I love this board in the off season.....but

TWP is typically a place for extremes. The Redskins apologists never look critically enough. The haters are always too critical. It's par for the course and for any message board.

In my opinion. We have some relatively serious problems, these problems are:
O-line.
Predictable and overall weak playcalling.
Tackling, especially in the secondary.
Pass rush. I still feel like Orakpo at SLB is an absolute waste of talent. Let him pin his ears back.

It's not the end of the world, but the team I saw out there is a 3rd-4th place finisher in the division and home once again in January. It's not too late to fix problems, but as of now -- that's what I see.

Without playoffs this year, I expect Zorn gone.

A slow rb makes any o-line look bad. JC had plenty of time to throw. the worst part of the game was letting those short passes turn into big plays.

Given that we lost by six points on the road to our toughest divisional opponent, the season is over. There is no hope.

I hate to say I agree, because I would love to have some continuity, but this might be the best thing. I get the bad feeling watching this team that Zorn is in way over his head. I guess no one should be surprised, the surprise was him going from QB coach straight to Head coach. He is a good guy, but IMO he looks lost and confused with the playcalling.

And yeah....the drama is always in strong supply around here, it keeps things interesting.

Personally I still root for Zorn, but if he screws up this season I would like to see Dungy as the coach instead of Shanahan, Holmgren or Gruden. Shanahan won because of Elway, what happened when Elway retired?

This maybe true but Dan Synder did a extensive search and realized he already head his man. It turned out to be his new OC. Synder better not even think to fire Zorn after only 2 season unless we win less than 7 games. No one to blame if your the Owner cause you hired him which makes you look like the village idiot.

That's not how I see it at all. Dan didn't realize he already had his man. No one these days promotes a quarterback's coach to head coach. Zorn got the job by default. No one else picked up the phone, not even Rocky or Bullwinkle. If Snyder fires Zorn, Snyder will be the coach. There will no one left.
