nothwithstanding)?

You know I wouldn't put it pass my boy snyder. Zorn is like an Interim coach but just for the whole season. He wasn't the first second third or fourth pick for Snyder. So don't be shocked if a coach with real head coach credit turn Snyders attention back to the one we all know and loathe.

Or I think if we re-examine the Off. Coord. we may be able to shop and find better. I don't think I have seen an OFfense that functioned since the early 1990's.

[hagams]

I don't know what pisses me off more, the fact that this guys wrote the article, or the talk of a new coach again.

Anyone know when Ping Pong comes on T.V, I bet all 8 of the fans don't have to deal with this shit.

Would this be that big of a surprise if true?

And yes it would be a huge surprise, because it would mean that the Skins really have no hope of ever having stability. Everyone has said Snyder learned from Gibbs, so changing after 1 relatively successful season, regardless of these last 3 games.
