Must-Read Article on GW and the Defense

Also see this quote, there is no way this play would know this without being a DB or safety.

Scapegoat No. 3: Rogers. He's the cornerback that was left on an island on the go-ahead touchdown Sunday against Tampa Bay's Joey Galloway. Williams blitzed and missed, costing the team the score. Afterward, Williams took public blame for the call, a rarity, but a Redskins player said, "No, he didn't. In meetings, Carlos still heard about it."

Right. Players talk amongst themselves, though. Any Defensive and Offensive player can get together for Madden 2007 Marathon and start talking all night about all the bullshit on both sides of the ball. What one guy hears can easily be relayed to another through the grapevine. Not to mention if it were an offensive player he doesn't have as much to worry about if it gets out that he was the one talking.

I'm fairly convinced it is a defensive player but it won't shock me to find that these are the whispers of a disgruntled offensive player.

Fair enough, I just feel that the chances of someone calling out the other side of the ball, which they dont even represent would almost be arrogent. I dont think that would happen, but I guess it is a slight possibility.


Some people mentioned it could be people like Wright, but those guys are a bunch of Scrubs IMO, and they have no credibility whatsoever. I think they know this, and would not call out the team from their position.

The best assumption so far is that we may never find out who it was. Really all that matters is what's to become of it if anything? It's time to take a look at the basic preimse of marginal cost versus marginal benefit. Is keeping Williams better for the organization due to how much we have invested in his contract or should he be dismissed in order to bring in a defensive coordinator that can command the respect of his team as well as staff?

Five bucks says Pastabelly is somewhere deep within his hovel rubbing freshly printed copies of this article all over his spaghetti sauce stained torso.

1)You dont think we will eventually figure out who it is, or atleast narrow it down a bit more? I personally feel we will, because I am sure a bunch of people know exactly who leaked. And that will leak to the public eventually, IMO.

2)Well the money wouldnt hurt anyone but Danny Boy, bc coaches salary does not impact the cap. So why not cut him if it is really needed? I am not really sure if it is needed at this point, but cutting him is just a cool million for danny boy.

3)And lol @ the Pastabelly thing.

I didn't read this article till after our great win, but it was quite interesting considering how much pressure the front 4 generated. Was it because GW just turned them loose?
Anyone remember Marty's 0-5 start? After that, he changed his ways & gave in to the players, went on a 5 game win streak & finished 8-8. Maybe GW made some conciliatory gestures to the team & changed some assignments to their liking?

Marty never really changed his ways, he just let the players have their say and that helped to break down the tension between the staff and the players. Perhaps we're seeing a similar thing happening with the current team.
