Jim Zorn Doesn't Seem Too Tight

(Via CSN's pre-game show)
Maybe Jim Zorn's job isn't exactly at stake against Detroit, but I'm pretty sure it doesn't help his long-term career prospects if Lions break their losing skid. That said, he doesn't exactly seem tense, in these images from CSN's pre-game show. Above, it's Zorn, offering pointers on the finer points of red-zone strategy to Tom Cruise. Below, it's.....I don't know what it is.
As for Cruise's presence on the sidelines, Skins PR man Larry Weisman tweeted this: "Met Tom Cruise last night. Guest of Dan Snyder's for dinner and game in Detroit. May fly in for U2 concert at FedEx on Tues. Nice guy."
Sigh.

Also, this is a fairly solid sign to bring to this game. Matt Terl reports that the fan talked to Robert Henson, and explained it was all in good fun. Still a great sign.

Maybe....just maybe....he should be coaching Campbell, not Cruise. Oh well, they both start with "C", so who's to say. By the way, the Lions have played the Skins like they're going to the Super Bowl. How much longer can this continue?
GO JETS!!!!

wow - only the redskins could make the lions look like super bowl contenders - what a pathetic display. AND it aint the coaches fault - the players are pitiful - no heart no guts but really cool cars!!

OK, now it's over. Fire Zorn, fire Campbell. Most of all, fire Little Lord Danny, who has allowed all of this to fester. Redskins STINK!
GO JETS!!!!

Snyder will continue to put a bad product on the field because the fans are fools. We keep buying tickets; keep buying the overpriced merchandise and keep putting money in Snyder's pocket. So why would he change? If you did things your way and are making money..why would you change it just because it's the wrong way to do things? I certainly wouldn't.

U R kidding. Portis either has lost a step or isn't playing. The Defense is PATHETIC and balme this loss on not having an offensive line or replacements for the offensive line. <<<< Who is in charge of that? FIRE them

Thanks to Robert Henson for going with the joke with my sign and to Steinberg for posting it. I was trying to get my "Get Well Cody" sign posted. Henson came over and shook my hand and autographed his gloves. Karl G
