Notes from Zorn's Press Conference (Sept. 28)

I begged to differ. I remember hearing former Redskins players under Gibbs I say that he [JG] would kick or throw chairs in the locker room during halftime if the 'skins were not playing well. Seemed to work just fine.
Never heard that. I might believe he may have done this back in the 80's but not his last four years.

Is it me, or does it seem like Zorn always tries to deflect blame from himself. I don't watch many interviews, so my take on him may be out of context.
He has to to an extent, he can't say oh whoops my fault every loss.. Gibbs could because of who he was and just his style that Danny already knows about, but Zorn won't get away with it.. if he starts blaming himself, he's resigning basically.. It would be nice if he'd take responsibility for a play or two though.

Yeah I didn't hear about it in 2.0 but heard he was big on flipping the gatorade tables in the 80s

Zorn sure as hell isnt Gibbs but Gibbs handled the players the same way talking about how they fought their guts out and are quality guys and everyone loved it. If you really want to see the players lose respect for a coach just have him throw a clipboard during a halftime meeting. That stuff works in high school but not in the pros.
Well the Niners have come around under Singletary and are talking about how he's helping them so much when last year they were like who is this asshole making us run hills, etc.

I'm sure.

I watch the presser every week though. Never heard the question asked, has the Z man talked to the owner yet.

Well there was a reason to ask it this week

And then we flip over to december presser for Dallas:

-Well yes we try hard to win in December but we just make little mistakes.
-Yes I no Romo cannot win in Dec or January but he looks great for the other 12 games when he is not throwing int's.
-Yes I understand that I will probably not be the coach after we lose our last game and we miss the playoffs once again.
Thats cool with me. Would rather have that legacy attached to a season than the legacy that is now forever written on the Redskins 2009 season.

Yes of course. That was the reason of the first post.....

Like are you riding a plane back to DC....OR walking to the other Washington. ;)

It will be forgotten during the offeseason...or when the Lions win again this year...whichever comes first.

I definitely agree

Pretty stark contrast to the last guy huh? Gibbs asked for the blame to go to him in pretty much every situation, which the fans and media were happy to oblige him. A lot of us were pretty critical of his tactics but I'm appreciating a lot of the little things JG did more and more everyday.

People used to get on Gibbs for taking all the blame.

Now Zorn is guilty of not taking enough.

Insane I tell ya.
