Law would have also been pursued and acquired given our prospects in being a playoff team.
The D was a work in progress and DV was big part of it.
Now that he and AS are gone all their naysayers are coming out claiming the D is great now they are gone. Not fair.
I'm happy the D is finally turned the corner, but don't give all the credit to Herm. Give his DV some credit for leaving some kind of solid base to work from.
Unfortunately, DV and AS left with our O's keys and we can't get it out of the garage.
If DV/AS were still here we would be 2-0 going into our bye week.

Not quite true. This year's D has more talent than any D during the Vermeil-era. Even compared to last year, this year's D has the likes of Ty Law, Tamba Hali, James Reed, Ron Edwards, Pollard/Page.
