I dont think that we need a coach that was actually hired to be the o coordinator then got his o coor duties taken away.

Kind of feel bad for Zorn. No I don't think he is a good HC or anything of that nature but man alive that whole thing was screwed up from the start with him and the skins. First he was hired as OC then promoted to HC and had only ever been a QBC. Kind of how Jerry was tempted with Garrett but did not pull the trigger. Also his opening PC to the team and fans where he screwed up the colors. Then getting his OC duties stripped, now he has to coach while he know he was not going to be back. I guess the only good thing for him is getting out of that dysfunctional situation and still getting paid when he leaves.

Either way he seems like a good person that was just not up to task.

I feel bad for Zorn and he needs a well deserved vacation to get his head right.

That Skins situation really isn't Zorn's fault at all

that says nothing about his coaching ability.

It says everything about the people he works for.

Just like Sean Payton in NY, he had his duties taken away and by Jim Fassel. Fassel cant get a sniff in the nfl and payton is one of the brightest minds in the league.

Zorn will be a good offensive assitant in some capacity for someone next year...maybe cleveland if they clean house, but otherwise you look at teams with west coast offenses and possible openings like Houston, or the usual suspects in the holmgren tree like philly and by extension green bay.

Even possibly a place like San Francisco.

I think Zorn will have to overcome whatever level of punch-drunk PTSD he escapes his current job with before he's of great use to anyone else.

I'd think with how Romo's been playing, a sad sack (and face it, quite a bit of a nut before he ever got the Skins job) QB coach wouldn't be at the top of Jerry's wish list.

Do we need a doormat? If so, bring him in for an interview.

How is he a doormat? Because he took a demotion? Danny tried to get him to quit and he didn't bite. Only a ******* would quit and get Danny off the hook for the $15 mill he owes him.

Money should never replace human dignity. Snyder cut his balls off and Zorn stood there and took it. If Wade did that everyone would be all over him.

Say JG does become our HC. Then it wouldn't be so bad to have someone on our staff that knows the foreskins inside and out.

I don't feel sorry for him. I still recall that nauseating cheap George Allen "hip-hip hooray" from last season.

He did look rather tired, old and haggard last night and he is a young coach relatively speaking.
