Re: Zorn: 'We're Further Ahead' This Year

August can't get here soon enough for me; I'm sure the players and coaches are hoping it takes a while.

Good read, glad to see that Zorn is being honest about the receiving corp and not just a talking head.

Re: Zorn: 'We're Further Ahead' This Year

yeah I found that pretty interesting especially considering according to Zorn he's actually doing a good job at Center...

At worst case we need a decent backup for Rabach. If someone else is going to take over RT, I like the move.

Re: Zorn: 'We're Further Ahead' This Year

Jansen HAS to become versatile for us. He is almost 100% not gonna start and we CAN'T cut him so we need him to be able to play either G spot, RT and C in a pinch. Versatility in the backup linemen really is a godsend. Lestw e end up with Greisinger playing LT against one of the best pass rushers in the league.

I agree. I think Jansen might even be an upgrade at Center. Granted, he doesn't have much experience playing the position, but he's a MUCH better run blocker than Rabach.

Re: Zorn: 'We're Further Ahead' This Year

I like Zorny's positive comments about and support for Jason Campbell. What he said about JC is precisely what we need to hear: speeding up reads, quicker release, etc. I also like how he held the feet of the young WR's to the fire in terms of on the field expectations.

No joke...that's just like a no brainer comment.

Maybe he should address how he is going to combat a drop off after mid season. 6-2 out of the gate was great...can you do anything after that sir?

He was getting work at Center (and maybe Guard, I forget) this time last year as well. Ultimately, the best-perhaps only-way for him to extend his career is on the interior.
