Re: Zorn Fired

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.

How do I know? I usually hang out on other teams fan sites and mock them but pathetic use of time aside you figure 3rd year guy, coming back into the same system for another year, the addition of Boldin/Stallworth/Houshmanzadeh to throw to, 2 starting quality backs and a good OL, an impactful defense - I mean what more do you want. I live in Baltimore Im familiar with the Ravens. I'm a Skins fan familiar with the Zorn debacle. Ive watched Cam Cameron since he arrived in Bmore- HAVE YOU???

You look at Flacco's numbers and while his TD went up, INt's went down, YET his passing yards remained low around 3200-3500 yds.

I almost reject your question. You see there is a team called the Ravens if your not familiar. This conversation sorta needs a prerequisite of Zorn/Ravens/Cameron/Flacco/Skins- to which Im qualified not too sure about where your coming from on this.

LOL..........yeah well, I was kinda looking more for facts ...like his yards per catch had dropped(about the same) or less TD's(up) then before or not finding the open man. but as someone else asked are they canning the recievers coach also? One thing for sure players like him so I'm still trying to understand how you think Zorn stunted Flacco's growth as a QB?

Re: Zorn Fired

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.

Re: Zorn Fired

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...

Re: Zorn Fired

You guys realize that Flacco had a better season last year than he did in '09 right? I forgot who said it but I think they said it best when talking about Zorn: He actually did a good job as the qb coach in B-more but he has a difference in philosophy with Cam Cameron, which prob. led to his departure.

Re: Zorn Fired

Yeah I think in this case they just wanted to give more autonomy to Cameron, which makes sense. Zorn will catch on somewhere else.

Re: Zorn Fired

People, please. Zorn is a very good QB coach. Look how he developed Matt Hasselback. Joe Flacco looked pretty good to me this year. As what others had said, it's more or less a difference of philosophy between Zorn and Cameron. And after watching that game against the Steelers, I'd probably fire Cam Cameron if I had a choice, but that's purely a different topic.

Zorn's a good guy, good position coach. Any team would be lucky to have him on the coaching staff.

I was surprised they were able to co-exist with three former head coaches working together on the offense. What's the saying? Too many Indians, not enough Chiefs?

Re: Zorn Fired

Poor Z-Man, he'll have to put his house on the market! He was lucky to be fired as skins head coach but not have to relocate for his next job. Unless U. Maryland hires him, or he becomes Georgetown's head coach, he'll be moving.

You better show up at moderator OTAs. You slipping.... Gotta stay in top offseason form. Don't want one of these new upstarts to overtake you on the depth chart.
