Zorn Praises Offense's Development

 
Jim Zorn, for all of his curiosity and innovation, has never been one to proceed carelessly. In his first months as the Redskins' coach last spring, he gingerly installed his offense, holding back the more expansive elements until he felt his players understood what they were doing. This spring, with a full year behind quarterback Jason Campbell, he added more, estimating that perhaps as much as half of the team's offense was introduced in minicamp and organized team activities. "Our installations this year were tremendous," he said on the last day of OTAs before training camp. "Last year even the coaches didn't know the offense. I was the only one who could go, 'No! That's not right!'" (link)
