Re: ARE: "Zorn never had a real chance"
Another thing that i'm surprised nobody has talked about was the fact that nobody in the organization would support Zorn's decisions.
For example, it's been known that Zorn wanted to bench certain players, but he was told in no uncertain terms who he could play. We know he wanted to discipline portis for not practicing and refusing to workout and stuff, but Portis was always in Snyder's pocket so it never happened.
The bottom line is that he really didn't have a chance here. Cerrato already appointed the roster and Zorn knew he could not make changes to it as he wanted. Very sad really, but that has been the state of this franchise for the past 11 years, hopefully it is now turned around.
