Our next coach??

kevin sheehan asked it on the jim zorn show today on espn980 - honestly, there was really not context to it. I was only half-paying attention because it was pretty boring, but i'm pretty sure kevin just asked the question and zorn didnt answer. Honestly, how could he? he'd either 1) be lying, or 2) admitting he sucks at his job.

That's fine, but I don't see that saying it is a stupid question is an appropriate response. It is a fair question to ask what his thoughts on it are, and if he wants to be the "straight shooter" that he was at the beginning, he could come out and say if he has learned anything over the last weeks that makes him a better HC going forward. There is nothing wrong with giving Lewis props, he was a very good coach in his time, and dismissing the question was not any better of a choice than 1) or 2) Just easier

I'm pretty sure Zorn believes the difference has been execution, not playcalling. I'm not saying he's right, but I think that's what he believes. He mentioned after the game the exact same play getting different results, once when he called it, once when Lewis called it.

I take curtain #2, Bob.

Which is why I have no idea why people still want to keep him around for "continuity"?

I was pretty sure Mooch was brought in for an interview or pulled his name out of the hat prior to. No he was not offered the job. Several people were lined up for interviews and I think he was one of them.

Mariucci and Cerrato I believe are pretty tight...but anyway Mooch basically threw himself at the Redskins to interview with them for the Redskins job. Not so much to take the job (because he's really not interested in leaving the West Coast) but to stay relevant when it comes to talking about head coaches.

yeah i remember that. i think he was down in AZ for the superbowl doing tv network stuff and he was approached by the skins. of course we were approaching everybody then, which is understandable when your trying to put together a field of potential HCs.

the dcsportsbog tweeted:
Zorn, on if bringing in Sherm Lewis was a good move: "That's a bad question, sorry. I wouldn't answer that question."

I would like to know the context of the question, and who asked, but man that's gotta be like twisting a knife in Zorn's back. He certainly could have answered with a plain, we have put up more points type answer. And I don't see how it's a "bad question"

And let me backtrack on the play-calling. I feel really good about how Sherm Lewis is performing. If we’re all responsible for certain issues and certain things, he’s doing a wonderful job. I evade those questions because it has to do with me as well. But I don’t have any negative thoughts or anything about how he’s working our program. It’s going very well with the way it’s organized.”

Thanks SS, He also said:
On if he’s learned anything from watching Lewis call plays: “It’s his mix."

I went off the Tweet, should have read the whole article.

Still, its good to know that Zorn realizes he sucks. He certainly has no place on this team in 2010 and it looks like he knows it.

Shaun has performed very well. I'm sure when I talk to him ... I know he'll just be, you know, upset, and he should be. But then yet there's an accountability there. We'll all end up being accountable for our season. No question about it.

However, with each passing game, i'm becoming more and more comfortable with the idea of Campbell as QB and Sherm Lewis as OC next year (as a backup plan, of course).

does anyone really know if Lewis wants to get back to a full time job?

Is Blache going to come back? Or will we be looking for a DC also?
