Jim Zorn has been fired as the head coach of the Washington Redskins, the team announced Monday morning.

The Redskins were 4-12 this season, capped by a 23-20 loss to the San Diego Chargers on Sunday. It was the team's worst record in 15 years. Zorn was 12-20 in two seasons in Washington.

"No one in the organization is satisfied with our record over the last two years," Redskins owner Dan Snyder said in a statement released by the team. "And I am sure that Jim would concur with that statement. It has been painful for him, too. I certainly accept responsibility for mistakes that I have made. I am hopeful that our fans will accept my commitment and pledge to deliver a franchise that can compete in the NFC East every season."

i feel kind of bad for the guy; he's been getting shitted on all season lol.

deserves it lol

And apparently Mike Shanahan is the replacement and he's already picking out his staff. Very good hire.

if he can get a good team together, the NFC East is going to be a ridiculous division next year. :o

Look out for the AFC East and South in the next few years, (depending on who gets the Bills coach job)

I expect the Pats, Jets, and Dolphins to all be better. Buffalo I hope, but we'll see.

I think Dolphins are going to go on a decline. They'll stick to 6-8 wins.
