RamBill Here’s the quote from Williams on Laurinaitis: JL has to be an extension of me….he has to be the play caller out there…and I tell everybody all the time is….what defense are we playing? We’re playing the defense that James calls, not what I called.

I don’t often think about JL’s role in calling the defensive plays but it is such an important role on this team. It’s a lot of responsibility. He really is a coach on the field.

yeah there’s a cerebral part to his game that is underappreciated. let the playmakers make the plays. laurinaitis just puts them in positions to make plays.

what i liked most about the vid, what i found most interesting, was what gw had to say about donald and brockers, the synergy between the two guys, brockers’ size and smarts coupled with donald’s stratospheric talent, which allows gw to give them the green light to free lance in their alignments based on what they see, great stuff.

I thot this was inter esting:

Greg Williams: On his coaching philosophies…
“I learned this from Buddy Ryan, and took it a long, long way, I put the game in the players’ hands and a lot of coaches, with their egos, are not going to let the players make specific calls in the game. And I can’t understand that. Players play the game. Coaches guess the game. Coaches are standing over there hoping that they can act like they are more important than what they are. What I learned from Buddy a long time ago is I that watched him take defenses and defensive play-callers and turn them into quarterbacks. James Laurinaitis is that person here. Rodney McLeod is that person here.”
