He must be worried about the media perception of the move. He must not want to take another round of in season criticism.

Firing a coach during the season doesn't accomplish much. Snyder isn't dumb, he doesn't want two coaches fired mid-season on his resume. He probably wouldn't have fired Norv if he could do it over again.

Dont forget, Bruce Allen is supposed to do the firing now.

Bruce Allen will have alot of firings and hirings to do over the next month.

we already look like a joke. firing Zorn now would just add to it. whats another 7 days. another off season filled with hope. what sucks is lately the off season is the only thing we have to look forward to.

Firing now, is not the same as when Turner was fired. That team still had some level of legitimacy. At this point, Zorn is gone, and keeping him in does nothing to establish Snyder as a patient owner, because everyone knows that the Rooney Rule has been met. And again 0-6 in the division, losing to Detroit, and a list of other grievances give Snyder or Allen lots of leeway in letting him go.

If Zorn was going to be fired during the season it should have been done weeks ago. Firing him now would be ridiculous.
