Here is my reading of Danny Boy's mind. Snyder has invested everything in defense this year. The offense is a total mess, from Zorn's uninspired coaching to Jason Campbell's struggling with the offensive scheme to Clinton Portis, who runs four yards and then falls down, to the receiving corp, which is made up of a couple of slot receivers and some newbies who can't catch a cold. Oh, and Snyder has gutted what was already a pitiful O-Line.
I think Snyder is being passive-aggressive, here. He has created a situation where the offense is going to fail miserably at all levels. This will give him the latitude at the end of the season to fire Zorn, not renew Campbell and dump a receiver or two. He'll then hire Mike Shanahan for some ungodly amount ($50 million for five years, maybe?) because Clinton Portis liked him.
