Out of all of those comments, you focus on the "further ahead" line, which I'll bet even Zorn would say was a throwaway line?

I believe Geisinger plays for the Panthers now.

Not to go really off topic. Adderbury was released today. It looks like Hunter is our boy.

Yes, because it's in the thread title. The Skins always do this hyping shit year in year out and I'm happy to shoot this "happy-hype-talk" down year in year out. I have always been consistent with my "show me, don't tell me" sentiments...if you don't already know you better ask somebody.

I agree with Saden. That Redskins Insider post said absolutely nothing.

The only thing I took from that was Devin Thomas' hammy is 100%, so I guess that's good news.

So calling the young WR's "sad" is "hyping shit"? Zorn's comments seemed to me to be a pretty honest and straightforward assessment.

That's one of the things I really like about him. You're not gonna get a whole lot of BS.

Don't play these games with me son, I won't stand for it.

I honestly think we can win 10+ games aslong as our Offense can score atleast 20 ppg. I think we have a Playoff type D but it's on JC and our WR'S to prove the critics wrong.

We only averaged 16.6 ppg last year, 3rd or 4th worst in the league. I dont think we have done alot to upgrade our offense.

Re: Zorn: 'We're Further Ahead' This Year
 
In view of the fact that the Redskins twice tried to replace him in the off-season, Zorn's praise of JC seems a bit hollow to me.

I wonder if Zorn was as keen to trade for Cutler or Sanchez as his bosses were. Is anyone here in the know concerning Zorn's true assessment of JC?

Re: Zorn: 'We're Further Ahead' This Year
 
I think Zorn has moved on and I think his praise of Campbell is genuine. From all accounts JC really was sharp in mini camp.

I really doubt he was the force behind trying to upgrade at the QB spot, but I'm sure he had some say in rubber stamping whatever move the FO was going to make.

We won't know until the season whether we have the horses to develop, but I think you are suggesting a complete (or moderate) offensive overhaul, which is precisly what NOT to do in this situation.

Admittedly, I think we missed some oppertunities in free agency to improve the offense, but that doesn't mean we can't/won't improve.

JC being sharp in camp doesnt exactly give me a warm in fuzzy about his regular season performance.

Re: Zorn: 'We're Further Ahead' This Year
 
Again, player development.
