I have always thought Zorn has called effective games, but again that's an agree to disagree point, because how do you really prove it. You can call a perfect game, but penalties, dropped passes, fumbles, and other player mistakes can cause the team to lose. The question is whether the called play had a chance to be an effective play, and the only call I ever remember seeing that was a "What is he thinking" moment was the Fred Davis reverse .

Fortunately all the speculating ends in 3 1/2 days! Roll on!
Opinions on playcalling is soooo subjective. I know most of us hate on Cowherd, but I heard him make a good point in regard to this topic recently. He basically said as fans we have no idea what's going on when it comes to playcalling, how complex it is, the situational calls, plays that are setting something up for later on, etc.

I think it's true. It's part of the reason I hate listening to people bang on the playcalling after a game. What we see on TV is really just the tip of the iceberg when it comes to playcalling and it's really a pointless debate.
