I dunno, it's not like Berry played well against the Patriots but most of the secondary is ass, I don't get why people are so bent out of shape about Berry sucking in a game when he barely played all year. I have no doubt he put in a better performance than Parker would have. Berry had 5 tackles including 1 stop and I'm willing to bet Parker would have whiffed on 3 of those 5.
People said that was Sorenson's "best game of the year" and he still gave up 75 yards in coverage on 8 targets and played like garbage with the exception of that good tackle on 4th and 1. His reception was pretty lucky, it's not like it was a result of great coverage. And we paid like $5m for that garbage this year.
Lucas looks like he could be a decent rotational guy but was really a non factor in limited snaps.
Ford got paid $9m this year to disappear like a god damn submarine in the biggest game of the year.
I'd be considering cutting Berry if it wasn't for the injury thing as you gotta consider all options, but I have way more hope of Berry having an 1st quartile season next year than I am of Sorenson or Lucas or Murray being in the top 25% of safeties.
