Funny coming from a guy that doesn't know how a condom works.
It's still a dumb criticism in my opinion. That's not 'getting worked up' on my part, but just calling it a dumb criticism. No need to get defensive or worked up about it.All Cromartie is saying is Sherman shouldn't be calling himself the best until he plays both sides of the field and covers the number 1 guy most the game. He never said Sherman wasn't good. Some of you Seattle "fans" have really thin skin. It obviously is going to rub people the wrong way when you proclaim you are head and shoulders above everyone, especially your peers. Cromartie is a peer. Everything he said was understandable. No need to get worked up.
most correct and tends to get the player the attention you seeks from such statementsSherman is a self promoter.
Sherman is a self promoter.
there is no doubt Sherman is a self promoter or that he is an arrogant, annoying loud mouth. But that doesn't change the fact that he is a great CB
IF he can back it up on the field then hard to argue with him being a loud mouth if he wants to be. If the players are tired of it then somebody has to shut him up on the field. I would say the Super Bowl did a little for that after his whole "2-4" thing he was doing to the cameras to only then see his team go down. I will say though this past year he was a lot more mellow than the years before that.
Then maybe Sherman shouldn't be calling himself the best until he can play on a defense that allows him to do what Cromartie is saying. I don't think Cromartie is calling out Sherman necessarily for how he plays but for what he says.
The problem with shutting him up is that his biggest critics are typically other corners, no real way for them to do that.
I think those two positions have always been1 & 2 in the diva department and receiver is still on top to me.True...Corners have become the new divas of football. Seems to go in a rotation around the league. Used to be the receivers couldn't shut up. Now every Corner has to have something to say.
I look at it this way.... 3 of the top QB's in all of football pretty much avoid throwing his way on a regular basis... That's all I need to know....

For the sake of discussion, let's say that Revis is the top corner in the game (and personally I wouldn't argue that). If hypothetically the Seahawks traded for him (or another defense running the same kind of Cover 3), would Revis somehow magically become a worse CB?Then maybe Sherman shouldn't be calling himself the best until he can play on a defense that allows him to do what Cromartie is saying. I don't think Cromartie is calling out Sherman necessarily for how he plays but for what he says.
This is a great point. Hell, in the NFCCG Sherman played the last 10 minutes of the fourth quarter with a severely injured arm and Rodgers, the alleged #1 QB in football, still wouldn't throw it Sherman's direction. That is a healthy dose of respect for the man's skills.
Ahhh the Seahawks, Nobodies any good, they're just successful cause of other SEahawks...
Shermans only good cause of ET and Kam
Kam and ET are only good cause of Sherm
The LOB is only good cause of Bennett and Avril
