Players cooling to Zorn

[A10sROCK]

Danny Snyder dumped Schottenheimer because he [Schotty] wanted to make all the personnel decisions. Snyder was a young, immature owner then; who fancied himself a GM. Every single season the Redskins have had a tough season after that, there's a cloud of fans saying the HC will be fired immediately.

The fan sites have the same threads ["xxx Coach fired at the end of this season"] - every season with Spurrier, even Gibbs and now with Zorn. Since Schottenheimer, Snyder has not fired a Head Coach - the coaches have resigned. So why would Snyder dump Zorn?

If Snyder fires Zorn after a 7-9 season [worst case] WHO in the NFL would come to coach here? Cowher? Why work for an extremely fickle boss?

PFT is not a good source. No players are going to be happy when the team starts to lose games. Zorn is a rookie coach who needs another season to get better. Zorn did not massage CP the way some top players need to be stroked. Yet, Zorn also got this team to play above itself.

If Zorn is dumped there will be no talented coaches that would come here without a massive contract and a list of conditions to restrict Snyder and Cerratto.

The truth is that Zorn is the best Snyder can get to come to this franchise. No real coach would come here to take this sort of guff from a player, suffer under the mediocre GM that is Vinny and bring this team up to this level for this small a contract. Only a washed-up coach or one who's never had a chance would take this job.
