Fire Gregg Williams and Al Saunders

[chris36]

This is the worst defense I have ever seen, the Redskins, put on the field. I cant believe the terrible decsions that have been made on personel. I have never felt good about Williams system. It always seemedto me that we were vulnerable to the big play. We just got lucky in many cases like we did against the Cowgirls.

Lets just fire everyone

As far as Saunders goes, I dont like how much bull shit they run, either.

Dude....why are you posting multiple threads under the same title. Stick to one thread...

[Redskins_P]

chris36 you should get fired...

[Agentenders]

NO WAY! Gregg Williams' system worked pretty well last year...it just that this year we don't have the DBs to allow a blitz!

Al Saunders' offense also cannot be learned overnight! It takes time and it has been proven if you look at the KC Chiefs' offensive history. And that was without superstar receivers like we're supposed to have.

Merge--exactly the same thread title. Don't know who went first. Everyone is making bad plays today, even here on the warpath!

This has nothing to do with Gregg Williams or Al Saunders. It is the damn players, Gregg Williams did not bite on the pass to Stallworth, he didn't design a defense that allowed a freak ass fumble for another big score. Al Saunders does not throw the ball 3-7 yards 90% of the time, he did not throw the ball to Lito Sheppard for another score. Get off the coaches as the problem both proven coordinators.

In fairness, Brunell does check down more than necessary. But, many of the plays they ran today don't have downfield options. Like the swing pass to Betts which they ran against Dallas for a first down on the first drive last week and called several times today. There are no other receivers on that play that you can try get the ball to. Cooley is just setting a pick. Ditto the slant on 3rd and 10. Brunell can wait for the receiver to get further up the field, but as the Madden afficianados will understand, a slant has a definite window that is quickly closed by the safety.

If you know your quarterback has a propensity to look short, then call plays that don't have short options. They should have been protecting with seven and sending everyone else down the field. I believe they call it a 989. If no one is open downfield, Fauria or Sellars or Betts can then let their man go and try to bail Brunell out. This is called flair control. It gives the play options and it's simple. Saunders' style seems to put all the money on one number. He seems to think that he can guess which skill player is going to make the BIG PLAY on THIS PLAY. Impossible.

In addition, the runs they call are so scatter-shot and un-related that they add up to nothing. Last year when we got 80 yards rushing in a half, the other team was in trouble because it meant they were being worn down and the cumulative affect was devestating. Today we had around 80 yards in the first half, but it didn't matter because a) it led to no TDs and b)the style of the runs are not demoralizing. When you run the same basic play over and over again and still get first downs, the other team starts to quit. Saunders won't do that.

Good grief....can we fire fans?

[illdefined]

how bout changing a couple key positions on the field FIRST, before firing the whole organization?

I dont like the big corner theory and I am pissed that we are stuck with Archuleta. Sorry for the second post, it was an accident.

At least you didn't throw a 70 yard INT for a touchdown! Or a minus-9 yard pass. Then you'd be in trouble here!
