It's all a play on word. Just like Lawyers. lol. but there needs to be communication. The coach needs to inform the players of his intentions. Then not go on Tv and blame or name or throw under the bus players for their performance. Good coach's in my opinion are the ones that don't do that and point out that the team did not perform. If Zorn wants to keep using the "Execution" word fine but be vague as to who's not executing. Simply say the play didn't go as I planned it. Point out what the end result of the play was supposed to be and move on.
I thought it was a fine analogy, but how about this one...

Two kids go to a math class. Teacher goes over problems on the board and then gives out some practice problems to do in class. One kid works them through, making mistakes and making his corrections till he gets them all, the other kid says "that's easy, I'll just skip it". Then the teacher gives a pop quiz with a very short time limit and the exact problems that were on the practice work.

Who do you think has the most success on the pop quiz?

Sometimes there is no substitue for "hands on".
