Re: How is Jim Zorn doing so far?

What is this 10th grade english class?

I guess if Gibbs wrote a 5 page essay on how to win in the NFL he would have done better?? Say what?

just making a mention that some head coaches think its important to sit down and actually think about how they are going to win in the nfl, not just making up individual plays and schemes. zorn, before he was named head coach, wrote out his philosophies and long term game plan (head coach manual) if and when he was named a head coach and i think it will help the team have an identity and direction (it didnt hurt in the interviews with snyder and vinny either, they were impressed)

and yes maybe if gibbs had developed a thought-out gameplan on how to win NFL games year in and year out we wouldnt have gone from smashmouth, to al saunders playbook, to zone blocking, to al saunders calls plays until we reach the red zone, etc.

point i was trying to make is that i hope and have a feeling from what ive seen from zorn that he has an idea of what he wants to do with this team and i like it. no need to take my opinion and generalize it to an elementary level. yeah i should have just posted "zorns undefeated 0-0 baby!!"

whatever.

go skins!

This is the first that I have read about Zorn and him having writen out how to suceed as a coach in the NFL. Do you have a link about this and how do we know that Gibbs did not have a game plan on how to build a team?
