The similarities between this regime and the Cerrato/Zorn regime (if you could call it that) are pretty mind-blowing.
1) Big FA signings that don't make sense, and don't have any impact. Cerrato/Zorn became infamous for Fat Albert. BA/Shanny, on the other hand, signed a handful of players that altogether add up to more than the Haynesworth contract, and have made even less impact. The difference being this regime is given a pass by most of the fan base, at least up to this point.
2) Bizarre play-calling and play-design, that some try to explain as genius now, whereas Zorn took a ton of shit for it.
3) Poor discipline and preparation, as evidenced in two games already where players just lost it (St. Louis and Pittsburgh).
They're eerily similar side by side, but again this regime is constantly given the benefit of the doubt despite results as poor as Zorn achieved.
