Yeah they have missed so much practice time
I think before we come to a conclusion like that ,we'd need to see which direction they go. I'm not really on board with either side of this ,I don't pretend that my perception of Walton ever was valid enough to decide if he was good or bad for this team.
I doubt Fisher has been dawdling on a decision and will await a more definitive outcome before making a judgement.

Well wait, doesn't Williams advocate a mandatory 15 yard cushion and no blitzing? Oh, never mind, I was think of Robin Williams. Seriously, get corners to play more press, don't be afraid to blitz anywhere, anytime, with anyone, and take your lumps when the offense beats you on it because they will. Williams isn't being brought in to give up obligatory 7 yard passes because nobody is even in the friggin screen they are so deep. This type of Defense will lead to more 1-1 match ups, more turnovers, and more of a Defense that tries to dictates, vs passive. However, these types of D's give up BIG plays when something goes wrong. I'm all for it. I've had enough of bleeding to death from paper cuts. To me it is a skill that exists, or can be taught, as well as a mindset (to me that is the bigger thing). I like it.

Greg Williams is perfect I think. Some things have to go full circle before they arrive. Good karma there. Of course, the NFL would probably continue to drop the hammer on the Rams with the iffy flags on D.

This is good news. Can't wait to see the blitz packages he can dial up with the way our D-line has played the past 2 years.

I can't wait to see some of the blitz packages Williams will use with our back 7 & what he can do with our front 4. He is a complete 180 from Walton; he'll be pressuring the QB constantly and will be playing the CBs up close to the WRs. Tru & Jenks are best suited in a scheme where they play man to man and don't have to worry about anything else. I also love the fact that Williams is a fiery coach who gets the most out of his players. The 2009 Saints featured Will Smith & Jonathan Vilma, but besides them you had a bunch of role players and a safety in his late 30s who was still producing (Sharper). That D definately overachieved in 2009, think of what he can do with one of the most talented defensive rosters in the league! And the Rams players already have familiarity with some of Williams' schemes because they originate from back when coach Fish & Williams worked together in Tennessee. I'm very excited! :woot::bigup::sly:

I thought GW was still working for the Titans? I love the move, if true, but I sure didn't see that coming when he was already in a pretty high position(at least it seemed to be).

Good, I'm not sure if this answers all our problems on D but I do think it was more scheme than personnel which held us back.
