Before everyone gets carried away and nominates Coach Williams for MENSA membership, the defensive coordinators here in Washington in the last five years have been pretty good.

Marvin Lewis has been known to put a good defense on the field.

Mike Nolan is working out pretty well himself albeint not in DC.

Maybe - just maybe - the problem has not been all with the coaching staffs. Maybe some overhyped or over-aged or overly egotistical players made the defenses in prior years unworthy of some fancy nickname.

In fact, now that I think of it, given the age on some of the previous defenses and all the complaining we heard and the predominance of the color burgandy in the uniforms, maybe those defenses should be known collectively as

The Vintage Whiners.

Just a thought...
