Ravens fire Zorn; Cameron to handle quarterbacks | AP Outdoors - The News Tribune

Zorn's release came after a seven-hour meeting this week with Cameron and coach John Harbaugh in which they questioned him about Joe Flacco's development this season, a league source said.

I thought Zorn was on his way out for a job in Cleveland or back in Seattle anyway. I wonder if the Ravens are going to fire their WR coach given those huge drops in the playoff game by Boldin and TJ Housh.

That's unfortunate.......... right????? Am I supposed to feel bad?????? At all????!??!

Good riddance.

SFREDSKIN · 01-27-2011, 10:36 PM

I guess he'll end up in Cleveland or Seattle.

Ruhskins · 01-27-2011, 10:37 PM

I don't get the blind hate for Zorn. Dude was over his head and the fools that hired him should get the blame. He's not blameless, but he wasn't the only problem in this team.

It's not his fault that Joe Flacco sucks. To use the Vince Young analogy. In 2009 Joe Flacco was 3-7 against teams with a .500 or more record, in 2010, he's 5 and 4 against teams above 500(including the playoffs). So in 2 years, he's 8-11 against teams above 500. That cleary has nothing to do with Zorn. JC has his best statistical year under Zorn. He may suck as a head coach, but he's a good QB coach IMO.

Statistically Flacco had a better year too. Someone mentioned that there was a difference in philosophy with the OC, that doesn't mean Zorn sucks a position coach.

Campbell actually had a higher TD%, higher YPA, and lower INT% this season.

Not to mention some of Campbell's production last year came against San Diego's backups.

Apparently it is necessary to talk about Zorn and Campbell over and over and over again and over again.

Dread-Skin · 01-28-2011, 12:34 AM

Zorn probably stunted Flacco's growth but the Off Cord. Cam Cameron wasn't remotely competent after week 6 lets say. So while Zorn was a pud- he sorta seems like the scapegoat for Cams failures.

Against the Steelers in the playoffs the play calling on the goal line sucked.IMO the OC should of got the axe.Troy Smith would of been a better QB with the Ravens if he got a chance with the talent they have.

SolidSnake84 · 01-28-2011, 06:47 AM

I sort of feel bad for Zorn, but the more you hear about him, the more it seems that he isnt able to do his job.

he's been fired 2 straight times now. For his sake i hope he can go back to seattle and finish out his career...
