So you're telling me that Zorn, a rookie coach who went 8-8 in one of the toughest conferences in the league, was worst than Jack Del Rio (5-11), Herm Edwards (2-14), Romeo Crennel (4-12), Marvin Lewis (4-11-1), Mike McCarthy (6-10), Scott Linehan/Jim Haslett (2-14), Lane Kiffin/Tom Cable (5-11), and Mike Holmgren (4-12)?

Basing off of how the Skins offense performed in the 2nd half as of right now yes hes one of the worst Head Coaches in the NFL. The problem imo is last season was his first calling plays in the NFL. He looked good early on but into the 2nd half when teams knew everything he was doing he couldnt adjust. If you cant adjust to what the defense does as a offensive playcaller thats a huge problem.

I do realize he was a rookie Head Coach last season. I also realize he can improve in his 2nd season. Thats why I said he has the potenial to grow into the HC position. As of right now though I have to say hes one of the worst coaches in the NFL until he can show me he can adjust when a defense locks into what he is doing.

So know offensive line had anything to do with it?

The offensive line had problems and Campbell had problems with his accuracy as the season went along. I do think the biggest problem the Skins had in the 2nd half of 2008 though was Zorns inability to adjust to what defenses threw at him.
