Re: Gregg Williams has to go

GW has been around this league long enough where he should be involved in evaluating and selecting his own players, I really don't see where that's a problem at all.

Seems like some people want to let him off the hook a little bit.

Don't get me wrong I'm not throwing him under the bus, but he's definitely not an innocent bystander this season.

Would I fire him? Definitely not.

Re: Gregg Williams has to go

As long as he doesn't get fired I don't care who throws him under the bus, but he and saunders are great football minds, and with good D and O-lines there would be no problems at all this season...............BUT

Re: Gregg Williams has to go

I love when guys write a blog and quote people but fail to say who made the statement. Its like they make things up to back up their opinions and do they really let theses guys on the field as they warm up for pratice. Do we really think that this talented coaching staff cannot see their mistakes and are too dumb to know how and fix them. I still go back to the short and easy training camp which started our problems and I believe Gibbs has said that won't happen again. We have a team that has lost their confidence and they are all second guessing what they are doing on the field which is a big problem.

Re: Gregg Williams has to go

I guess the question I would have to ask is if Gibbs left and another coach came in and again it didnt work out so Gibbs said he'll come back for a 3rd time, would skins fans be excited?

Re: Gregg Williams has to go

I respect your opinion. However, I don't agree with it in this instance. I would definitely keep Coach Williams. I'm sure he is making a list of good players and not-so-good players ... and checking it twice.

Re: Gregg Williams has to go

This has just been a season of everything that could possibly go wrong, went wrong. Yes It has been difficult to deal with, but all teams go thru a process like this. To fire a mainstay in the org doesn't make sense. We are trying to build stability in the organization, and it would be dumb diddly dumb to bring in a whole new defensive scheme for next year.

I think that Joe Gibbs is going to ask Williams to leave after the season. There isn't any way we can go forward with him at the helm. The players don't seem to respond to him, he has made some very poor personnel decisions, his fairness is in question, and the field tactics he uses may no longer be adequate.
This is absolutely rediculous...He carried the team the 1st couple seasons and now after one bad year he is overboard. I would give him a lesser say in talent evaluation but I would not let him go as coach.

Too right. Williams kept this team afloat by building one of the best defenses in the league with a pretty average set of players. Realistically, he has one very good player (Washington) and one possibly great player (Taylor) and a lot of servicable players and he managed to create a great D. This year has been poor and he may have made mistakes but he has proved that he knows what he is doing. To get rid of him would be madness.

On the issue of bringing the FAs in, how much say did he have?

Re: Gregg Williams has to go

The redskins dont do anything multi- year. That would require building on a foundation that has been laid and building slowly is something that this organization has proved over and over again it has no interest in doing.

Re: Gregg Williams has to go

I wouldn't put one person's reactoin to a bad season on the rest of us. No one really wants us to fire greg williams. ONE PERSON said that. Almost everyone has disagreed with that statement, there is no reason to change the coaching personnel. Most of the talk has been about getting better defensive talent, most fans would agree that we don't have enough talent on D.
