Re: Redskins-Giants Postgame Thoughts

Given the way the defense once again blew the game, we need to evaluate Gregg Williams' value to the team. I mean, how many coordinators who finish 31st or 32nd at what they do keep their jobs?

Not many have as many injuries and made so many mistakes in the free agency picking at fools gold as he has. After 2 fantastic seasons you want his head after one bad one, GL with that.

Every team has inuries - look at the Giants. And, Williams' previous two years mean absolutely nothing tonight as we end the season with Gibb's worst record EVER.

And the giants defense was nothing special tonight, Also who the f*** do you think got us to the playoffs last year becuase it certaintly wasent the offense, yep looked like williams D to me. So honestly the 2 previous season show that the man can coach a defense if he is given th eplayer, now lets give him the players and stop calling for everones head on the whole god damn planet.

LMAO...I agree with you the man can coach a defense before he came to DC he had the Buffalo Bills defense right there at the top of the league but if you keep expressing yourself like that you are going to get high blood pressure and will not be able to see when he fixes ours because you are going to have a stroke or something

You're right. The defense was critical in getting us to the playoffs last year. And this year, they cost us the season. So, it's a scratch for Gregg Williams. I'd rather have someone whose team will be consistent. Worst yet, Williams' star players such as Sean Taylor and top picks such as Carlos Rogers seem to get worse. From Top 10 to last or near-last is the one of the worst dropoffs I've ever seen.

Re: Redskins-Giants Postgame Thoughts

First of all, I don't put all of the blame Gregg Williams for the plummet we've seen this year -- according to accounts, he was the one who really wanted Adam Archuleta, so he takes a big hit for that one. But his scheme is fine -- what happened was that his players got old.

Apart from Golston and Carter, the defensive line is old. Even Griffin's days of wowing all of the fans is over. Salave'a can't stay healthy, and he was put in a full-time starting position this year -- he simply can't be expected to do that for 16 games. Renaldo Wynn and Philip Daniels may be great locker room leaders, but they're just not getting it done on the field anymore. Time to say goodbye.

And as bad as these starters are, the depth is even worse, and they won't take us anywhere. There was a shot of somebody named "Sykes" on the field last night. I have no idea who that was. But he, Demetric Evans, Ryan Boschetti and whoever else there is leave us no hope for the future.

We failed this year at two critical positions -- the line, and the secondary. No one could have predicted Kenny Wright's abyssmal showing, Archuleta's implosion, or Rogers' continuing fall from first round status (if he ever had it). We SHOULD have prepared for Springs' susceptability to injury, but most probably thought we did that by drafting Rogers.

Bottom line is, the bones that make up this defense were deteriorating for awhile, and this year they finally cracked. And it's not going to get fixed in one year, so don't get your hopes up.

Re: Redskins-Giants Postgame Thoughts

Players CAN get ancient over night. I've heard them say as much. Charles Mann admitted that once on a post game show. I'm paraphrasing, but he said that as quick as the flight from Washington to San Fransisco, where he ended his career, he got old. It can happen that quick.

And no, players getting old is not the coaches fault. That falls to the front office and player-personnel. Now, if Williams is making personnel decisions he's not qualified to make, then that's the fault of the system which puts him in charge of making those decisions -- so, back to the structure of this organization we go.

If we had healthy players last night, and I'm not sure we did, then that only strengthens the argument that the players we have aren't right for the system anymore. By the 16th game of the season, everybody's playing with some nagging problem. Was Griffin out there? I didn't see him too much -- but a guy can be healhy and still not get it done anymore.

It's like the design of a house -- if the plans are drawn up right, all the measurements are correct, everything works. But if the materials that make up the construction of the house are faulty, it all falls to the ground. The system was fine for the first two years -- and years before by Buddy Ryan who ran it for years and tutored Williams. Any system can be figured out when the players for that system suck.

Williams is good D coordinator, not a great one like we thought when he first got here. The fact of the matter is, statistically, his defenses have gotten worse every single year.

I don't care what anyone says, the departure of Pierce, Clark, and Smoot came back to bite us in the ass.

Fear not, Giants ownership will be blinded by the "play-off appearance" and give Coughlin an extension. Coughlin will then "con" the 'skins into allowing Williams to come be a co-defensive coordinator to work with Tim "as soon as Pittsburgh fires me they finally win the Super Bowl" Lewis, for next season.

I agree with you . The Giants need to dump "all" their coachs and start new.I'll take Gibbs(joke) but Ty Willingham would be my pick or Norm Chow.
