That's part of being a professional, rookie or not. Zorn's responsibilities involve calling plays that will utilize the strengths of the WRs to put them into position to succeed. We don't know what Hixon's responsibilities are. So yes, the conclusions being drawn do seem awfully shallow and baseless considering what we know (which is next to nothing).

We know he's the WRs coach. We know production from our WRs has been severely lacking since he's been here. Sure, none of us sit in on coaching meetings or attend practices, but I would think as a WRs coach his job is to, well, coach the WRs and make them better at their responsibilities.

If a team as a whole plays poorly year after year, the head coach usually gets fired. Why should it be any different if a certain position performs poorly year after year?
