I think Zorn and the offense will be very creative, and just cause we didn't see it in preseason, doesn't mean they didn't practice it. Now I am not calling for a Saunderesque playbook, but he will be very aggressive.
Stillllll Waiting.......

The west coast offense was never suited to his talents. I think that if they go with this down field vertical passing game there is hope for Campbell staying in Washington and taking us to the promise land. With the emergence of Mitchell, Kelly and Thomas, along with Moss, we should be a big play powerhouse.
Does Campbell have talents? Compared to who ?

Skin's in the past had running and passing threats but running is the best for the strategy in the NFC East just look at NY Giants. Jay Schroeder was a deep ball passer and what did he do against the Giants defense in 86?

Also M.Rypien had Gary Clark , Monk, Sanders !



Moss and Randel El are #3's in many other teams .

Dude I hope, I wanted you to be right. F the F-ing Giants...Hopefully Ole Danny Boy after drinking burbon all game, in his pissed off misery went down to Zorn after the game and said "open up the playbook to passing section and lets go!"

Re: Zorn Makes Great Progress with New Offense Geared To Campbells Talents

I am very sad that I called this because the result was negative, but, c'mon kool aid drinkers, look at the team objectively. I am worried about D Hall's coverage and tackling skills too....he is going to blow coverage and tackles and get picks all year.
Sometimes its a wash.
We got 3 pts out of his pick, we lost 7 due to his mistackle...(really 4 pts since they were already in FG range)

We have good players....some weaknesses that will be blantantly exposed by Professional D coordinators...such as Orapko, Fletcher and Hall in coverage.
And a lot of wide runs aimed at Hall.

On offense, attacking the RT, getting physical with Moss at the line and cramming the box...it is pretty easy to game plan the Skins at this point.
It is just game one, but our coaches were very slow to make adjustments last year...they have now had 9 months to adjust what good coaches can adjust at halftime...

If you don't change what you do....you cannot expect different results....Duh!

Still want to see Zorn actually tinker with the offense to suite JC. Seemed to only do it during the 2 minute drill when scoring was no longer optionable if we were to have even the slightest chance of winning. ARE was the only wideout that did any damage Sunday.

The D gave up 1 Offensive TD. The Offense is the problem. Period.

Nobody moved the ball on NY in 86 ,,, NY held SF to 6 pts in 2 playoff games 85-86 seasons . Clark dropped atleast two bombs in the NFC Title game < it was very windy > or we might have won a Lombardi Trophy that year . I agree , running is what wins Championships ,,, along with DEF !!

Like you I will keep waiting. But don't expect to seemuch as the season goes on. Zorn has nothing to show because he has nothing to show in terms of playing. People wants to still jabe out at the oline. I line did farely well but the front office could have poassibily changed that during the draft.

I know we all can be arm chair critics but you know i have seen on the forms there are some good ideas coming from others that I trully feel would help zorn and not hurt him. But we know they would listen but if they would Zorn would find some way in his piss poor game calling to mess even those ideas up.

As far as Zorn being a leader I personnily don't believe he could lead a group of cub scouts into a ice cream store giving away free ice cream.

Hall and the Defense was weak in tackling in general. That play against Manningham was a joke......!

I remember that game and Giants had the a great Defense. But to win in the NFC East you need a power runner ... Smash mouth football. Cowboys in the 90's with Emmit and Giants had Morris in '86. Skins need a another Power Runner.
