Simply not true. Even if Richard is "average", he far better than anything we have on our roster at the position.

If you are in to stats, Richard has allowed 12 TD's since he joined the league. Petersen (arguably the best cover corner in league) has allowed 30. He has also been targeted less than any#1 cb over the last 5 years, yet he still leads all #1 Cb's in int's during that time span.

Loudmouth? ... to an extent I would agree, but to say this man "sucks" or "average" is being shortsighted.

I'm with you bro. I don't know who people have been watching over the last couple of years. Richard Sherman is no less than top 5 at his position. Our fans are really picky. I mean yeah, Seattle runs a certain scheme...but isn't it noted that Sean Payton wants to implement that scheme? Who can help implement that scheme better than a All-Pro who's played in it his entire career?
