cubanl81 Posted October 24, 2008 Share Posted October 24, 2008 Hey if Zorn is right and MK can get healthy after the bye, and produce. Zorn is going to look like a genius. If not he'll IR him and get him ready for next week. I like that Zorn had a freudian slip. I think if we keep playing the way we have I don't think playoffs are too far fetched.

GibbsFactor Posted October 24, 2008 Share Posted October 24, 2008 Why can't we talk about paloffs? We've made it two of three years and are in position now. Stop thinking these are the Skins of the past. We've turned the corner with this current crop. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
No_Pressure Posted October 24, 2008 Share Posted October 24, 2008 I'm pretty sure if you're a head coach and you don't expect to make the playoffs until it is statistically impossible, you're a pretty bad head coach. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jofizz Posted October 24, 2008 Share Posted October 24, 2008 Oh no, we're doomed! It really doesn't matter unless the mediotes get a hold of it, if that happens the jinx is on. As I sit here watching the World Series, Fox 5 aired their news preview with a headline saying something along the lines of "Week 8 and already talking playoffs? Wait till you hear Jim Zorn's slip up on camera." Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hunterx Posted October 24, 2008 Share Posted October 24, 2008 He's the head coach of an NFL team that is in contention right now. If you don't plan for later in the season...whether its the stretch run or playoffs, then you won't be successful. They game plan for the current game, but they are thinking about the future, too. Do you think he hasn't thought about addressing certain positions next year? Do you think he hasn't thought about cutting reps back from Portis to rest him for the stretch and playoffs---not to mention CP's future? I'm glad he's planning for now but thinking about the future. He's got all of his bases covered. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He's got all of his bases covered. thats all fine and dandy... Zorn could have thought to himself that this team is a lock for the superbowl, as long as its too himself. But saying it in front of camera is not really a good idea... though honestly i dont care, i think zorn was just being realistic, and he did say later on in the interview that the redskins have to earn the right... so its all good Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

truskinsfan18 Posted October 24, 2008 Share Posted October 24, 2008 Malcolm Kelly must be a really special talent, if he can be hurt so much and the coach still believes in him. I'm saying he must be a beast if we are still giving im a chance. He has not shown even a fraction of that confidence in Devin Thomas. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hubbs Posted October 24, 2008 Share Posted October 24, 2008 Confidence and positivity are great, but that's something Zorn probably shouldn't be saying out loud. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BuddyLeeGhostHunter Posted October 24, 2008 Share Posted October 24, 2008 Doesn't bother me any. John Harbaugh of the Ravens said he was going to win the Superbowl. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Skins24 Posted October 24, 2008 Share Posted October 24, 2008 Beating the Lions does nothing. After we beat the Giants at home (after the bye I think) then I will be confident about the playoffs. We need to beat NY so we can at the very least split the division with them, if not win more divisional games then them. I dont trust going in as a wildcard. We need a break the first week of the playoffs, and we need not get ahead of ourselves. Dallas. We play Dallas after the bye. We don't play the Giants until a couple weeks after (we could be 9-2 then ) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
headhunter39 Posted October 24, 2008 Share Posted October 24, 2008 this is the mindset we need....of course we are gonna make the playoffs. its like the season is just something to get through til january Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SkinsAllDay34 Posted October 24, 2008 Share Posted October 24, 2008 Malcolm Kelly must be a really special talent, if he can be hurt so much and the coach still believes in him. I'm saying he must be a beast if we are still giving im a chance. He has not shown even a fraction of that confidence in Devin Thomas. Yea i think the same. But Devin is still raw as a receiver and it might take him longer to adjust. He already has learned PI and hasnt done a real pass interference since the cards game (the philly game doesnt count to me). Kelly is more "polished" as a receiver and can catch anything thrown at him. Zorn must be REALLY high on him because he would have IRed him if not. They are giving him a real opportunity to rest instead of him trying to go out there and push himself and swelling occurs. Hopefully his knee responds well and he helps us kick Dallas' ass back to Little D. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Taylor4Life Posted October 24, 2008 Share Posted October 24, 2008 He meant he'll be ready for the paloffs. those start soon. LOL, hopefully we don't go to the "paloffs" this year. Those always start after baffling mid season losing streaks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Seabee1973 Posted October 24, 2008 Share Posted October 24, 2008 If we beat the Lions?If we don't beat the Lions it would be the 2nd time we lost to the current worst team in the league. I wonder how many times that has happened? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Let's just follow the Zorn-path and see where it leads us. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
