Richard Sherman writes a column every week that lets you see inside his head and heart. He is well educated (4.0 from Stanford) and well spoken. He has nothing but praise for Peyton Manning. Did you even read the whole article?
No
There is no question that he is extremely talented, smart, and a tremendous asset to the Seahags team. There is also no question that those who hold his contract ignore anything else that isn't related to on-field play and preparation. Sherman is a commodity to them. Nothing more. MAybe if the Seahags win the Super Bowl, Sherman will grow up. We'll see.
It will be a most interesting game, I'm sure you will agree. As to Denver focusing on Sherman, well, game prep will find as many weak spots as possible in an excellent defense, then Peyton will seek to exploit them. I don't think Sherman is a weakness, so I don't expect they will try to exploit him. Trash talkin' has always been a part of the psyche in professional football. It works to switch focus of some players so it will remain a part of the game.
Okay, so he isn’t a loud-mouthed, ignorant thug - he just plays one in post-game interviews.
I’m in Seattle and during that interview fireworks were going off in the burbs, people were screaming...the city is just pumped! Looked to me like without Sherman that SF would have won. How many times in a player’s life will they make such a HUGE difference when it counts the most. I didn’t blame him...and yeah, maybe he shouldn’t have said it but I give him a pass...
Read the article? C’mon, then we can’t make foolish posts about things we are completely ignoant about.
