Thanks Jurbs, your opinion is always so valuable.
Why do you think ITS likes him.
Thanks Jurbs, your opinion is always so valuable.
Genius!
you have to go back 8 years for any rebuttal... Which of course does nothing to address the point. Maybe you can log in with one of your other user names so we can have a real discussion. We know this one is for trolling.
Id agree with him though. Thomas is the better DB IMO.Thanks Jurbs, your opinion is always so valuable.
Like your opinion that Megatron wasn't going to be very good because he wouldn't be able to get "separation" in the NFL.
Genius!
Right, it's an opinion. Jurbs is the guy who tries to pass opinion off as fact, he's been doing it for years here.Id agree with him though. Thomas is the better DB IMO.Thanks Jurbs, your opinion is always so valuable.

Both are great great players though.l
No more than you passed off calling Sherman the best DB in the league as a fact.Right, it's an opinion. Jurbs is the guy who tries to pass opinion off as fact, he's been doing it for years here.Id agree with him though. Thomas is the better DB IMO.Thanks Jurbs, your opinion is always so valuable.

I said last year that Thomas was the most important player on the Seahawks, but that doesn't necessarily make him the best player.
So far so good. I paired him with Rivers.Jurby....how is RGIII working out for you?
mmmmkay.So far so good. I paired him with Rivers.Jurby....how is RGIII working out for you?
I did not. Most people think Sherman is one of the two or three best corners in the league, it's an opinion that I think he's the best. See how that works?No more than you passed off calling Sherman the best DB in the league as a fact.Right, it's an opinion.

Good analysis, glad someone is more concerned with the actual game than with post game comments.I think he's probably the best zone corner in the league.
A cover three makes you drop hard and fast, and opens things up underneath for quick strikes. His instincts coupled with his size mean he's not very vulnerable there. Lots of picks, and enough size to stop anybody who does catch down there. He'll probably have to be a lot better at the tackling component this year, unless SEA finds a pass rush somewhere to replace the one they let get away. They can create it with LB's and S's, if the team they're playing can't punish them with the TE (as SD obviously did), but that's a lot less reliable than getting that push from the line. And already you can see teams adapting to that change.
Sherman was unquestionably the best zone corner in the league last year because SEA possessed the best zone in the league, and he was their best corner. This year, it remains to be seen if SEA's cover three can hold up without the pressure they used to generate. They're still awfully talented, so they'll probably look pretty awesome against most teams, but zones run into scheme problems in a hurry if all the parts aren't in synch. Sherman will probably see a lot more nights like last night than he did before. If he keeps stopping every short catch for very little gain, he'll be okay, and they'll be awesome again. If he gets forced to make adjustments, holes will open again (like last night), and either they'll struggle, or he'll have to show off his skills as a man corner more often. We'll see.
But through two games, he has yet to stop a pass directed his way.
Both are potential HOFers, given long term health.Peterson isn't on that trajectory, and he may not even end up being the best DB in AZ.Id agree with him though. Thomas is the better DB IMO.Thanks Jurbs, your opinion is always so valuable.

Sounds familiar Lhucks. Get called out for being a doosh then claim you were fishing. Yes, Sherman is the NFL's LhucksI really love how he gets so many people so riled up. Some of you guys act like he fired you from your cushy job.
Well...I guess at the very least Allen doesn't have to explain to his kids how he ran away and hid like a p####y.
That Campbell's soup commercial with his mom is pretty terrible. Aware this is likely to be a softball, but it makes Seattle fans look like fools.
Fair enough. I watch the pregames so as much as I agree you don't have to watch anything I do tend to always suffer through Michael Irvin or every QB who won a Super Bowl over 50 years in age.I don't have to get used to anything. He is the reason God invented the remote control.
"Because I'm a pure zone CB, and would get killed playing man all game against most good WR's."
Yes it was.
He switched with Chancellor at the snap. Sherman swooped inside to cover Paul while Chancellor followed Jackson to the outside. Once Sherman realized that Cousins escaped the pocket and was looking downfield to Jackson did Sherman leave Paul and headed back towards Jackson.
Sherman rolled inside because there was not immediate threat in his deep 3rd. Once the flat guy runs up field and down the sideline he is supposed to get back over the top and pass the other WR he drifted to help on totally over to the S in the middle 3rd.
There's no way Chancellor is going to be able to stay with Desean on a deep route when he (Chancellor) is moving towards the line and will have to turn to cover Jackson. Who is Thomas supposed to be covering? He's at deep safety 10 yards behind anyone; he could have covered the backup TE on the crossing pattern. Sherman blew the coverage.Area51Inhabitant said:
Chanceller is in a trail position by design on that play because Sherman is supposed to be over top. He blew the coverage.
This is the sort of thing classless people do and fans of classless people love to champion. He's a classic love/hate guy. Dennis Rodmanesque. Somehow he gets a pass because he's a highly marketable, smart, black man, to be sure, but mostly because he's mastered the fine art of publicity. He's also made sure to really exploit the "poor kid makes good" angle. He'd be welcomed on my football team, but I wouldn't want my kids to be a fan of his.
I agree with you here that Sherman got beat. Blown coverage is a bit of a embellishment, really what happened was Sherman simply beat by Jackson speed. However you want to describe it, he gave up the TD plain and simple. It happens to every CB in the game, just quite a bit less to Sherman than others.
Correct. It was Sherman's deep 3rd and he had the deep responsibility. The problem with that coverage is he's still very new to it (I don't remember seeing him in it before) and he's obviously nowhere near as fast as Earl Thomas. But yeah, this was certainly on Sherman. But being this was a very new role I don't know that it means much of anything.
