One thing that was telling was that after that TD before the half, King on the sidelines was half grinning. Like an "Okay, you got me" grin on his face, as if it was a scrimmage. It's hard to project, but none of his teammates were coming over and telling him it was okay, that he'd get them next time, we got your back, etc. And his whole demeanor and how his teammates reacted made me wonder how open he is to coaching: does he think he's better than he really is? And then you watch the rest of the backfield when they make a play. The only guy going way overboard celebrating a hit is King, even if the catch is 15 yards down the field.
What it makes me wonder about is the coachability of King, and if he thinks he's "all that and more." He sees more action because no one throws to Jaire's side, so he gets more chances to make plays -- does that give him an inflated sense of self? I guess what I really wanted him to do after that TD yesterday was to look pissed off, to be angry at how he could let it happen, to be upset at letting the team down. Instead, he looked almost... "oh, well. Next time I'll get him."
Maybe it's projecting, but when you see the progress of some of the other DBs like Savage, Greene, etc., and you see how King has stayed at a plateau forever, ya gotta wonder... In the end, I'll be glad to see him gone.
