Re: BREAKING NEWS: Multiple Sources Confirm Jim Zorn Named Head Coach

Something else intriguing from JLC: "Zorn got a five-year deal, in essence, but league sources said it is actually three years guaranteed with two club options after that."

So it is a 3 year guaranteed deal with a TEAM option for 4 and 5. With the trend of HCs not going into the last year of a contract as a lame duck and instead hitting the road or getting an extension, this makes this effectively a 2 year deal. What kind of record does Zorn have to produce in years one and two to get an extension? I figure he gets a one year reprieve but he is looking at needing a playoff appearance by year two to get an extension. Of course, he may just go into the third year with no guarantee, but like I said, that would be going against the trend.
I am curious what people think he will need to produce in terms of a win-loss record and is this even fair for a guy who is installing a whole new offense?
