First off Zorn isn't running a pure WCO, in fact I'm not even sure that exists anymore. His system is based on what Holmgren runs in Seattle with plenty of his own philosophies sprinkled in.

It's pretty naive to think the principles of the WCO are outdated.

You bring up an interesting point, something I was thinking about the other day. What if this off-season Zorn does like other assistants have done with their first head coaching opportunity, Gibbs for example, and basically says "I know my reputation is as WC coach, but with this talent maybe another type of offense makes more sense." Could happen I suppose
