D Coordinator

Well one of our first replacement ideas for the Schwartz leaving to coach the Lions is off the market today. Gregg Williams was just hired the the Saints to be their d-Coordinator. Which is great for the Saints because believe it or not there is talent on that D. Just injuries and a bad coordinator kind of overshadows that. I'm sure Fish has other ideas of what to do and who knows, the Schwartz might not even leave. Thoughts?

McGinnis
He’s got tremendous experience, he’s been with Fisher for years now, he has been the lead assistant to Schwartz (it seems to me) and he was a highly regarded defensive mind before being sucked into the Cardinals buzzsaw… sounds like the guy he may be replacing here, no?

Well dangit
The timing on all that is curious.
Wonder if it went like this:
Schwartz: “Fish I am taking the Detroit job”
Fisher: “Dammit, okay. Good look with that cluster f&ck”
Hangs up phone
Fisher: “Hey, Gregg Williams.”
Williams: “Hey Fish! Do I get my old job back?!”
Fisher: “Nah man, we’re going with McGinnis”
Williams: “Sh#t!… fine!”
Hangs up phone
Then Williams hurries up to call the Saints before anyone announces the Schwartz hire. It’s all a conspiracy!

I think it went more like this:
Schwartz: "Fish I am taking the Detroit job"
Fisher: "Dammit, okay. Good look with that cluster f&ck"
Hangs up phone
Fisher: "Hey, Gregg Williams."
Williams: "Hey Fish! Look man, before you start, I know why you’re calling…"
Fisher: "Yeah?"
Williams: "Yeah. And I used it to extort a better contract out of the Saints! Can you believe it?"
Fisher: “Um… But I thought we…”
Williams: “Yeah, yeah. They offered more money, and you know Payton’s a gonner anyway. Thanks,man. I owe you one.”
Fisher: “Uh…”
Hang up phone
Fisher: “Crap.”

Titans passed on Greg Williams
I believe the Titans passed on Greg Williams because this defense is a stand pat and blitz sparingly type of defense and Williams runs just the opposite. My guess is they will stay in house and try to keep the same philosophy.

I don't necessarily agree with that
Fisher let both guys (Williams and Schwartz) run their deals. I doubt that he is partial to one over the other. He will let whoever comes in run their own system.
