Redskins [Redskins] Mike Holmgren Says Redskins Treatment Of Jim Zorn 'Unfair'

The bridge that was connecting Mike Holmgren to the Washington Redskins head coaching job, should it come open, might have been blown up on Monday and Holmgren was the one holding the gasoline can in one hand and a burned match in the other. On the "The Waddle and Silvy Show," Holmgren was asked by the Chicago radio hosts, Tom Waddle and Marc Silverman, what he thought about the Redskins removing the play-calling duties from head coach Jim Zorn, who was Holmgren's quarterbacks coach in Seattle. "I thought it was very unfair to put him in the position. The position they put Jim in, it shouldn't happen," Holmgren said. "You can be upset with me as a play-caller or how the team's going, (then) fire me. But don't do that. Don't pull the rug out from under me, tie my hands, make me look foolish … take away what I came there for to do in the first place. Don't do that."

Going out on a limb but i am thinking if they fire Jim Z then they would have to keep paying him but if he quits then they dont.

I really dont care what it takes to get rid of Zorn & Campbell. Neither one has any business on the field come Sunday.

Do you know what the difference is between the Redskins and a dollar? You can get 4 quarters from the dollar.

I thought the dollar was worth more than the Redskins.
