Friday, October 23: Vinny Cerrato Endorses Jim Zorn
After a week of rumors, counter-rumors, statements from what seemed like every ex-Redskin still in the area (and one ex-Seahawk), and a metric ton of drama, it seemed like nearly everyone assumed head coach Jim Zorn's tenure was as good as over.
So naturally, executive vice president of football operations Vinny Cerrato started his Inside The Red Zone radio show this week with ... a pretty unequivocal endorsement of Zorn.
"Let me start by making a few things very perfectly clear," he said. "Jim Zorn is the head coach of the Washington Redskins and will for the rest of this season, and hopefully into the future."
Cerrato also insisted that -- despite what some have said -- "the relationships internally within the organization quite frankly remain the same," and acknowledged that everyone in the organization (including the owner) is disappointed for the fans about how the team has performed.
Yeah, that's exactly what everyone expected today.

This is really not a suprise. First, some players asked the front office to support zorn, so they finally came out and did it. Second, Shanahan reportedly said that "there is no way I can come in in the middle of the season and help the team", so that shows that snyder is listening. Third, we all know that zorn is not going to be our coach next season, unless we make the playoffs, but who knows. If Sherm Lewis improves this offense then stump mitchell better be looking for another job next season.

Great first I get the flu and now the only reason to be possibly excited for this team (other than Vinny maybe being replaced) is gone.
Ugh. The season is over and if he stays longer there won't be many fans watching left.
Zorn should not be head coach, he should never have been, but we'll see what happens.

Bet you Zorn is relieved. Just like knowing that Chuck Norris has your back! Nothing to worry about now.
