Have faith, don't scare Dan.
Admittedly,
I was as frustrated yesterday as ive been with the 'skins in a long time. Yes, i demanded Jason Campbell's head on a platter. And then i focused my anguish on Zorn. I have a different perspective today. The voices reminding us that it's a rookie head coach in his opening act against the Super Bowl champs are right. Remember when Fassel was almost the coach? I do, and i remember how vehement the opposition to that was. And then Dan, presumably hearing our cries, went a different direction. Don't abuse the privilege. Don't overreact all at once. He'll hear you, and then we'll be stuck in this perpetual attrition torture of coaches, and personel. I've put my faith in our head coach, and im holding my impatience at bay, for now... |

Re: Have faith, don't scare Dan.
Nice confession Monk!
Interesting you mention Jim Fassel. On the Doc Walker show today out of DC, they were discussing the rumor as to why Fassel did not get the job in DC. They said the rumor was, Fassel thought Jason Campbell could not do the job. They suspected that was a problem with the local power guys. Anyway............. HTTR

Re: Have faith, don't scare Dan.
I can't believe how people are reacting to one loss. Do you honestly think we won't get better? The patriots won a lot of games last year. The giants lost the first 2. Whose fans do you think are happier? No we did not look good. I've got news. We are going to lose again and when we do, we won't look good then either. We never look good when we lose, but I seriously doubt we will ever go through a year undefeated. I believe we have some good people (COACHES and PLAYERS). I'm not ready to run them out of town before they have a chance to make adjustments. Good thing we did'nt get rid of Gibbs when he went 0-5 his first year huh?

Re: Have faith, don't scare Dan.
I do appreciate the priviledge of having an owner who cares what we think. The only thing I hope is that the veteran players stay on board with JZ and not create dissention amongst themselves. It will take at least two out of three wins to keep the hounds off of Zorn.

Re: Have faith, don't scare Dan.
I'd prefer Zorn even after wk1 loss. Stability is what this team needs. It's what it needed at the end of the season last year. Hopefully Dan is smart enough to let it go a season or two. Needed Improvements are many. And the tough games just keep coming. If the Redskins don't toughen up they'll be 0-6 really fast. We can all forgive 0-5, but 0-6 is perhaps mutiny level dissent.

Re: Have faith, don't scare Dan.
I didn't actually say that, but, yes if not today he will be, I am very happy we did not hire Fassel or any other retread. JZ will be fine. He's a rookie

Re: Have faith, don't scare Dan.
Right now, it's impossible for anyone to say that Fassel is a better or worse coach than Zorn. If someone can tell me which coach is better, I'd like to talk with them so I can get the Powerball numbers for tonight's drawing.
