The kid Johnson they put in seemed to have some quickness and a rocket arm, I'm guessing he will eventually be the starter. But it's going to be a long process (cause they are more than a season away) in Tampa.

As far as the Skins go, is this really a suprise? They haven't addressed a punchless offense in seasons. While Haynesworth will probably help the defense, the offense continues to sputter and is in dire need of an overhaul. Zorn is definitely on borrowed time, but I'm guessing it's going to be a couple of weeks before they ax him. Then again with Snyder being the owner, there's a chance they left him in Detroit.

every experiment this ******* has had for coaches has failed miserably. the lions are no longer the laughing stock of the nfl, the skins are, and now danny boy can see it clear as day.
zorn's gotta be out, gotta be. doubtful they get someone off the street to replace him either, i can see blache being the interim coach and danny boy yet again going out and getting another "name" in the off season. i mean lets face the facts, zorn was NEVER in line for the head coaching spot in the first place. Him and blache came into run the offense and defense, but when daniel son couldn't find a coach after interviewing 10+ (tons of big names interviewed for this spot, pete carroll, greg williams, jim fassell, jim mora, etc.) for the position he just promoted zorn. When they jerked williams off the way they did, it was pretty much the last straw for me, the guy stayed b/c the franchise had him next in line behind gibbs, thats the only reason why he stayed (he had other offers that im sure of). And sure as sh!t when gibbs steps down, that word isn't worth sh!t.

having him and vinny cerrato in the front office could be the worst combo in the history of the nfl, vinny brings them in, daniel pays them, they do nothing for the team, they leave with a pocket full of cash, its been a pretty solid cycle since danny got here.

never thought i would say this, but i'm embarrassed to call myself a skins fan now a days, snyder has ruined this franchise

sorry for the vent

I have a hard time believing Campbell is a starting QB in the NFL. He's horrible.

I don't think he's played bad this season. Today he's been horrible, not that have blocked anybody either and given him time to throw! But the play calling by Zorn is a joke! They still are having problems getting off the field on third down as well, they are very luck not to be down worse than 10-0!

maybe the play calling would work if he had people who could make the plays.

six head coaches in the last ten years, god knows how many coordinators. it's not the coaching that's the problem. the whole program is the problem, and we all know who's responsible. jerra jones jr.

That very fact is why I feel Jason Campbell has played alot better than the damn systems he's been asked to learn over his time here. He stunk in the first half today, but in the second half he made plays, including with his feet that help us get a win. I'm not happy with all the moves that Snyder has made either, nor am I convinced that Zorn is the answer. If he would have only been named offensive coach would the team be any better, because he is calling the plays now, which suck! If he is to keep his job, the first move he may have to make is bringing in someone to run the offense. Then again, if the system is changed once again, that may send us into a total rebuilding mode, which may be ok, but then we will really need to be patient with the team. Either way, I will remain a loyal fan, and hope things improve soon or later.
