1) We won the coin-toss, I say take the ball to start the game... your offense had been playing well the last few weeks, you're at home on national TV... take the ball to start the game and try and set the pace... instead, they defer, and the Giants took control of that game with the opening drive...
2) on the Giants first drive, on that 3rd and short, from the live play and all replays, looked like the Giants RB was stopped well short of the first down, yet he was given a favorable spot, and then there was NO measurement, how is that allowed, another terrible call by the refs...
3) the debacle of a play right before halftime....
4) the fight, i couldn't believe Zorn just accepted the fact that the ref didn't want to give him an explanation... I was more ticked off at the fact that they managed to give AH a penalty there, and not Jacobs, who started the entire thing, and threw more punches (actually, he slapped at players) than AH did, absolutely absurd; that ticked me off more than the score did...
** please note, I am NOT blaming the refs for this loss, just seemed they were there to help the Giants along, and assure things went smoothly for them **
I agree with all of those, especially #2. I couldn't believe no one in our booth told Zorn to ask for a measurement. That really pissed me off when the back judge just came up and gave the signal for first down. He had no way of telling from his perspective. I might have even thrown the challenge flag on that play to challenge the spot.

Embarrassing himself and his team was an odd way of "getting back to Snyder." What's he going to do next week, wear a dress on the sidelines and drool? That'll embarrass Snyder. To be clear, I'm mocking Zorn not you, I agree in his warped and apparently bitter mind you're right, he somehow rationalized that it was "Snyder" he was embarrassing.
Zorn wants his money.
He's just trying to show Snyder he does not care anymore. If the fans see a bad show on the field, well that's too bad...
Do you really believe Zorn has an ounce worth of knowledge of what the Redskins are? This is just a job for him.
He did no even know the colors of the organization when he got here!

No, I think it's symbolic of a guy that has no business being an NFL coach .. and nothing more sinister or complicated than that.
I was wondering when the other shoe would fall with a bunch of men being lead by an emasculated, eunuch that Zorn has become. His press conference prior to the game commenting on the hiring of Allen and what that might mean for him was a new low. Zorn spoke of the team playing well and demonstrating his "competency", as if there might be some possibility of him being retained by the new GM. What a sad, sad, sad thing to witness ... public castration followed by prostration, followed by totally pathetic delusions.
Is there a red blooded man residing in Jim Zorn's body? If so, he's hiding it pretty good.
Come on Snyder, you've wasted more money on more foolish moves ... give this ball-less man permission to leave, along with his pay for next year. It should be PAINFULLY obvious by now to anyone watching that there is no level of personal humiliation Jim Zorn won't endure for that paycheck. Give it to him already, and don't make Redskin Nation, and the rest of the world watch this pathetic spectacle any longer.
Continuing this for two more weeks constitutes cruel and unusual punishment, with untold levels of collateral damage.
Enough is enough.
Yes, but this a pride thing.
Neither Snyder nor Zorn want to budge.
Either way, it should be fun watching next week's game versus Dallas. I think we will see even more of this type of playcalling by Zorn.

Don't these statements contradict that he did a spiteful act? Doesn't it say it does matter to him?
