Re: "Jason Campbell struggles against the Steelers"

How many more excuses can Zorn and Campbell come with for their poor performances on the field. Why can't Zorn just tell everyone like it is. Zorn, should say "I can't call plays" and Campbell should say "I can't quarter back". I'm starting to feel like others. Maybe we should gone with another QB. Because tonight was not on the offense line, but on Campbell himself.

You sure you didn't watch last year's game instead? We won yesterday.

Yep. Might not be all Campbell. Zorn may just be a sucky coach and play caller. That's what happens when the FO hires an unproven QBs coach to run the offense. He's got no resume that warrants getting the benefit of the doubt.

I call bullshit on you. You were on here last week claiming that Campbell needed to throw it deep to prove a point. THEN WE DID THAT and now you are questioning Zorn's playcalling.

Basically, you have no idea why you hate our offense, and just want change for the sake of change. Why torture yourself any longer. You won't be able to rationalize to yourself what's happening if things are working, so why watch?

Just admit it, you're watching in the hope that Campbell fails, and then you can say you had it right, and that we needed a new QB. If Zorn fails along the way, then he's just collateral damage in your eyes.

Woah, take it easy fella. Didn't mean to strike a nerve. Take a deep breath and have a few sips of your Sunday morning coffee. The one play I criticized last week was the pass to Randle El in traffic when DT was in single coverage down the sideline on a pattern that wasn't all that deep. My point was that he had options on that play and went for the short pass vs. a mid to long pass that for most QBs is just as high a percentage play.

I don't think it's radical to submit that Zorn MAY NOT be that good of a coach, since he's got nothing in his past he can hang his hat on, except for the 6-2 start that could have been as much smoke and mirrors as anything else.

The only thing I'll admint is that you're a tool.

You tried to use it as indisputable proof that the quarterback didn't have an ability to see a play as it developed. You were wrong, you didn't take responsibility for being wrong, and this week, the gameplan proved you hilariously wrong.

I personally don't really care what you think about Zorn as a coach, and perhaps you'll be proven right on him in the long run. Maybe you'll be right about Campbell too, in the long run.

At this point though, all you've proven is that you're a hypocrite, and that I don't believe that there can be an outcome to this season that makes us both happy.

So, in light of the evidence, I hope Campbell and Zorn do well, win double digit games, and that you have a miserable year watching it.

we always have an excuse but I'll hold final judgment for awhile

if someone else on another team plays fine we don't offer praise, but if our guy can't even accomplish half of it, there are excuses

kinda funny eh
