Reply With Quoteyes, I would fire him...he's got a substantial amount of talent on his team (although he has no real QB).
Then again, I'm not a skins fan...so BEAR DOWN!

Should Jim Zorn get fired?
After latest loss, Zorn questioned about future
By HOWARD FENDRICH (AP) – 31 minutes ago
LANDOVER, Md. — Jim Zorn stood alone on the sideline Sunday, his headset off, his arms folded across his chest, hearing the dwindling crowd's boos and watching the seconds tick away on his Washington Redskins' latest loss to a previously winless team.
Zorn began his postgame news conference with a loud, lengthy sigh into the microphone. And the coach kept on sighing as he discussed Washington's 14-6 setback against the Kansas City Chiefs, which dropped the Redskins to 2-4 this season and 4-10 over their past 14 games.
"I've got to be better. And it really irritates me. Truly irritates me," Zorn said. "And I'm just not going to rest until I get that taken care of."
The heat on Zorn is sure to increase leading up to Washington's next outing: a high-profile Monday night game Oct. 26 against the Philadelphia Eagles, which is followed by the Redskins' bye week.
"Winning would help," linebacker London Fletcher said. "We haven't performed up to our abilities to help coach Zorn out."
As it is, the Redskins are the first team in NFL history to face six consecutive winless opponents, but they haven't managed to take advantage.
In Week 3, the Redskins lost to the Detroit Lions, 0-2 at the time and riding a 19-game losing streak. Last weekend, the Redskins lost to the Carolina Panthers, who were 0-3 entering that game.

The Redskins have been mediocre since I recall living in DC in 1997.

How many coaches have their been? I've lost count:
Nor Turner, Spurrier, Jorgonsen, Schottenheimer, Zorn?
The Skins have intense fans, that's for sure.
Lot of things go into making a winning team.It's an accurate statement that our current spending will not be increasing the debt We've stopped spending money that we don't have.

He just may get fired.
Synder, like the Angelos of the Baseball Orioles have taken a once proud franchise and destroyed them.

Zorn was told after a 14-6 setback to the previously winless Kansas City Chiefs that he will not call offensive plays anymore.

The Redskins are a mess. They remind me of the Mets...the more they spend, the worse they get.

I am thinking the same way. Originally Posted by I Are Baboon

Or, did he hand over the reigns for scouting, drafting, GM to others, and step back?
Big $$$, does not equal success in the NFL, that is for sure.It's an accurate statement that our current spending will not be increasing the debt We've stopped spending money that we don't have.

Colt is on Injured Reserve....out for the season....too bad cause I was hoping he would go far especially after helping Hawaii get some WAC recognition while he was here..... Originally Posted by Rubes11

he wouldn't have the big WR's that he can just throw the ball up to and they will go get it for him i think he would end up throwing alot of INT's and the O-Line wouldn't be able to keep him upright. Originally Posted by sara 5'9 195 flint fury football #47 RB/S 40in vert.
