If he though the defensive coordinator was an idiot (gregg williams...ha!)
Then he could have tried play action to see if he could have suckered them in...of course they'd be looking for the bookleg TE...so...something, anything would have been better....I would have gone for a double TE slant..if it wasn't there, I'd do a late flat relase to the RB.
A run was flat out stupid and was nothing less than playing not to lose....yet again.
Zorn is aggressive at the wrong time and is conservative at idiotic times.
Duh!!

Still you are disregarding the intangible that were outside of our control. I'm not defending Zorn for the crappy record we're in, but overall he coached this team to within a good kick from beating one of the best team in football.
Now it is up to the coaching staff and eventually the front office to fix the wrongs that came up during this game (coverage issue, kicking, etc.,. etc.)
