Vinny: Jim, if I get JT, can you tell me we'll make the playoffs? If you tell me we'll definitely make the playoffs, then OK. If not, then this may be a bad idea.

Jim Zorn: ?????

Nothing like hedging your bets. Unfortunately VC needs to make the best decision based on the information at hand and the current situation. If he has JT's word that he'll play at least two more seasons, there is no reason not to make this happen, based on our situation at DE.

Exactly. There is no guarantee, I think the Patriots in the Super Bowl were as close to a guarantee as I've ever seen in the NFL and even they lost. Plus, how will Zorn know if we're going to make the playoffs before they even finish the first day of training camp? Heck, we didn't even know we were going to make the playoffs last year until AFTER we beat Dallas in the last game of the year.
