Wow. G-Dub really is a grade a scumbag.

Report: Gregg Williams put $15,000 bounty on Brad Johnson in 2006 | ProFootballTalk

I'll step up, I was one of the fans that wanted Williams to replace Gibbs when he stepped down after 2007. I'm definitely glad that didn't happen now.

Ditto. At the time, he was what looked like the best option.

Could have even been better than some of those we interviewed for the position and certainly would have been better than Zorn...but where would this scandal have us now. We could be the Saints right now, so we probably dodged a big bullet.

Not really. First off, when he was being discussed as Gibbs' successor, none of the bounty stuff was public in anyway, so it's not like people knew he was POS and still wanted him as HC. Secondly, I'm of the frame of mind that he probably wouldn't have had a lot of success as HC here, and even if he was given the job, he probably wouldn't have it anymore, regardless of bountygate.

Hindsight is always 20/20.

Actually, it worked out perfect. The terribleness that we have come to know as Zorn and Vinny led to the arrival of our current front office and head coach. Not only that, we are on our way to drafting a franchise QB of the highest caliber.

Suffer for two years to get a decent coach/front office? I'll take that deal.

Re: Bountygate Punishment for the Saints

Those that wanted GW as our HC shouldn't have to eat crow, it's not like we had any idea this was going on or what a scumbag he is. In hindsight sure, it would have been a bad idea.

Re: Bountygate Punishment for the Saints

Brad Johnson was worth $15K late in his career?

I'd love to see a full price list.

Sean William Scott and the Rock prophesized that the Saints would pick up Parcells in the film The Rundown? I'll have to go watch that movie again...
