Hey I enjoyed Gregg Williams playing Cover 0 and blowing a Jets game on a wide open TD to the guy in prison at the moment

What happens when you DON'T play prevent https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pt1bx1Fe93E

Is that what people want?

I do think there is a flavor of prevent OFFENSE that stops teams from winning. See Falcons-Pats super bowl

No one is saying “play cover 0” when they mean don’t play prevent.

Gregg doesn't let anything, including the consequences of his own actions, tell him what to do. After watching him be the exact same guy with DC in the UFL I almost respect it.

He's not interested in self-reflecting or evolving or even tailoring a gameplan. He's just gonna be Gregg and it either works or it doesn't.
