Zorn to stop calling plays
After yet another poor offensive performance on Sunday afternoon in a 14-6 loss to the Kansas City Chiefs at FedEx Field, the Washington Redskins did make a coaching change - but not the one many were expecting.
The Redskins announced late Sunday night that Vinny Cerrato, the executive vice president of football operations, had met with Coach Jim Zorn after the game and told him he thought Zorn had too much on his plate.
According to Zack Bolno, the Redskins' director of communications, Cerrato told Zorn he wants him to succeed and that he believes someone else should call the plays. Zorn did not disagree and the two will meet Monday to decide who will call the plays.
According to Bolno, wwner Daniel Snyder was not in the meeting but is aware of the decision.
