y should sherman play to his weakness ?

old nikkas stay salty
He calls himself the goat corner. You can't be a zone DB and consider yourself the GOAT of anything. He's a specialist. And a great one. But his value is predicated on the value of the secondary around him. He's not in the discussion for greatest corner and never has been. Not even greatest corner for a season.

Pretty much how I feel.

Most agree Revis better so what was the point?
Because he don't like that nikka. :yeshrug:
I don't think it's out of insecurity because no one informed or who matters would ever put Sherman over Revis. But that doesn't mean people are not supposed to have an opinion just because they were pros themselves. Everything said doesn't have to come from being insecure. We comment all the time as fans and have the same opinions as players often so it's no different if they say it as well if we do. Sometimes it's just the truth and sometimes you just don't like a muthafukka. When it's both, :bustback:

You don't know what you're talking about. So I guess sherm cant get beat either? Every cb plays man and zone coverage, obviously sf runs more zone coverage.

Put your pom poms down
Since you said so, I must not. :beli:
Who said he can't get beat? He's gotten beaten before. Beaten often in Seattle. He's locked zones before too. Quote where I said he hasn't :martin: Quote where I said corners do t play both types of coverages.:martin: You are just taking to be talking breh. I don't care about either of them because neither is the best. I'm just pointing out the truth. If you tight about it, be tight. The fact is Sherman has played every snap almost exclusively in zone. The fact is zone coverage by nature gives more help than man. And Revis has played almost exclusively in man cover. The legion was probably the greatest secondary of all time and Sherman was the 3rd, maybe 2nd best player there during that stretch. I'm more impressed by what he's done in SF because their secondary isn't as talented as SEA was when he was there but we can remove the names and my post that you quoted still rings true.

You said sherm doesn't shut down anything. That makes no sense. Sherm plays man coverage too and he shuts down a whole side of.the field. He was so.good Earl would share to the other cb cuz he don't have to worry about sherm. You just trying to shyt on sherm to prop up revis cuz of the system.

And I can't speak on sf defense as much but saying he plays virtually all his snaps in zone is dumb. Seattle ran a cover 3/cover 1 concept where they ran a press man technique often. So get off that. Obviously they ran zone more. But if they ran zone every play teams would just run zone beaters all day

Both were/are great corners with a ring who are going into the Hall 5 years after they retire. Why hate on or down what the other has accomplished?

You keep bringing up man like Sherm played in man. Just because he played man before doesn't mean he plays in man. :gucci: This ain't as much about Sherm as it is about zone vs man. Youre missing the point thinking otherwise. And Sherm wasn't the press man in that cover 3 press. Of course he's good enough to run a 21 press. But that's also because that secondary was that monstrous as well. I don't know where you're going with that. Of course Earl have help to Maxwell or Browner. Sherman was better than them and Earl can only help one.

I'm not saying Sherman couldn't play man like Revis, I'm saying he didn't. Man relies more on single talent than zone does. One receiver depending on his route can be 2 or 3 players responsibility to cover. When you are a perennial lockdown man cover, it only takes one guy to cover that receiver down, no matter where he is on the field. That's why the Jets could rush so much. That safety isn't needed, that OLB can rush. You have 2 extra pass rushers because that Man has taken your X completely out the game no matter where you put him, or where he goes. You have only 10 players. In zone, you still have that player, he just may not catch anything. You still have to keep those zone players assigned to his route. The Jets,they sometimes ran zone with everyone else other than Revis and likewise, sometimes Sherman was the only one in zone while they ran man or ran man himself. I didn't say he was zone 100% of the time but you know as well that Pete ran zone more than any other coach in the league during LOB.

Sherman ain't no shut down corner, he got burned regularly in Seattle.

Also Sherm out there with a prime Earl Thomas and Kam.

Revis is close to goat status, he was more shut down than most of these dudes.

A very underrated CB is Arenas Williams and Daryl Green, the only thing stopping those guys was they were pretty short by today's standards.

Sherm is 6'1 I think and he got burned regularly.

This is not true at all. Sherm did not get burned regularly. The numbers don't lie

Better in zone isn’t a thing :heh:
Yes it is. Namdi was a pure man to man cb and went to eagles and got ultra exposed. Revis wasn’t good in lovie Tampa 2 defense, unlike somebody popcorn tilman who was a ultra elite in it. Asante Samuels was another elite zone cb
