FinalBeast Posted February 15, 2011 Share Posted February 15, 2011 Jim Zorn was fired by the Ravens after the 2010 season. The team that lost at home to the Ravens in the playoffs apparently was impressed with his work. We’re hearing that Zorn will be joining the Kansas City Chiefs. Zorn presumably will fill the currently vacant role of quarterbacks coach, serving as the primary buffer between quarterback Matt Cassel and coach Todd Haley. Whether and to what extent Zorn — or anyone, for that matter — can coexist with Haley remains to be seen. http://profootballtalk.nbcsports.com/2011/02/15/zorn-set-to-join-chiefs/ Edit: It is confirmed now that he will be the quarterbacks coach.

Koolblue13 Posted February 15, 2011 Share Posted February 15, 2011 That's a shame, I like the Chiefs and thought they'd be pretty good next year. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Conn Posted February 15, 2011 Share Posted February 15, 2011 5 years from now, or when his career is over and he needs some cash, I want a tell-all book from Zorn about his time here. Spill ALL the dirt. Just leave out the "oh gosh darn its" and the "well golly gees". Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

pjfootballer Posted February 15, 2011 Share Posted February 15, 2011 Norv used to say alot of "gollys" and "goshes" also. Zorn should write his biography and title it, "The best QB coach in the history of the NFL." Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kubstix Posted February 15, 2011 Share Posted February 15, 2011 Why all the hate with Zorn? Baltimore has always been known for defense and Joe Flacco played better this year with Zorn. Just because he didn't work out as a HC or OC, doesn't mean he automatically sucks at a QB coach. Joe Flacco, I believe, was outraged when they fired Zorn.

I would be outraged too if the slip n' slide coach got fired. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HailToTheRedskins14 Posted February 16, 2011 Share Posted February 16, 2011 Zorn is a pretty good QB coach. If we would've brought him in as QB Coach as originally planned, he might still be here. Too bad some genius had the idea to promote him to offensive coordi...errr, head coach. Off the top of my head that's the dumbest move I can remember in any sport.

Mahons21 Posted February 16, 2011 Share Posted February 16, 2011 Off the top of my head that's the dumbest move I can remember in any sport. The Trailblazers drafted that guy who's name I can't even remember right now instead of Jordan, and more recently Greg Oden instead of Durant. One organization, two moves far worse than promoting Zorn to be the puppeteer HC. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

OK not $50, I'd probably grab a seat at Barnes and Noble are read for free. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ArmchairRedskin Posted February 16, 2011 Share Posted February 16, 2011 I think the firing of Shanahan and the hiring of McDaniels was far worse for the Broncos than the hiring of Zorn was for us. McDaniels did a lot of long term damage to that franchise. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Conn Posted February 16, 2011 Share Posted February 16, 2011 He brought Haynesworth though... Nah, Vinny and Snyder did. Zorn was emasculated immediately upon arrival, and probably never had much say in personnel decisions. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
