Changing of the guard? New D best?

I wonder if the league will look back on Sunday's game as the defining moment when the league's best defensive player for a decade officially handed over the baton to the new number 1 best defensive player?

It looked like Donald was giving the young pup a lesson in "I'm still here at no1" with his 1st half showing.

Enter an injured young star who gutted it out and took over the game in the 2nd half, ending it with a strip sack........game over!

What a game to stake your claim when the defacto number 1 is sitting on the bench on the other side watching.

Actually, less Donald handing over the baton and more Parsons ripping it out his hand saying "this is mine now".

Hope he was able to trade jersey with Donald, something he had said he would love to have in his man cave.

I think it is a little early. Also in the NFL today it is more about biding your time because at the pace Parsons is going he will be used up and sucked dry. To be the best you have to have the longevity otherwise you are a footnote in the history of the game.

Maybe Donald is now thinking the same about Micah.
