Let's look at it this way - he squeezed more than anyone could have expected out of a no-name defense in '04, had success in '05, but the cracks were starting to show, and besides a boneheaded move to bring in Andre Carter this year, really nothing was done to improve the D-line, and guys like Griffin and Salave'a are officially worn out.
So, do you really think Gregg Williams has forgot how to coach, or decided he's going to suck at his job?

No one is saying he's deciding to suck, but if you've ever had your career path threatened, it motivates you one of 3 ways.
1. A strong competitor ups his game with either better or worse results. Sometimes striving to overachieve can overshadow fundamental things.
Sometimes you in fact DO overachieve and win out.
either way its a risk....,.
2. A weak person will just roll over and die. totally pack in the bags. The rug was jerked and he's done, and its a slap in the face to them.
3. Then you have people who wont change the way they're doing things with mixed results as well...
they could sit back and wait for their proven track record and solid performance to speak for itself....but will that be mistaken for complacencey?
I think thats more of the situation than him just forgetting how to coach....
