Relentless Khalil Mack rushes Chargers’ defensive turnaround with big Lions test next
LA TimesHe has elevated his play to levels of the past, almost to a time when he was named the NFL’s top defender. “It’s about how unselfish he is and how for the team and for this defense he plays,” Chargers linebacker Eric Kendricks said. That’s a reflection of the leadership of a guy like Khalil, who’ll get his nose bloody and make those tough tackles.” The Chargers just sacked New York’s Zach Wilson eight times and are coming off consecutive elite performances, dominating Chicago and smothering the Jets. “The NFL demands your respect today,” Staley said, “not predicting what’s going on this Sunday or what’s happening in a couple of weeks.” While the defenders have been more in step over the last two games, their celebrations have been similarly choreographed, the Chargers heeding the words of coordinator Derrick Ansley, who urged his defense to have more fun. “We’re having a lot more fun and enjoying playing together.” After victories of 17 and 21 points, the Chargers are underdogs Sunday and likely facing another four-quarter fidget festival.
