[KC Chiefs.com] The Chiefs announced today the hiring of Jim Zorn as their quarterback coach. Zorn is a former NFL quarterback with Seattle and coached the position for 11 seasons with Seattle, Detroit and, last season, Baltimore.
Zorn was also Washington’s head coach in 2008 and 2009.
The addition of Jim Zorn finalizes Kansas City’s 2011 coaching staff.
YES! I predicted this one. Very good move. Cassel needed this.

Zorn is a great QB coach and Flacco made major strides with him last season. Vinnie, easy on Cassel! I know he struggled in his last two games but 25 TDs and only 7 picks with only one good receiver and a rookie TE. Our O-line was a little better last year but soon it will be solidified and Cassel will have some weapons at wide-out. Than he will be considered one of the best in the game! Great move by the Chief’s front office!!!

yea not sold on it, and not sold on us getting any reciever help anytime soon either. so long as bobby zorn is not the head coach, or has anything to do with the term head coach, or is not allowed to sit at the dinner table with the head coach, or can only spend a limited amount of time talking to the head coach, we will be ok. he did great things for flacco and hasselback. but yea i dont wanna talk about his great job in washington.

sorry had to get that out of my system, my wife is a skins fan, and i thought it was great when he was there. but i honestly dont see the regular season happening anytime soon. i hate to be such a negative nancy about it, but it doesnt sound good. i wish they made a easy button for the labor talks.

In my opinion Cassel is entering his make or break season, yeah he had an ok 2010 season, but with out the little help he did get from the wideout’s, tightend’s and running backs it would have been another bust…with that said the wideout’s did have alot of drops…so put up or shut up the time is now Matt…..P.S I am a Cassel fan but we can’t wait forever…

Yall are crazy!!!! PUT UP OR SHUT UP?!?! Are you kidding?!? He’s been there two years. His debut in KC was the first as a starter, and he made HUGE improvements in his 2nd year. Lets not get greedy here, otherwise Brodie Croyle or Damon Huard will be taking snaps again. GET real guy!

DAMON HUARD IS NO LONGER IN KANSAS CITY

Damon Huard???? Bernard try to keep up before you post a stupid commit….Huard has been gone for like 4 years man.

Thats not my point! my point is are you really complaining about Cassell when he made it to the pro bowl??? Maybe we should GO BACK to having the high caliber quarterbacks of a Brodie Croyle, and a Damon Huard!
