back to where he belongs, as a qb coach. i wish him luck.

Re: Zorn finds Job.
 
Flacco will finally break that 90+ mark thanks to Zorn. Easily one of the best QB coaches in the game. Still I wonder how many years worth of QB coaching he got paid from his time in Washington

I'm sure he'll do well with the violet and gray. Good for him.

Best of luck to Zorn. Classy guy and a true gentleman.

This is a great thing to hear. Jim Zorn may have had a rough time in Washington, but he will make JFlac a top QB.

Re: Zorn finds Job.
 
I'm happy for the Z-man, he'll go back to what he probably does best. He's only forty five minutes from his last place of employment.......How fortunate.

congrats to zorn i guess, i never really understood the reasoning behind sayin he is such a good qb coach. he coached hasslebeck and he really isn't that good, just don't get, but good luck in b-more zorn.

Re: Zorn finds Job.
 
Ive never wished anything bad on the man. He was just handed some mercs with a coke head of a VP in Cerratto. Im surprised he got to 12 wins here.

With Flacco, I see that guys numbers going up up up next year, specially if they get a big name WR like they are talking about.

Good for you, JZ. I look forward to watching FlaccoZorn.

SmootSmack 01-31-2010 12:14 AM

Re: Zorn finds Job.
 
So we went from an Al Saunders offense to a Jim Zorn offense, which apparently contributed to major issues for our offense...and now they'll be working together in Baltimore

erik2680 01-31-2010 01:34 AM

Re: Zorn finds Job.
 
I would consider this a promotion for Jim Zorn. He no longer has to work with Daniel Snyder.

SirClintonPortis 01-31-2010 02:46 AM

Re: Zorn finds Job.
 
Feel free to bet an entire fortune on the next Ravens vs. Redskins matchup(with the Redskins losing) if he's still there whenever they meet up again.

Just watch, next time we play Baltimore, they line up all their punt team on one side of the field and put Sam Koch, their punter on the other side of the field, he throws it down field past LaRon for a TD...

Better yet the TD pass gets thrown to Dawan Landry.

I couldnt agree more. Balt is a solid franchise thats a playoff contenter every year, unlike his previous team that's constantly chasing the next big thing which results in being a consistent loser.

I really think with Zorn's help Flacco will go to the next level as a QB.

Saunders was for all practical purposes handcuffed by Gibbs and Brunell though.

At home in 2012... hopefully we'll be a contender by then.

Hope it works out for him in Baltimore, and like someone else said, its nice that he doesnt have to move his family... I wish good luck to JZ, except when we play Baltimore again

I agree, I think we saw during the playoff run in 2007 with Todd Collins, what Suanders offense really could be like...

Yes, Saunders was handcuffed by having JC as his QB. It was amazing how much better the O performed with a QB that knew the system, could make fast decisions and get the ball out.

I haven't checked, but I can only assume he's won like five super bowls since then.

Re: Zorn finds Job.
 
Look for the Ravens to only get better in the years ahead. Zorn will likely take Flacco to the next level, and that offense was already making strides.

Congrats and good luck Coach Zorn, this job will be a much better fit for you.

Baltimore is feeling Zorn's glow:

[QUOTE]Ravens offensive coordinator Cam Cameron called Zorn "the premier quarterback coach in the NFL for the last 15 years." Ravens Super Bowl-winning quarterback Trent Dilfer proclaimed him "the Butch Harmon of quarterbacks coaches," referring to the renowned golf instructor who served as Tiger Woods' longtime coach.[/QUOTE]

but Zorn is staying humble
[QUOTE]"[B]I'm not God's gift to coaching[/B]," Zorn said. "I have to earn the right to be heard. I have to say things that they'll believe."[/QUOTE]

I do find that quote absolutely hilarious though!

You're not?! :eek: JZ is a nice guy and a good QB coach. He was just in a little over his head here as far as being a HC.

Very funny that the last two people that ran our offenses, Zorn and Saunders are now working in Baltimore. I bet those two have already shared some funny stories.

Well first of all he hasn't had a OC job since he left here. Saunders is a proven guy. KC had a top 5 offense when he coached there. He just didn't have the personel to run his offense while in Washington.

GTripp0012 05-07-2010 12:41 PM

Re: Zorn finds Job.
 
He was the OC in St. Louis in 2008. That Rams team put up 232 points, or about 2/3 of those underachievers on the 2007 Redskins (334), and about 4/5 as many as that "west coast" Redskins offense of 08 (265).

well i don't think it matters who was running the rams offense the last few years.

I think his point was that Al hasn't proved much anywhere with any personnel anytime recently.
