Hahaha. I got so mad yesterday after Sullivan missed a tackle and then Campbell cleaned up 2 yards later. Turned like a 4th an 6 to like a 4th and 4.

And I was mad because Petey Carroll might go for it rather than punt it.

And I was like, "so this is what first world defensive problems is like"

Defense finally starting to look something.

Very impressive IMO, despite an unprecedented early red zone streak on defense. Fluke blowout loss week 1, missing multiple all pros to injury, crazy COVID games, missing a whole position group, coaches and reigning NFL MVP. And playing on the road 6 of the first 10 weeks.

Excited to see if this D can remain an upper echelon unit, just need the O to start finding some rhythm, hopefully we can see some of that when/if Bakhtiari and Myers get back.

Sounds like Mercilus is done for the year.

ouch.

And people weren't happy paying him $5M. Should get a nice little payday from this years performance if it keeps up.

These situations are always really interesting to me because he has a bad history and he is now on a team where street free agents are even coming in and playing really well.

Seems to me to be more of a system benefit and being surrounded by a great competitive culture.

I hope he gets paid for his sake. But I would be hesitant to pay him.

I agree, but if his market is light, I would consider bringing him back. But I imagine someone gives him at least a healthy 3 year(1 year prove-it) deal over what we can offer. I hope it happens for his sake and ours.

I hope y'all never find yourselves in an abusive relationship because you'd be taking her back five minutes after every apology telling all your friends "I think this time really is different"

But it hurts so good YoHo! Sorry, but yes, I would take King back. But probably only on another 1 year deal similar to his current one. Anything more than that and I move on.

I've complained about King plenty, thing is he was usually hurt when he played poorly, and thats the only reason I'd be leary of resigning him, he's usually playing at less then 100%

I would pass on King. At minimum because of availability. I think Sully, Douglas and drafting a slot CB is the way to go.

The players I want back are Mercilus and Campbell. I put them way ahead in priority of King. Whitney Mercilus is really interesting now with his injury.

I'm assuming we won't re-sign Rasul for 1 reason or another. Sully I don't recall his status. I'm big on Jean-Charles's future as well as a slot guy. But we need to make sure we have at least a 3rd outside option after Jaire and Stokes. But that may just be another rookie next year, which I'm ok with.

We very well could find outselves in a situation where Kings availability issues make him affordable to us considering out '22 cap, and Rasul plays so well this year that he is no longer affordable to us considering our '22 cap.

I like King so I have no problem bringing him back for 4million or less.
