Funny thing is, our O is finally showing some firepower. Problem is it's only till we get inside the 10. Zorn's playcalling (and I am cautious to criticize play calls usually) was terrible inside the 10 but otherwise, I think the O has done a good job of taking what the defense gives them.

Yeah, if you look especially at the Rams game, we moved the ball at will until we hit the invisible glass wall at the ten yard line.

The passing game has improved but hasn't borne fruit yet. Start executing in the redzone and they start looking very good.

If what is said is correct it explains perfectly our red zone inadequacies don't you think? :-/

I know that he won't throw his boy Zorn under the bus, but I'd be very interested in what he thought of the playcalling, intensity, personnel, etc.

What's the guy doing other than helping draw up gameplans? Any accountability on his end or is Zorn just working the softer side of the plan?

Anyone with any insight?

Sherman Smith did an interview with Kelly Johnson on Comcast Sports a few days ago. Not sure that it's still available.
