Jim Zorn is ****ing Goofy! LOL

Picture: Jim Zorn's sideline attire makes Belichick look like Armani - Shutdown Corner - NFL - Yahoo! Sports

I must say, Jim is a funny ass dude.. Every time I heard the guy after a game I wanted to start laughing Win Or Lose lol.. On a serious note, the guy has done a good job with Flacco.

It's not his fault that Ravens approved of the design. He's just doing it for the team.

bigtime +1
i've actually grown gained appreciation for both his coaching and his ability to tolerate the chaos that must have occured behind the scenes in Ashburn

Zorn had
less talent
less support from the FO
a younger less experienced coaching staff that was largerly leftover from a regime that ran a different system
Yet his passing offense was better in the 2 most important areas 3rd down and RZ and that's with Jason Campbell at QB and Levi Jones and an injured Stephon Heyer as bookend tackles)

Probably easily explained since Zorn's passing game was much more conservative, didn't try to go down the field hardly at all, and mostly involved short dump offs.

Zorn actually did pass downfield his 1st season and part of his second season.
He ran a very traditional WCO w/ 3, 5 and 7 step drops.

I don't believe it was possible to pass downfield with Levi Jones and an injured Stephon Heyer as bookends and Zorn rightly made the correct adjustements. (I distinctly remember the Panthers game when Campbell got tackled from behind with no blitz doing the fake on a play-action pass as the end of the 5 step and beginning of the 3 step passing offense)

And Zorn's offense found away to control the clock and convert 3rd downs and was better in the RZ don't you agree that those are important areas?

Zorn's offense isn't unlike what the Ram's offense does w/ Bradford.

You know he & Spurrier both were operating w/dreadful personel on O. Both were put into ridiculously difficult positions. I'm not saying both didn't make problems as well, and both seemed unfit to lead an nfl team. But both guys could design an offense & I think could've been or can be O coordinators in the nfl.

Spurrier actually had his team 3-1 & moving the ball well w/Ramsey in 03. It didn't take long for it to fall apart, but if he'd become the Colts o coordinator would his system have failed? Despite the risk involved for the qb I think w/good personel he would score a lot.

Zorn had things going for half a season, but eventually good game planning gets figured out & if you don't have the personel to adapt you're screwed. He never should've been a head coach, but like others have said here, he's a stand up guy & he was dealt a pretty tough hand.

This and this. I admire Zorn for his honesty, for his refreshing relative lack of self-consciousness, and for his Seattle-style trendiness.
