The Maury Povich show would be more appropriate for this guy. I think he would like to have some paternity tests done to find the real father of this team.

So you start a thread asking a question if the front office is running the team then you answer the question by say there is no way for any of us to know. So to answer your question. I have know way of knowing.

This thread is an epic fail on so many levels.

I don't think zorn is a bad coach. Was Gibbs a bad coach? I frankly don't know what it is because we complain about the same things every year...

Agreed, time to move on to other things. The nit-picking all week long after one lost game is truly insane, keeps the board cluttered with basically the same old stuff. Enough already.

It's Wednesday. Has the panic ended? Can I come out of the bunker and have actual discussion or are the chicken littles still running around banging into each other while they scream that the sky is falling?

We lost. We looked bad. We get it.

Re: Is Zorn just a bad leader or the bigger issues of his coaching coming from the front office

I think you can make a very solid case that Zorn should not be a head coach in the NFL, at least, not yet. Remember, Zorn was hired to be the offensive coordinator, not the head coach. He only became head coach because the Snyderrato's favored candidates [Steve Mariucci, Jim Fassel] evoked such dread in the local fan base and media that management shifted gears. Unable to find a big-name coach [like Bill Cowher] who would work for a fool of a GM, Snyderrato fell back on Zorn. He wasn't supposed to be the head coach of the Redskins and, as far as I know, no other team was pursuing him to be a head coach.

Now, it could turn out that Zorn becomes a very good NFL head coach. We don't know yet. But a person could be forgiven for thinking Zorn is in over his head.

Can you make a "very solid case," or do we not know yet? You can't really have it both ways.

By the way, the hiring process logically does not reflect Zorn's ability to coach. Vince Lombardi, hired through a fractured process, would still be Vince Lombardi. Steve Spurrier, hired through a perfect process, is still Steve Spurrier.
