]]> Is Jason Taylor as good as gone? One and done? That’s what it looks like as of now. From Redskins Insider:

As for ends, there was some discussion about Jason Taylor possibly adding some pass rush as more of a linebacker, and there was talk about keeping him. However, his $8.5 million salary is very steep and he will be approached about coming back at a lesser salary, according to a source. That’s quite unlikely to go down, though. Several of Taylor’s teammates and others who know him well say they do not expect him to accept a reduced rate. In that case he’d rather be a free agent, they say, able to sign where he likes, preferring a system with less rigid responsibilities. He’s a better fit in a 3-4 scheme and would rather play in a warmer area, they say. Some believe he would even go back to Miami at a discount, if Bill Parcells would take him, to finish his career there. Regardless, coming back here for half his salary seems unrealistic at this point.

Having J.T. back would be nice, but he didn’t perform well enough to warrant that kind of salary. Plus, he’s getting a little long in the tooth and is having trouble staying healthy. Looks like the Jason Taylor experiment is over.

As the clock ticked away to yet another embarrassing defeat the look on Coach Jim Zorn’s face was priceless. It was a look of disgust, a look of embarrassment, a look of “is this really happening?”  Yes coach it is and the love fest for you is long gone.  Now as the Redskins deal with yet another loss to a pitiful team, rumors are spreading that the once almighty Zorny will be canned.  What the hell happened to this promising season?  The Skins were riding high after a 6-2 start, looking to challenge the mighty Giants for the division title.  Yet here they sit at 7-7 at the bottom of the NFC east with pretty much no chance of a playoff berth.

Can we really blame Zorn for this dreadful season?  Well he should take most of the blame, I understand losing to the Cowboys and the Giants, but the Bengals?  There is just no excuse for that.  How do you not give the ball to Portis on the 1 yard line with two downs to play with?  With only two games left in the season we might be the only team that hasn’t scored 30 points.  The offense is on you Zorn, this was your baby and you blew it.
Zorn finally put his ego aside on Monday and started to take the blame for his teams collapse.  He was quoted as saying he feels like the “worst coach in America.”  It is too little too late as he has already lost the players on this team because of the blame he puts on them and not himself.  I think someone finally got the word to him and he felt he had to say something.  Let’s not forget about the Portis vs. Zorn spat that happened just last week.  I am sorry but I am on Clinton’s side here.  He has carried this team all year and continues to play despite several injuries.  Up until a couple of weeks ago he was a legit MVP candidate and was on pace for his best season ever.  So you can understand his frustration when Zorn decided to use him as his scapegoat.

Is there a future for Zorn in D.C.?  Well the chances don’t look good and you know Danny boy has got Bill Cowher on speed dial and he is just itching to make a move.
