YES, Gregg Williams went over the line in trying to inspire his troops, waaaay over the line. Pay $ for taking out opposing players should never ever be tolerated. Trying to intentionally take out another player with an illegal dirty play is already not allowed. Fine him and suspend Williams and send a strong message going forward to everyone this will be dealt with severely. Done.
However now we have these articles with Dungy and others floating theories on why Manning, Farve and other star players got hurt. We can not start investigations going back years 3, 5, 10 years.
Let's nip this in the bud and move forward. Lay off the sensationalistic stories and quotes of possible disgruntled players or coaches running their mouth.
Everyone has learned the lesson. Move on. A 8 to 16 game suspension and a big is fine.
Let's not go over board with this, Williams was not the only person to ever do this. Let's not demonize him.

100% agree. the cover up and refusal to quit is really the main issue, but like you state Williams is not the first. a variant of this behavior has been around since football began. But I agree with others, its time for it to stop.
