Thing is maybe the Zorn bashers have a point GTripp. The guy might be in over his head. Snyder and co got rid of Norv after only one playoff appearance in what 10 seasons? It was Norv's turn to go. Marty was shown the door because of a power struggle. Dumb move on Snyder's part, but he is the owner and if he doesn't want the coach to be the GM also, that is his business. Spurrier quit as did Gibbs, so in actuality Snyder really only messed up with Marty. Zorn should be given another year in my opinion, but I am not Snyder. As for JC, right now he is ranked 13th in passing yards, not bad, but his post bye performance has been ho hum. Wasn't he like top 5 during the 6-2 run? I also say give him all of '09 to prove himself, and if '09 sucks, both guys should be packing. It sucks that this stuff isn't panning out, but Snyder really wasted a lot of time in hiring gimmick coaches after firing Marty. Spurrier was the exotic experiment that supposedly was going to change the NFL and that fizzled. Gibbs II was a nice gimmick to get the fans excited again, but that too fell short on expectations. Lightning doesn't strike twice. I can feel Snyder's dilemna though. His big question is does Zorn have theright stuff to be HC or is he just a perpetual assistant. One more year will tell the tale, but Snyder might not want to wait one more season to find out. I mean this team has collapsed already. If it gets uglier Snyder might just have to pull the plug on good ole Zorny.
