Gregg Williams on Roman Harper

Danno · 07-30-2011, 04:09 PM

"You have a two year pro bowl player that is back that is young that is continuing to improve, continuing to get better. A lot was said about his last game and its unfortunate you guys don't know much about ball.

All you guys that criticized him for two plays in that last game...you're dead wrong. Because he played pretty well except for two plays. He played poorly on two plays but I could say that about 99% of them out there.

OK? I'm really happy that Roman Harper is back . WE NEED HIM HERE. I'll be a better coach and we will be a better team because Roman Harper is back here."

So, does Gregg Williams not know what he's talking about, or is Roman Harper better than his detractors kept "harping" on?

I would say that Gregg Williams knows a lot more about defensive football than anyone who ever criticized Roman Harper for any mistakes he might have ever made in his career as a Saint. I gotta go with Triple G on this one. If not Roman Harper at SS, then who? You tell me a good answer to that question and you win a prize!

The only people hating on Roman Harper are the ones who know nothing about football. I can say the same about those wh are hating on Shanle also. Both of those guys are defensive studs and we are a better football team with both of them on the roster.

Overpaid, overrated, and we should have signed Mikell to replace him. He was holding back our 4th ranked defense and one of the best secondaries in the league. Now we're stuck for the next 4 damn years with his gray hair, old man feet, and piss poor coverage skills.

Did you just call Scott Shanle a defensive stud? LOL

We are all way to critical of our team. We expect our guys to NEVER make a mistake, NEVER fumble, NEVER miss a tackle, NEVER drop a pass, NEVER throw an interception and on and on. Football doesn't work that way and if it did, it would be as boring as baseball. The trick is teamwork and recovering from mistakes.
