According to Kent Babb of the Kansas City Star, Chiefs quarterback coach Jim Zorn reportedly gave the team an ultimatum that he be promoted to offensive coordinator. Both Zorn and former Raiders offensive coordinator Al Saunders were interviewed for the OC job in Kansas City but head coach Romeo Crennel instead named Brian Daboll his offensive coordinator this week. Crennel stated that Zorn may have other job opportunities but hopes he decides to stay with the Chiefs. “I hope that Jim stays,” Crennel said. “I know that any time you’re interviewed for the coordinator job, you have hopes of getting it, and it didn’t work out for him here at this time. But I told Jim that I wanted him to stay and hoped that he would stay. And I expect him to stay. I don’t know what else might happen for him, but if nothing happens for him, then I expect him to be there.” Zorn should be glad he still has a job. Many observers felt Chiefs QB Matt Cassel took a substantial step backwards under Zorn's tutelage last season.
