Re: JLC urges Skins fans not to put it all on Zorn yet

There's only one way to come to a reasonable conclusion in regards to Zorn's moderate success to this point, ( I say moderate because so far he's a 500 coach.) There are deficiencies beyond his control, he is the HC and ultimately must accept responsibility for both success as well as failure. However, I have been more than willing to give Zorn the benefit of the doubt because all the parts neccessary are not in place. Once all the parts are in place (if that ever happens) and the tream still lacks in performance, then maybe it would be time to take a harsher look.

For now Zorn just needs to remember what Steve Largent reminded him of when he first came here to Washington.

Like it or not it's a sink or swim business and Zorn needs to win games, regardless of his inexperience. Of course you can't put it all on him but at the end of the day he will be the first to go if the team doesn't get on track.

So the front office and ownership are calling plays? OK, good to know.

Sure, he could go make Zorn the sacrificial lamb, but the next guy in queue will have the same problems.
Allegedly, when Gibbs left, Snyder told Cerrato he had two years to turn the team around. So if thats true, we can expect/hope for Cerrato and Zorn both to be gone after this season and Snyder will hire a GM with total authority (i.e. he overrules snyder) and a proven head coach. Any plan other than that and we won't be able to remain competitive in the division.

If i'm not mistaken, Cowher lives in Raleigh, about 5 minutes from where I live. Its 2-1/2 hours from Charlotte. Fed Ex field is 4-1/2 hours from Raleigh. I don't think the difference in distance inofitself is substantial enough to make him pick one team over the other. Cowher would certainly have more prestige if he succeeded in Washington in the NFC-East. However, Carolina's organization itself is much more attractive. At the end of the day, I think he choses carolina, though.
