Exactly. I guess this leaves only two legit candidates for HC. Fassel and GW.

That opens the door for GW/Schwarz, Fassel/Ryan, Spagnualo/Schwarz, Fassel/GW, Meeks/Ryan, Spagnualo/GW, Meeks/Schwarz, or Tom/Jerry for HC/D Coord.

I think the move was made with Jason Campbell in mind. We're going to have a new offense so we all may as well get used to the idea, like it or not. I think Zorn will be great for Jason Campbell.

whoops sorry bout that other crap at the bottom, but is saunders out?? Don Breaux was the oc but saunders is associate hc offense

[12thMan]

I liked Zorn a lot as a player. He was one of the best during that time.

Zorn to Largent - helluva combination.

Stupid hire. What has this guy done? I feel sorry for JC. Poor guy gets a new offense every year.

what did joe gibbs do before he got here? what did jason garrett do before he became the offense coordinator of the cowboys this year? saunders had two years to help this offense improve and he didnt do much. bye bye Al.

Well I would have liked Al to run the offense the way he ran it in KC. It was very apparent that Gibbs added the conservative nature to the offense cause he's paranoid of turnovers.

Classic.

[SmootSmack]

You know technically Don Breaux is the offensive coordinator so maybe we're replacing Breaux with Zorn

Seriously though, I Would have rather kept Saunders. But if not him, then I like this move a lot. Been a big Zorn fan since his playing days. And now my Zorn rookie card needs to be framed

[redwagonskins]

Anybody else think this is putting the cart before the horse? An OC before an HC? Maybe the decision has already been made.

Jerry did the very same thing in Dallas. Garrett was named OC before Wade was hired.

I gotta admit, at first I didn't think Zorn would leave Seattle. He's been there his nearly all of his professional career, both as a player and coach, and would probably be in line to take over as OC when Holmgren leaves. But in the ESPN presser today I read that two other assistants have already left Seattle since Holmgren said '08 will be his last year. And now Zorn? That's three in a week. Maybe a lot of the staff isn't confident in the direction Mora will go when he (supposedly) takes over? Interesting...

Regardless, if Al was gonna go, I'm happy with his replacement.

thats my thinking as well.things that make you go hmmm doesn,t it..

[Chief X_Phackter]

Could be part of a behind the scene deal with a potential HC.

"prove you can get this guy, and I'm in"

[Tha Posse]

Wow another new offense. God what happend to stability! I'm ok with this if we keep GW, but if we hire an outsider for HC this sucks.
