I don't think we can discount the fact that Jason Campbell may not be suited for the WCO. Gibbs drafted him for his strong arm and deep throwing abilities downfield.

If the WCO is all about the QB making quick decisions, yet we all criticize him for checking down too quickly, then that's a dilemma. They say this system takes a while to learn. And it may be that it'll take every bit of two full years or more for Campbell to get this offense down pat.

Then there's the question of Jim Zorn's abilities as a tactician, a gameplanner, his instincts for in-game adjustments, and his knack for playcalling. Not of which are solid, and are testament to the fact that Zorn is still learning the basic in's and out's of this job.

That's why I really wonder if Vinny and Danny truly understood the magnitude of bringing in Jim Zorn and implementing this system. It doesn't look like this was the design of people who believe we are just one step away from greatness, and who operate with a 'win now right now' philosophy.
