Team was not prepared for "situational football"

[BigHairedAristocrat]

this is exactly why i don't understand why there's a thank you jim zorn thread on this site. zorn was a complete joke as a head coach. he may be a "nice guy" but there's no reason to thank him for anything.

If Zorn's crime was that he was unprepared as a HC, then it was a greater crime to hire him as the HC...there is a Thank You Zorn thread simply because the spoiled child at the head of this organization handled the situation like the asshole that he is whereas Zorn handled it with dignity. Rather than quit on the team mid way through the season, he stuck it out and did his job to his ability...can the same be said of Snyder?

I gotta agree with bighair.What do you mean he didnt quit on the team,of course he didnt,quit and you dont get paid,simple as that.Zorn was at least bright enough to figure that out.

Maybe Zorn knew there was about a million $ reasons to stick it out. Maybe a real man would have tould Snyder to kiss his ass and kept his pride and walked from the money. So it could go both ways.

This entire mess is the little general's (Snyders) fault. Who the hell hires an OC and a DC before they hire a HC. That is totally laughable. And he did it after spending 4 years with Joe Gibbs. He learned nothing in 8 years. It finally took this complete total embarrassment of the franchise to wake his ass up. That is unbelievable.

Nothing wrong with thanking a guy for his hard work and dedication. Obviously he was in over his head as head coach but that wasn't his fault. Gotta fault the guy that put him in that position to begin with.

Agreed. If they hired me to be HC and I went 4-12, don't blame me, blame the moron that put me there.
