    I didn't draw the conclusion from it, i simply stated a game that he did terrible in. Yeah...so I chose a bad game to decide it on. GTFOH with I lack factual knowledge and reasoning. The dude was not good.

    And if you read the entire thread (Which obviously you lack the brains to read an entire paragraph and just like to dissect random statements to prove your point...) you would've realized I was talking about what nucleo was with Krieg coming in after 5 games in Seattle to send them to the playoffs.

    Now tell me that's a statement the guys was good? You've got to be kidding me.

    I mess up the Dolphins starters in the 80s because I dont watch them (which I admitted)...they still had an extremely solid run game, which I was right on. That made Marino good.

    I said Brunell wasnt the reason for the Jags success in the late 90s either. Know for a fact the Jags had FRED TAYLOR and KEENAN McCardell....Solid run + good receivers + good line = good QB. So you're saying Zorn was good, had mobility, whatever.

    Where's your stats to prove it? The dude got INTs and sacks....His best season was in 1979, he put up over 3,000 yds passing 20 td and 18 int. But guess what, 57% completion...yeah, decent one year. That's like saying larry brown was good as a career just because of one season with dallas and Deion on the other side...he wasnt good. Offenses exposed him everywhere else he played.

    I don't know it all, if you read last night and knew i was drunk you'd realize i wasnt paying attention to every little detail...

    You can argue til your breath runs out...I still ain't leaving and Zorn was pretty bad...

    He was 40-60 in 126 GS and 107 TDs and 133 INTs....201 sacks and a 67.9 passer rating...that's as good as rick mirer....

    There's a point...speaking of bad O-Lines when Mirer was in Sea for 3 years, he amassed over 100 sacks on him...that's where id give benefit of the doubt to mobility.


    going purely by numbers doesnt tell the whole story of a player. he wasnt great, but he wasnt bad either . the fact is you dont know crap about Zorn.

    if he were that bad, Largent doesnt get into the HALL because i'm sure a half to a third of his balls came from Zorn.

    Zorn was another of the select group of people in history that at least get a decent long term taste of athletic stardom. He did not suck.

      Get outta here if you dont have anything to add to the conversation.

      You worthless.
      You have to learn to never blame the quarterback, no matter how worthless he really was - Jim Zorn/Jim Miller/Crapson Palmer. See, when Dave Krieg took over mid season in '83, sure he was able to win more games, and put up better stats than Zorn was with the exact same team, but the team obviously had something against Zorn. Jim Zorn threw 7 TD passes in 8 games back in '83 - Dave Krieg threw 18 TDs in the same number of games that same season. It wasn't because Zorn sucked, seriously, it wasn't.

      Ahh, well, it's not Zorn's fault, I guess.. By that time, he was 30 and his best years passed him by.

        Why? What are you basing Zorn's alleged lack of mobility on? Or do you think an immobile QB could survive 8 years on an expansion team?

        Still makes no sense. You are still ignoring "all those games" you saw of Zorn in Seattle and basing your opinion of him on a 1985 Bears-Packers game. Even your 2nd paragraph, which actually talks about Seattle, really just talks about post-Zorn Seattle.

        And LOL at comparing the 1983 Seahawks to the 1976 Seahawks. Krieg was better than Zorn at that time...so what?

        Are you serious? You think the 1984 Dolphins were good because of their run game? I've heard some retarded stuff in this NFL section, but that takes the cake. First, you COMPLETELY mess up the timeline, saying that Mercury Morris played for the 1984 Dolphins. Second, after being called out, you stick to your guns and claim the run game of the 84 Fins made Marino.

        Wow.

        I'm not trying to say Zorn is "good". I'm saying his best days were pre-1985, and his mobility made him a good fit for the expansion Seahawks.

          HUH? WTF are you talking about? Did the synapses in your brain stop firing mid-post?

          I am thinking about how many times the Seahawks passed/ran the ball on offense...amazingly, I figure the Seahawks passed/ran the ball on every play that wasn't a kicking play!! That indeed is a FACTOR in my mind, too.

            This is one of the worst threads i've ever seen in MM/VSN NFL/NCAA section history.

            Total horrendous, baseless, and retarded arguments on all sides.

              Yes. Even with BBIB and Dr. P I could at least follow their argument, no matter how flawed it may be.

              Big AD is on some type of medication which doesn't allow him to express himself in a coherent manner...I can't even say its a "stream of consciousness" deal, because I am questioning whether or not he is conscious when he posts...

              I know a lot of Hall of Fame WRs had great QBs....but when you think about how many times they passed/ran the ball, it's also a factor in my mind

              When did analyst Emmitt Smith start posting at VSN?

                The only reason he's still in the NFL is his arm had great mechanics. He had good accuracy. Yeah...so does Carson Palmer...and Matt Leinart...so does that make them solid players now? Palmer's stats say yes, but look at cincy as a whole and how he's led that team. There's so much more than his numbers involved. I saw him in a Seattle game because I was tryin to learn WR moves from Steve Largent and found out Largent's best move was turning and hoping Zorn wasnt sacked
                I lol'd.

                      What the / was meant more passes than rushes in a game...like i said, im getting used to posting on a forum again. You have a different set of lingo/typing than im used to...

                          didnt Harbaugh get to one game away from the Superbowl? Twice ?

                          with the Colts. I believe the Steelers knocked them off both times ..? maybe one was the championship and the other was 1st or second round...?
