I am just tossing out names, but he could be considered sort of a secondary guy. He also is a starter. His contract could be easly exited. He also was familiar with everything

Of course it's AA. Who else is bitter as hell at this point? AA is not playing and his job was taken by Vincent. Plus Fox and Dourghty are playing in front of him. He's basically been embarrased by the coaches. So everything points to him.

I'm not even half way through this. Do I have to read through the rest of this fucking bullshit?

I have a friend whose family is very close with Greg Williams.

This article is garbage....

Sorry if it offends you personally, but if you read it & look at the way we've played on D this year objectively, the article merely provides details as to why we've underachieved so much. Don't you think there are reasons why until yesterday there was virtually no gang-tackling & plenty of missed tackles? If it's all fiction, it surely is believable.

Well as long as you're basing your reasoning on something solid like who your friend knows...

Re: Must-Read Article on GW and the Defense

According to Springs and a couple of other Skins, the article is BS and ACTUALLY part of what help motivate them against Carolina

I hope that's the majority view on the team. One thing is certain; the article hinges on ONE player's testimony as an anonymous source. Any 1 person can exaggerate or misrepresent the intentions of others.
What I think is important about the article is that it is believable when a defense falls as far as this one has & until sunday didn't seem to play w/any consistent effort.

Re: Must-Read Article on GW and the Defense

But they did acknowledge that some of that article may be true. Either way, it seems to have 'rallied the troops', so perhaps it was for the best.

Where are you guys reading this stuff? I haven't found any information discussing this article beyond the ESPN site. Where should I look?

Thank you.

Oh you mean the article with the headline talking about the divisive article. Right.

Sorry, I'm an imbecile.

Re: Must-Read Article on GW and the Defense

Quote:
"And Gregg Williams says all the time, it's not my money. If Gregg was the one writing the checks, I don't know if he'd handle it that way. But he says it in meetings. He gives us speeches about, 'If you don't know what to do, you're going to be standing next to me on the sideline, I don't give a f---. That's where you're going to be. I need to be able to trust you. Hey, it's not my money. I don't care how much you make, I don't care who you are, I'm not the one writing the check, you need to know your assignments, know what to do.' That's what Gregg says. I wonder how Snyder would feel if he heard that one."
If half of the comments about Williams made in this article are true, it's shocking, but it also explains alot about what's happening this season and why he fell out of favor in Buffalo. However, players dropping Snyder's name to rationalize their poor performance, and claiming that coaches "can't act like Buddy Ryan" is a sissified copout.

I'm glad that Williams doesn't care how much a player makes, and that he's willing to sit him, regardless of who he is. And who gives a shit if he calls somebody out, 12 hours before a game? If getting called out for playing like ass makes a player have a little pity party for himself on the field, he shouldn't have a job in the NFL.

Re: Must-Read Article on GW and the Defense

having a friend who's family is close to greg williams does absolutely nothing to discount the accuracy of this article... so if you have some proof that anything in it is untrue, i'd love to hear it, and if not, why do you think it's garbage?

Re: Must-Read Article on GW and the Defense

I do not believe very much of that article. It smells fishy, kind of like tuna or jerry jones. Just because it is in print does not make it the truth. JC looked great in my perspective.

But imagine if we had lost, and our D still looked back. Everyone would be calling for GW's head, even if it was just one player that came out and said this.

Seriously it is all good and well for everyone to NOW say the article was BS, but we were all pissing in our pants when this first came out.
