Vote Of (No) Confidence

Since their last game, the 2-4 Washington Redskins have stripped coach Jim Zorn of offensive play-calling responsibilities, handed that role to the unretired Sherman Lewis and dealt with speculation about possible head-coaching replacements.

Under Zorn's leadership this season, the offense scored 79 points. Almost 60 percent of SportsNation said earlier this week that he should have quit after his demotion.

Redskins fans can't be much more confident in Lewis. In addition to 34 years of coaching experience prior to retiring in 2004, he had been calling bingo games for senior citizens before joining Washington as a consultant in recent weeks.

Maybe the team is setting the table for a move to the new stadium in Los Angeles (we kid, we kid).

Today, executive vice president of football operations Vinny Cerrato added some clarity to the situation, saying Zorn will remain coach through the end of the season.
