As a WR coach, half my group is unable to run proper routes and keep up w/ a "simplified playbook" + the other half experiences frequent and inexplicable cases of the dropsies = I'm not doing my job.

I don't buy that Hixon doesn't have the talent to work with. Certainly Moss needs to be opposite a legit target in order for him to be at his best and for the overall offense to remain balanced. Let's see, Hixon has be unable to develop Caldwell, ARL, Lloyd... let's even throw in Thrash, Mix and oh yeah two draftees that many experts had as 1st round talent. That's like 0 for 7 and I'm probably forgetting a guy or two. Hixon has had plenty of talent to work with. Just for sake of debate I'll consider he may be a better fit elsewhere... good for him. Zorn needs to find someone who coaches our talent to excellence (WCO experience should also help).
