re: D.C. Examiner: Zorn's job in jeopardy? (not so fast he's coming back)

Only time will tell (great song!) what's going to happen. I'm not happy with what's happening right now, but I can not fathom a coaching change next year. Zorn is stuck between developing his young players and winning football games. He's not going to throw in the towel to get his young guys in the game to gain experience with his system at the expense of benching the veterans that have stayed with the team through some serious times. He shouldn't be put under the same magnifying glass as the other rookie head coaches. Harbaugh and Smith get new QB's and RB's to play with. Zorn has to retrain his QB, keep a good but unfamiliar running attack and learn the speed of game-time decision making, all the while calling the plays on offense. He should get a pass regardless of our record this year. If things don't get progressively better as the 2009 season goes, then he should be let go.

Like a few others have said, I think a couple of "old guard" coaches and a few players will be dismissed after this year. We need a new WCO-minded offensive line coach.
