Re: Now What??

Firing Jim Zorn makes little sense unless Vinny Cerrato goes with him and Dan Snyder completely steps out of football operations. Some here don't want to see that and think some of us are too hard on Snyder, but in his tenth year as owner, things have reached epic failure.

lol Snyder will probably hire a crappy GM, then when he fails he'll say "see what happens when I don't get involved."

Did Vinny hire Zorn and Blache? If so, then yes he must go.

Okay, so Zorn gets fired. Then what? Other than a scrub wanting to add HC to his resume and pay down some bills, who would want to coach for Mr. Snyder?

I agree.

No great, young upcoming coach is going to want to waste his first coaching opportunity and image on the Skins gig under the circumstances as they stand.

The coach that has to come in to DC cannot be easily influenced by vast amounts of money and already have excellent coaching pride.

Re: Now What??

Our problem? Bad play selection, bad personell, bad time management, a high school head coach, we have no locker room presence, we have no team identity, our owner is too involved, we play slow, our team has no drive, we can't execute for shit, we dont even stand a chance in our division, and everyone knows it. London Fletcher is the only one with any drive. We paid alot of money on a player to blame our defense on. Or qb is not a starting NFL qb, our running backs suck, our receivers constantly look lost, we penalize ourselves way too much, we think we are better than we really are. I am tired of hearing that we are one play away. We are a bad team in a difficult division, and it is going to be hard to get out of it. Bottom line.... WE are a Bad team. Our coahes are not together, Zorn is a train wreck. Cambell has no idea what the hell is going on, Portis is more worried about what the media says, We are a Bad team. I love the skins' and this is going to be a difficult year, but CHANGE needs to happen. We need a Experienced Head Coach who can control the locker room.

Oh no, it's all Vinny Cerrato and Dan Snyder. Zorn, Blache, and the players are off the hook as long as these guys are in charge apparently.

Re: Now What??

Well, if the problem is that Zorn is in over his head, is there anything to be said for waiting for him to get caught up?

If he just doesn't have it, he doesn't have it. It's not the playcalling, in my opinion, if he just doesn't manage people well there's no reason to try to push through. But if he does all the small things well, maybe we just have to wait him out for everything to click?

I think the organization needs to decide if Jim Zorn just has too many hats, or if he just doesn't have coaching ability. Right now, I'd suggest it's the latter, but you don't just fire someone because you are mad that you were upset. You actually have to diagnose the issue before you take action.
