Everyone in the NFL needs to shut up about Williams
Shallow:
This is getting worse than the steroids scandal in the baseball when everyone that you know was juicing up in arms over the next guy getting caught.
Greg Williams was a pupil of Buddy Ryan, who taught him how to coach football. Anyone actually believe Buddy just made it up himself. Trying to hurt the other team has been a part of the game for decades. Of course Williams just gets to be the scapegoat. No one wants to bring in the likelihood that both the 85 Bears and the SB3 Jets were being coached to injure the other teams stars. No one wants to hear what was said inside the locker room by Vince Lombardi when he wanted his team to make sure they didn't come up short. What about the Steel Curtain? Jack Lambert retired from football and then armed himself with a rifle and patrolled the border looking for Mexicans. You don't think a guy like that was trying to hurt people on the field.
What Greg Williams was caught for was something that happens and has been happening in the NFL for a very long time. The problem is the Saints got cocky with it, and that's why they're being punished. And shame on every idiot that's been in the league for their entire adult lives acting like they never imagined anything like this could happen.

I just hate the way all these clowns are pretending to be offended. It's the same reason Bellicheck ran up the score the most on the teams with coaches that publicly came out against Spygate. He was getting back at them for trying to sit on their high horses, but they were all full of shit.
And now a great defensive coach is going to get blackballed for doing what so many other greats had done. No Greg Williams equals no 09 Saints Superbowl. It's as simple as that. His coaching style was just as important as Payton and Brees. The Vikes would have ate them up.
OG Jaydc:
Agreed.

I don't know. I can imagine saying "knock this guys head off". Or, let's hit Crabtee and see if he's for real or not.
But telling them to purposely try to tear a guys ACL. That's bullshit.
