Re: Do you expect Zorn to be fired
 

[quote=Lotus;606246]I think that the real problem is the team culture, not Zorn.

Nonetheless, the coach takes the fall, especially when an offensive coach produces little offense. Zorn may be gone the day after the Philly game, when we are on our bye.[/quote]

I agree, to an extent. But Zorn certainly has not done anything to help himself here.

Re: Do you expect Zorn to be fired
 

I think Zorn will last til the end of the season and then get fired. But the problems run deeper than Zorn. We simply don't have the personel on offense. People can bitch about Samuels all they want, when he leaves the offense goes from bad to unwatchable.

Portis seems to have no heart at all. He doesn't seem hungry.

Lil Danny is livid....

Let the Jim Zorn termination watch begin

With the Redskins finally managing to blow a game against a team that previously had lost every game it had played, and with "consultant" Sherm Lewis in place to absorb some of coach Jim Zorn's duties, it's not too early to start wondering when Zorn will be fired.

Early rumblings are that owner Dan Snyder is livid in the wake of Sunday's loss to the Panthers, which hardly qualifies as a surprise.

And firing Zorn won't be a surprise, either. The only question is whether Snyder wants to give Zorn a chance to beat the 0-5 Chiefs next week -- or whether Snyder realizes that firing Zorn might enhance the likelihood of doing so.

Either way, Zorn and I currently have an equal chance of being head coach of the Redskins in 2010. What remains to be seen is whether one of us will have the job next week at this time.

If it were up to me, you'd be the head coach.

I like your thinking process!

Re: Do you expect Zorn to be fired
 

Does anyone calling for his firing midseason believe that the team will do better during this season?
Might as well wait untill the season is over.

If we fire him now it gives us a few more months to lick our chops on who is the next sacrificial lamb

If it were a decision between Cerrato and my 4 year old dog, I'd pick the dog. At least she would maybe pick a couple o-linemen in the draft.

[quote=BleedBurgundy;606238][B]This organization is a fucking mess.[/B] That said, Zorn has been a failure in DC.[/quote]

That's the real bottom line. Zorn will be gone soon but ultimately this team's total failure starts at the very top. I think when you look at how Snyder managed Gibbs retirement, from beginning to end, this franchise competes for the most poorly run in the league. Of course Snyder's utter failures as an owner and de facto GM go back to the very beginning but I've heard over and over again contributors to this site say "Leave the past alone and recognize how Snyder has matured." Well ok then I'll focus just on the current situation...and still lil Danny doesn't have the first clue how to put a decent franchise together.

...ultimately Snyder deserves the embarrassment and failure. Zorn doesn't...he was just some random QB coach who was offered a big promotion well beyond his abilities. The players don't deserve it...they don't have any real leadership to look upon and are caught up within a mickey mouse organization. And finally we don't deserve any of this as fans. I do wish I could tune into the game one Sunday and see FedEx field completely empty. I wish determination would overcome apathy and fans would force the little man in the owner's box to sell the franchise he's nearly destroyed or completely turn the thing over to a real GM.

Bye week zorn is gone!

Re: Do you expect Zorn to be fired
 

I don't blame Zorn. I blame Cerrato and Snyder for the whole mess. And boy what a mess they've made for themselves. Kills me thinking about wasting our 2 #2s last year on non existant WR's. We coulda had atleast 1 OL. I say let B Mitch coach em up.

If anything, she'd at least pee all over Cerrato.

The thing is Snyder and cerrato arent going anywhere...you kinda have to suck it up and eat those apples. BLame if you must but the only thing that is ging o change is the coach and the players
