Fired?

It's only his first season- give him some time.

Not all rookie coaches have a great first year- for every Miami or Atlanta, there is another team out there that has some growing pains.

Redskins fired a rookie coach in 1993


It can happen especially if they finiah 7-9

That rookie coach in 1993 went 3-13.

A possible 7-9 finish is lightyears better than going 3-13.

Zorn is not going to be fired after one season. He didn't do that bad, they just sucked the last few games. If he was 3-13 in a BAD division, he might be. But they'll be 7-9 or 8-8 in a tough division, and after one season he won't be fired.

There's no rule that says that any first-year coach with a bad first year automatically must be fired!

When you are 7-3 and finish 7-9 then you don't look like a good motivator as a coach

Besides, Joe Gibbs went 6-10 in his first season as Redskins coach in 1981. He wasn't fired, and look what happened to him- he became a coaching legend.

I agree.

Try being 10-6 last year and 4-12 the next...yep, that's the Cleveland Steamers season.

Crennel failed to have the Steamers go to the Playoffs in 4 years, that's when a coach should be sacked! (It should've happened in 2006 when the Steamers couldn't even win a game in their division!)

He's not getting fired- not all first-year coaches win at least 9 games.

It's called growing pains.

Gibbs was 8-8 in 81 after starting 0-5 and the next year they won the SB.

I still think he gets fired because of how good of a start the skins had. They were 6-2 and went 1-8 in their last 8 games?-lol You can't tell me that is not grounds for termination.

The Redskins did much better than most people predicted.

Just because a team makes the playoffs the previous year doesn't mean they are SUPPOSED to win at least 8 games.

Anyway, back on topic, I am disappointed in these Skins. I am not putting the blame on one person or a few. I blame THE WHOLE DAMN TEAM INCLUDING THE COACHING STAFF. You also have to start at top, It starts with Daniel Snyder. He needs some front office people, and Vinny Cerrato is not the answer!

Like what?

QB, RB, WR, TE are solid.

IMO, they need a better placekicker and they must revamp the offensive line.

Jason Campbell doesn't turn over the ball or make any or many mistakes, like ROMO does. He is not the problem. Sitting Clinton Portis down was one of them, and they had a lot of tough, little losses that add up to frustration, much like the Eagles up and down season.

Eagles haven't lost to an awful opponent:

Cowboys, Bears, Ravens, Giants, Redskins.

Not exactly losing to the Bengals or Rams.

Philly may have tied the Bengals, but at least they didn't LOSE to Cincy!

Very true. That's what I'm saying as well. It's just, frustrating close losses to great teams frustrates me. Especially when we lose because of Andy's horrendous play calling, bad throws by McNabb, or just stupidity on the field. There's a level of smartness and awareness that has to come, even when playing & trying to win football teams, especially vs. the great teams.
