98 Breeze won't start (2.4L)

I have a 1998 Plymouth Breeze 2.4L died while driving (check engine light came on) and then it would not start after that. Used diagnostic tool from AutoZone to check the code, came out as a "camshaft position sensor failure or misfire". I replaced the camshaft sensor, no luck. So I checked for spark and gas delivery. Gas was being injected, but there was no spark in any of the plugs. I called AutoZone, and they said that the problem was probably the crankshaft sensor (since there was no spark at all, and the coil pack is split into two parts per AutoZone and one side would probably go bad before the other - not both sides at once). So I replaced that as well, but still the car will not start. Any suggestions?

I wonder if your timing belt may have snapped? Try pulling the cam sensor and get someone to crank the engine while you look to see if the cam is spinning. If not then you must have a broken belt and/or loose idler...something in that area.
