Zorn "probably the worst NFL hire of all time"??

Joe Gibbs was an OC, not just that but he was one of the best.

I am really surprised as to how many people do not know that.
He actually was an OC for 3 seasons. 1 with Tampa Bay in 78, and 2 with San Diego in 79 and 80.
He was an amazing OC for those 2 years leading San Diego to the 2nd most points in the NFL in 79, and 4th most points in 80 (but #1 in yards in 80).

The Worst Hire in NFL History sure doesn't have problems getting his men. Stump signed on with no tour and Sherman Smith left 13 years with Fisher and the Titans to join Zorn.

The Titans offense over the past 13 years has been a hard nosed running attack with allot of nice passing. They had Air McNair and Wycheck back in the day and Cooley and Campbell could be looking good very soon! Look at Titans offensive style and I think that is similar to what we're going to look like but more passing.

Our offense is in good hands and will be vastly improved with the modern touch of Zorn and Smith vs. Gibbs and Saunders.

can we at least give the guy a preseason and a few reg season game before we commend him to dallas or hell whichever is worse???

Nope.

Let's condemn him now and get it over with so when he fails we'll be able to say we saw it coming. If we're wrong oh well, we'll just say we were glad to be wrong.

I second this motion.

Let's just start the campaign to adopt the new Zorn nickname: PUPPET

Why do you say that?

It is bull...but Joe Gibbs was an OC, not just that but he was one of the best.


Smack, your signature pretty much sums up all that needs to be expressed in this thread. Keep a careful eye on what it's really saying as the season unfolds. I'll be here as a constant reminder.

Nope.

aka take the easy way out

Good luck with that. :yeahright

Not to pee in your cheerios angry but:
Cowher was defensive coodinator of the chiefs 89-91.
Tomlin was defensive coodinator of the vikes in 06.
Del Rio was defensive coodinator of the panthers 01-02.

I appologize for the misinformation. I was regergatating what I heard on NFL Total Access around the same time frame that I made that post. I should have referenced it deeper instead of taking the analysts words for it. My original point is null and void.

LOL. So very true. j/k

It's no big deal, no matter what any of us think, Zorn is still the leader here, we all need to get on board, or get off. For as much as I think this was a poor decision to move him to HC, I am very much hoping he will prove me wrong. Not that it matters, but I will give him the same respect and opportunity I gave all HC's we've had in recent years (Gibbs / Schottenheimer / Spurrier / Turner etc). Maybe he does have what it takes? I don't know him, or his philosophy, so he could be successful at some point.
