Zorn.. Something is off with him. If he's treating vets and rookies all the same, I think I'd feel a little disrespected too. It's almost like giving a promotion to the entry level Joe, that's been working at your job for a few months, while you've been busting your ass for years.

Maybe Zorn will be able to adjust in the last following weeks, but you definitely don't wanna end the year on bad terms with your players. As for Portis, I have no problem with him airing dirty laundry, so long as it doesn't stick a knife in the team morale.

You'd think T.O was playing for the Skins judging from some people's opinions here..
Exactly. And we continue to compare this to what if Gibbs was here? First of all, in his last season, Gibbs wasn't even calling the plays..or was he? This isn't the end of the world. Zorn benched his best player and the guy didn't like it.

I'll bet if Zorn had benched CP but the Skins are like 9-3, Portis wouldn't give a rat's ass. It's the losing and blame shifting that has Portis ticked more than anything. I don't think he's finger pointing at all.
