I think CP showed the real CP yesterday and unfortunately he's a no-class baby who is not smart enough to realize that Zorn was protecting him in a game the Skins couldnt win.
If Zorn ever put Portis on the bench because he gave up on a game in which the team was behind by 14 points then I say fire Zorn right now. A game they could not win? I could not disagree with you more, rirsh. They should have won that game.

The Skins were never in that game from the beginning. It was over in the second quarter because when Balt is in the lead at halftime, they dont lose. I think deep down Zorn knew they wouldnt win (he'd never ever say that) and that CP was hurting so he tried Betts to see what he could do. He wasnt giving up on the game but he understood reality and was trying to protect the only good offensive player he has.
The other thing that nobody seems to want to acknowledge is that maybe CP wasnt ready and didnt understand the schemes. Zorn's honesty has been praised on this site but now that he's said a fan favorite wasnt quite ready to play he is ripped. It amazes me how loyal the fans are to this bunch of players that hasnt done anything. Coaches have changed but a lot of the core players have stayed the same. I'm starting to think this core group that hasnt won squat is the problem.
