I think it's high time to take a critical approach to Gregg Williams. One of the reasons he's be so successful in the past is that he does it differently than all other coordinators. He doesn't follow the trends.
But if he's incapable of producing a top 3/4 defense without elite defensive talent, then we simply can't move foward with him. Injuries are too much a part of the game to have a total collapse when they happen every year.
Some defensive dropoff is to be expected with Rogers out, Washington out, and Griffin banged up. But the scheme can't fall from No. 2 all the way to No. 30 just because one guy is out for the year and two others are dinged up. If our coordinator is to arrogant to adjust, we have to get someone else who can.
