Redskins Insider (http://blog.washingtonpost.com/redskinsinsider/)
Jason LaCanfora points out some of the serious mistakes that Gregg Williams has made in terms of personnel, and it seems that the defense is no longer playing hard under his leadership.
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.

I think it would be a big mistake to let Coach Williams go. He may leave anyways, he could have other opprotunities, but I don't think he should be forced.

Wow. Talk about jumping the gun here. Think of the past two seasons under GW. The defense has been lights out. We were all so happy when we inked him for an extension in the offseason. If anyone made mistakes it was Snyder going out and attempting to upgrade the defense when it either wasn't needed and basically didn't work. The problem this season seems to be basically just a lack of skill on defense. I don't think this is GW's fault. Letting him go could be the worst move the team could make at this point.

You may be right, but what about the substance of Jason LaCanfora's article and the points he makes?

i dont know how much say he has when it comes to the players brought in or let go. i still feel he's a great defensive coach. i also feel gibbs is very loyal to him and would not ask him to leave, especially considering it was williams defense that gave the skins any chance at winning in 04 and it was williams defense that,for the most part, carried the team in 05. the defense is bad this year but they should be much better next season.

The defense performed well the past couple of years, that is true. Will these players respond to Williams now and in the future? I doubt it personally. I think that the problems we have on offense are correctable, but I think that on the defensive side we need new management, as in Greg Blache, if we are going to make progress. I might be mistaken. But I know I would feel better if we had a fresh start with Blache.

This is the problem with society now, everyone wants a quick fix. To claim that G. Williams has completely lost his ability to put a top defense on the field is ridiculous. I am tired of people who say blow the team up and fire everybody. It is plain stupid. O.k. so we fire everybody and cut all of the overpriced free agents then what are we left with? An expansion team. Yeah, that is a great idea...
