I've been moved on from GW.. the Titans are irrelevant & will remain that way!

I'll say this about that SF game... the defense kept us close in that game after the offense continuously turned the ball over, which gave the offense time to get themselves together and make that late push. But the defense let us down in the end with those 2 ridiculous drives by Alex Smith and Vernon Davis.
So yeah we can blame the offense for the turnovers, but the defense shares blame as well... gained the lead TWICE late in the game and couldn't close the deal.

Yep. People seem to forget how truly hideous the offense was that game. We lost PT early and took most of the game to recover from that. The defense did truly keep us in that game, as it really should have been a blowout. It's kind of funny that after saving us all game long, it would be the defense that would blow it so badly in the final minutes.
5 turnovers.
Flame if you will, but I think the GW hiring was the most significant new piece of the 2009 SB. I also think GW was the main reason we lost to the 49ers. Interesting article.
Gregg was a lame duck coach, I honestly dont think he cared anymore at that point. He knew he had a new gig lined up with the Rams.
How any organization, player, or coach could ever have any trust in Greg Williams is beyond me.
GW sold out the entire Saints Organiztion to save is own butt. What the media and most everyone else never caught on to is the reason GW is coaching again this season is because he said and did whatever the NFL told him to including lying about players and coaches statements. Sean Payton wasn't going to admit to something he didn't do regardless if it meant not being reinstated early.
According to the NFL own version of events GW was the one who brought and instituted the p4p system to the Saints yet he didnt even get the most severe punishment! That alone should tell you something smells really fishy. The Saints Organization as a whole faced more severe penalties than GW, the last one still to come in the second round of this year's draft. But even if you just compare a head coach losing a year's salary vs a coordinator's salary it's not even close, not to mention that the life expectancy of an NFL head coaches job is so much shorter in general than a coordinator. Greg Williams has proved that when it comes crunch time he will sell out anyone to save his own hide, why would anyone trust him again. He certainly doesn't deserve a second chance in my book unless he came completly clean and told the truth about it all. That won't happen until afte he retires and writes his book!
Go screw yourself Greg Williams! I hope it bites the Titans in the a** for hiring him!

Yes he was a lame duck coach, if I remember Sean Payton said GW wanted to know if the Saints were going to give him a new contract, because he needed to let Jeff Fisher and the Rams know if he was going to take the Rams DC job
I think Rob Ryan is a direct attempt by Sean Payton to bring back much of the Greg Williams era.
