I just don't see how he can make much of an impact in such a short amount of time. Of course I'd love to be proven wrong.

I hope that he can react to the Defenses, and also make them react to him. Some of Zorn's greatest moments as playcaller were when he was able to surprise the defense. He did that alot in his first 8 games. But he got more and more rigid trying to prove the basics. I hope Lewis has enough experience, and particularly with our WR's, get them more involved in the game. I also hope that if Zorn is not focusing on the offense as much, it may help him see the whole game. And finally, it has to take a HUGE pressure point off Zorn. He was obviously stressing to get any points at all, and I hope Lewis will be more in tune with the flow of the game and have less angst, at least for now, if we don't score the first trip into the redzone.
