Jim Zorn - New Commander HC *Merged*

[odog422]

If he's such a good coach, he'd be the one who is the "coach in waiting," to take over the Seahawks job in 09 instead of Mora.

Quarterbacks coach for the Seahawks from 2001-08.

I don't know, I find this extremely telling. The last 7 years in the organization as QB coach, yet not in consideration for Homgren's successor.

Guys, these so-called football geniuses here in D.C. on Fox 5 suck. It's like listening to the ESPN dorks. Overrated, talk to fast think about what they are saying first, and speculate with no foundation.

I'm going to like working up here on weekends next Fall. Someone tell me what radio station to call in on

I thought he had Dallas ties also. Kind of a fog right now about it. Either he was on the Dallas roster and left unprotected for Seattle's initial draft...or he was packaged to Seattle in the Dorsett trade...or I just don't have any idea what I'm talking about...which is most likely the case.

I looked it up, he was cut by the Cowboys 2 days before the season opener. He was then signed by Seattle as a free agent. He did appear in pre-season games for us.

LOL!

I come from the early 70's "Far out Man" days which used it for anything. Kinda like how "dude" is overused nowadays


Thanks "girl"

 

[Kilyin]

abersonc = Zorn?

Why else would he be the only one trying to defend this blunder? That or he's just a complete toolbag.

 

[Teague31]

they could have hired rich kottite and the trolls over at ES would be marveling about Danny's genius.

I figured that's what you meant but I couldnt help but to seize the moment. :laugh2:

BTW, SportsTalk 980 is pretty interesting. The weekdays is the time most people usually call in since the focus is on local sports. Weekends is nationally syndicated radio. But I must warn you, weekdays, they have an affinity for hanging up on most Dallas fans.

Ya, at least he is an unknown quantity and may be a good head coach. It may all work out DESPITE our idiot owner.

I seriously doubt it but keep HOPE alive....:laugh2:

 

[Mansta54]

Not sure how you are coming to this conclusion. There was a two hour special on Commanders Radio up here and the reaction was overwhelmingly positive. The reaction on ES is similar.

This crap!! I live here and been watching the news and listening to my friends are are Foreskin fans and they HATE the move and the HATE the midget. Don't believe the spin that the Foreskin fans on this board are giving cause it aint true...

980WTEM AM or sportstalk980.com

When I got on here, I really really genuinely was wondering what you thought about it. I can see by all the other posts asking...that others also cared what you thought about the hire.

Oh wait...nobody cares what you think about it because nobody cares about you or the irrelevant franchise that you cheer for. In fact, we are all laughing at you because your favorite team just went from being classified as "garbage" to "nuclear waste".

Now go cry, and then go back to the ES website with your tail between your legs and ask them take you back.

Nice work!!!!

Snyder couldn't find anyone who wanted that job, plain and simple. He had no choice but to promote Zorn.

THat team is pathetic.

That's it in a Nutshell.

listening to 1310 The ticket in Dallas, I've learned from them how to draw those local generic sports dorks in, and lay a "Baby Arm" or "Go Cowboys" on them before they have time to hit the dump button.

Wow the Danny has come full circle of Jerry he just Hired his Dave Campo

 

[Hostile]

Yesterday was my daughter's 15th birthday and I wasn't online. I am literally just learning about this right now. I got a better present than she did.

Has Zorn ever even been a play caller as a Coach? I honestly don't know.

Risky move. Quite frankly I don't get it. I immediately went to ES to see what they think. There's a poll asking if the move makes them "Zorny?" Over 80% of the people voting think this is a great hire.

I don't know what's more unreal, the poll results or the hire.

Well, for one I actually THINK about decisions rather than just assume that anything Snyder does is moronic. Since Danny took over the Skins have had about the same record as Dallas and he's taken the value of the franchise through the roof. So he's doing something right.

Again, the "never a coordinator" issue is stupid. A guy who has been on a solid successful staff as a position coach for a several times over all-pro QB can be just as solid a pick as someone with a year or two as a coordinator.

I am not spinning anything. I am just relaying what I heard on the special edition of Commanders Radio last night. Kevin Sheehan (the host) reported how surprised he was how "overwhelmingly positive" the feedback was. If you read my posts you will know that I am no homer.

Truth is, we have no idea what kind of head coach he is going to be. Just like we have no idea what kind of head coach Jason Garrett is going to be. I am luke warm on the hire but think the process was ridiculous.

Most of the fans are more relieved than anything that it wasn't Fassel (which I really don't understand to be honest).

Jim Zorn, huh? I think Little Danny has surpassed JJ and is now in AL DAVIS territory! This was clearly a desparation move as it seems that no one wanted to step into that large pile of cow manure known as the Washington Commanders!!
