Rams D - Gregg Williams

[RZA]

The Rams D is legit. I haven't seen hitting like that since the Seahawks Super Bowl run. That said I thought there were a few occasions were they crossed the line and assumed it was because the have Williams coaching them.

What do people think of him?, I don't like the guy but his defences are nasty.

That said we toughed it out, Stills bouncing back up and laughing after getting blasted by Alexander shows how tough a team we now are.

Williams is dirty...but not as dirty as the head coach for the Rams. That dude has always had defenses that seem to "cross the line." Little cheap shots that don't get called.

They have a legit top D with guys that pursue and throw themselves around. Their front four, in particular, is top shelf.

Uber dirty. What the link below doesn't mention is the audio exists because they were doing a special on steve gleason, who was present for the tirade and is currently dying from head injuries (most likely) caused during football. Think about that for a second.

I thought the guy that hit Stills led with the crown of the helmet. Isn't that an illegal hit?

We certainly have not gotten any favors from the officiating crews the last two weeks. Will leave it at that.

Wasn't Williams the DC in NOLA for bountygate? if so, 'nuff said.

Williams has a hard hitting "D" in an undisciplined kind of way. They are tough and try to hurt you......but will also cross the line a lot because that is the culture. Case in point is the Donald hit on Tannehill on that final drive....totally unnecessary and a deliberate hit with his head. Big penalty at a bad time.

That hit on Stills earlier in the game was a brutal hit.....I think he lead with his helmet, but obviously the ref didn't agree. Regardless, the defender was trying to hurt him in that instance.

Wasn't he the Saints D-coordinator during the whole Bountygate scandal?

Correct

Greg Williams should be banned from the game, he is a P.O.S that got caught cheating. Why in the hell is he allowed to still be coaching? Double standards as always!

i didn't know this existed. Wow. That's disgusting.

They're a legit defense who we scored back to back tds on in the waning minutes of a hard fought game. Cannot stand Roman and can't believe he only got a one year suspension for his role in bounty gate. I always thought that was ridiculous.
