Jurgensen thinks Campbell will be back

This PROVES that Zorn can't coach the team to wins.

Campbell has earned a return in my opinion, I'll be shocked if he is allowed to get away. If he does, he'll have a great career somewhere else.

I think what has been proven more than anything is that Zorn was wearing too many hats and playcalling wasn't his specialty.

So what's he doing now other than running practices and making jokes about salad tongs in the post-game interviews?

I agree, he had too many duties, but I don't think he's capable of being a head coach. QBs coach seems to be his most-qualified position, as long as he can't call plays.

He's an incredibly likable person...to me and the players obviously...but I just don't think he can handle the top job.

I don't know, being a head coach?

There are plenty of coaches that don't call plays, it doesn't mean he's now walking around twiddling his thumbs. There's still plenty of responsibility on his plate.

While there are plenty of coaches who don't call plays, I don't know of any who are told by their owners/GMs that they CAN'T. Given the choice, is there any doubt Zorn would choose to call plays again?

As to his other responsibilities, Zorn is responsible for the roster and he hasn't made Danny Smith pull ARE from punt return duty. That alone is deserving of firing right there.
