Re: Report: Shanahan to DC done deal
Firing a coach during the season doesn't accomplish much. Snyder isn't dumb, he doesn't want two coaches fired mid-season on his resume. He probably wouldn't have fired Norv if he could do it over again.

Re: Report: Shanahan to DC done deal
Dont forget, Bruce Allen is supposed to do the firing now.

Re: Report: Shanahan to DC done deal
we already look like a joke. firing Zorn now would just add to it. whats another 7 days. another off season filled with hope. what sucks is lately the off season is the only thing we have to look forward to.

Re: Report: Shanahan to DC done deal
Firing now, is not the same as when Turner was fired. That team still had some level of legitimacy. At this point, Zorn is gone, and keeping him in does nothing to establish Snyder as a patient owner, because everyone knows that the Rooney Rule has been met. And again 0-6 in the division, losing to Detroit, and a list of other grievances give Snyder or Allen lots of leeway in letting him go.

Re: Report: Shanahan to DC done deal
If Zorn was going to be fired during the season it should have been done weeks ago. Firing him now would be ridiculous.

Re: Report: Shanahan to DC done deal
I'm happy Zorn hasn't been fired, what would that accomplish other than give some small measure of satisfaction to the fans. Why not be professional, finish out the season, and then fire him like other, better GMs would do? You think Bill Polian would fire Caldwell after a 4-11 season with one game to go? Nope and that is a GM you want to emulate

Re: Report: Shanahan to DC done deal
I wonder if John Fox gets fired, could we lure him to be the DC for Shanny?
