G Williams Presser

[jbcjr14]

Did anyone else catch the GW presser over on redskins.com? The part where a question was asked about Cam Cameron and they have only shown 20% of their offense in the preseason and Williams responds..."Well, we have only shown 30% of our defense so he probably has alot going through his mind right now".

I love it, GW is a gamer and he is setting the tone. Sure hope the D comes out of the funk and brings the trunk!

In sort-of related news, did anyone else catch Part 1 of the Comcast Sports interview with Gibbs this morning?


He mainly talked about Portis and why he didn't play in the preseason but made sure everyone knows he's a VERY hard worker and practiced as hard or harder than anyone, but for legit medical reasons, he should've been held out of the games, but he's about 100% now. CP will be good to go this week.

That is also good news. I am pretty sure it was planned that way but Gibbs being the good natured man that he is didn't want anyone to think he was deceiving anyone about Portis. Who really cares as long as CP is 100% on Sunday Sept 9th at 1pm EST.

Williams pressers are always good. He does a good job of answering the questions and gives good explanations. The guy is clearly arrogant, but thats what you want from D-Coordinator. I'm sure he has the defense ready to redeem itself.

GW always gets me so fired up when he talks about our D.

I love listening to GW. He's a straight shooter, I like his style.

I like it. It's almost time to tee it up!

That is the very part that scares me, Williams often overthinks his defensive schemes leaving his defense out to dry. Last year the D appeared to be in need of getting back to the basics, all the blitzes are unnecessary and we don't have the right personel to call an all out blitz just because it's third down. This is why we were the worse defense (in history) on 3rd. We have a great unit this year and he (Williams) doesn't need to ruin anybodies confidence with all his complicated schemes. Let's keep it simple this year Gregg, let the players make the plays.

I think last year the main problem was the lack of personnel especially in the back seven. That's been addressed. It's back to business as usual this year for GW.

I agree, back to business. I don't really see Miami doing..........anything with the D we have seen thus far.
First string on first string, they have been dominant. It's going to be fun watching the alligator arms in Area 51

I have to totally disagree with you on that. Any coach can put together a basic D that plays straight up football but its the clever coaches who have better scheems which are the top tier coaches. That is what GW does and has always done so maybe you need to go back to his two privious years to see what he can do. Yes last year was a bust so that s why you have to look at more than just last year.

Why do I have the feeling Portis is a hard tackle away from missing the whole season? Am I just being paranoid or do the following things mean a lot:

We now have four RB's.
Portis talked about being traded.
Portis sat out the pre-season.
The Skins are vague about what's wrong with him.
It's been widely projected that Betts will get more carries.
Betts was also protected in pre-season to a degree we would expect a starting back to be protected.

This is a GW post...lmfao. I think you are over analyzing the situation. CP is fine and so is Betts. They will be 100% along with our D come Sunday!

This is HUGE! To have everyone healthy in the defensive backfield allows GW to tee it up from time to time and play the man coverages behind. I think we will see a very agressive defense this week and for many weeks to come so long as the injury bug stays the hell outta DC!
