There's not a great deal of difference between the patience of Snyder and that of the FW fan. I've said it before, Snyder expects his HC to make bricks out of straw and won't even give him time to do that. An 8-8 finish for a first yr. head coach with a limited resume is not a horrible effort.

Rather than admit the team needs help in critical areas across the board, it's just so much easier to blame it on the coach. When things don't go well someone has to take the fall, right now the fall guy is Zorn, deserving or not.

In today's NFL, how many coaches anywhere would get more than 3-4 years to get at least a playoff game? I'm not positive, but I would guess on average it's 3 years...and we're above average

LOL. I guess it's all how you look at it. Our perception may be that we are above average but our performance over the past 10 years would say otherwise.

Not many, and it explains why coaches are fired all the time. Good coaches have good players, or at least the players make the coach look good. Have you ever seen a bad coach coaching a good/winning team? It's more often than not the other way around.

The WCO is fine but the playcalling is the problem. The same plays over and over again isn't going to work. Zorn's WCO/playcalling is the problem

I like the Titanic analogy.

Perhaps they should hand out life-jackets at the next home game, because if we don't beat the Chiefs things are going to get awful choppy.
