Do you expect Zorn to be fired

The way I feel about Zorn is this: After the loss yesterday I saw one thing I thought I'd never see a coach do; hang his head. Right out on the sidelines with the last few seconds ticking away. NOT good. Simply put, it was a man defeated. It looked like all his will and hope got sucked out of him while each second ticked away. Then he went into the press conference and B.Mitch put it best... And I know most people want Mitch's head on a stake around here, but he said that every time Zorn goes to the press conference he goes to answer the questions of the press. So what does he do? He answers the questions. So. It's not that Zorn is doing the wrong thing, as B.Mitch put it, he's doing his job. But it feels like he's just going through the motions. I feel like Zorn is doing what he does, because he has to do it. I'll say it, I don't think he has the love of HCing or the passion to do it. I feel like he's coaching because that's what they paid him to do so... He's gonna do it. There's no personality to him. And you don't have to be boisterous and throwing chairs angry, but you gotta have some sort of... Oomph to you. Zorn doesn't have that. I can't remember the last time he did have that. That "Hip hip hooray" moment last year? Gibbs had it almost all the time. I don't ever think I ever saw Gibbs hang his head, at least not in front of the cameras. Hanging your head means you've given up on not only yourself, but your players. Players hang their head after the game but your coach is supposed to be your rallying cry, the one who won't let you hang your head even if your loss was incredibly embarrassing. When your coach is out there hanging their head with you? Something is extremely wrong.

Overall Zorn is in way over his head and someone needs to start hitting the brakes (or at least consider it) on this runaway train before we crash. Maybe Zorn has the potential to be a good HC someday, but IMO I think he's lacking some of the core of HC fundamentals (other ones that I didn't talk about but I'm sure you can throw a few out there).

Wow. Did not see the game (only painful highlights) or the post-game conference, but this is sad.

You're right though.

wow, you must be the only surviving Zorn supporter on here. Yes one game from .500. This year the skins were given a gift with the cupcake schedule. Easily could have gone 5-1. The schedule will not get any easier.

Jim Zorn is only 1 game back from .500. There are still 11 games left this season. There is still time to turn around. There is no need for a knee jerk reaction and fire him at anytime during the season. Just let him finish it out and have a chance to right the ship (since everybody want to compare a football team to a boat these days). It can't get any worse and if nothing else an experience like this will build some character. In Jim Zorn’s defense he has the hardest job in the NFL and he hasn't thrown the towel in like some other NFL head coach who couldn't even make it through one season in Atlanta. The man is fighting his guts out but he is stuck in quicksand. Let him finish the job that he is getting paid to do.

If the team was a ship: The Captain would be counter flooding to stop the listing from the three fish that already went in. He knows that there's not much he can do, the boilers are out. The best seaman are exhausted from trying to put out the fires and reinforcing bulk-heads.

The owners of the ship are baffled. In their eyes the good ship lollipop had good enough armour (1 inch) to stop torpedos and a great AA battery. Radar/Sonar, bah, that's witch craft!

That's what is scary.

I just heard a......shocking stat. Yesterday was the first time in 10 F..N GAMES that we scored a first qtr TD..........
unbelievable

No, I just believe that it is stupid to try and can him right now. An interim head coach isn't going to turn this thing around either. All firing him would do is deflate the team even more than it already is.

yes, you're right. no matter what, the season is done. a new coaching staff will not turn it around, but it gives them the opportunity to evaluate the team and focus on the needs to build and prepare the team for next year. Right now we have players that are not contributing at all, a new staff will help weed them out.

Welcome to the board brah...

Sorry we couldn't meet under better circumstances.

Yeah Man...this seems like a legit board.

At this point, it seems like we have a wasted season on our hands. I say we start unloading and begin to put things back together (I hate using the word rebuild, kinda scary :(). Hopefully, the root of our problem, Vinny Cerrato is gone, or at least relieved of his GM duties (or lack there of). Once Dan Snyder realizes that he is not a GM, nor is qualified to be a GM, then we can move on from there. I would like to see some positive changes, because not only is the Front Office in shambles, the locker room is in chaos

That is what game film, offseason workouts, and training camp are for.

BTW, what unit are you in? I used to be in 1/9 FA.

Zorn was picked for this reason so a new vetern coach becomes available. He is already fired, he just hasn't been given his walking papers.
