You can't count 2008 because Hasselbeck and most of the WRs were shredded by injuries, but every other year they have had a very good passing offense with, as you say, middle of the road guys.

For the record, their WR coach is right now is Keith Gibertson . He was new to their staff this year. I don't know who it was in previous years when Zorn was there. In light of that fact, I would say no to bringing in Gilbertson.

If anyone can find out who their WRs coach was when Zorn was there, I'd love to know. I poked around for a while but couldn't find him.
Ah. I thought it was the same guy all those years and having "middle of the road" talent finally caught up to him when Hasslebeck went down. The SEA WR coach from that era may be woth a look because those WRs haven't really produced outside of their days at SEA. I don't know if it's because of his coaching or because Masslebeck is such a great QB. It's similar to the Pats situation til they brought in Welker and Moss. Their average WRs' good numbers were a by product of a great QB.
