Breh Sherman ain't shut down shyt. The Falcons strategy was to go at Sherman and they did, Roddy & Julio beat Sherman on numerous occasions in that game, it wasn't just the TD Roddy scored over the top.

If you've got a gameplan & QB who isn't afraid to take chances you can beat SEA's defense. We did it in the playoffs a few years ago & it can happen again
But did you win? :sas1:

It's fukking simple when you read the rest of the post. :beli:

Someone can be technically the best at something but not be the most effective at any given time. That damn Win share stat people like to toss around is an example. In 05-06 no one woulda said that Dirk was the hands down BEST PLAYER in the NBA...you had nikkas like Kobe dropping 81, D-Wade in his prime, Nash won the MVP....but if you look at the stats Dirk was more EFFECTIVE at getting his team wins. Not the best, but the most effective. Look up the win shares if you think i'm bullshytting.

People say Mayweather is the most technically sound BOXER in the game, but people still say Manny would give him the beats...why? Because in his prime he was EFFECTIVE.

The best burger might be from Burger King, but it may not be as filling as one from 5 Guys.

Em in his prime might have the best technical skill-set of any rapper out....but he was not always the most potent or most lauded rapper in known circles.

There's more to being a CB than just knocking down passes.....you just exposed yourself as not understanding some of the finer points of sporting, friend. :ufdup:

You sounded dumb to me so I wanted clarity on wtf you were getting at. If someone is the most effective at something their job description says they should do than they're also the best at it.

The whopper and eminem examples were both bad within the context of this discussion. Why you comparing burgers to shut down corners breh? Technical rapping isn't the only ingredient to being the best emcee and if the "job description" of a whopper is to be the most tasty then yes it's fine to say it's better than a five guy burger if that's what you believe. The best in both cases would depend on criteria, but in the realm of competition and measured statistics it isn't a stretch to say "the most effective" is the best. I don't know wtf the "most effective burger" would mean, but the most effective corner immediately draws a clear picture that leaves very little argument.

I haven't heard someone say Manny would beat Mayweather with a serious face in years btw.

Not really man. If you are at work and you are considered the best, but someone else had an idea that would be more effective at the time...that doesn't all of a sudden make them the best.

Best is being effective over time.

Most effective doesn't equal being the best at one point in time. Sherm as it stands currently is the most effective CB in the game as just his presence on the field changes a teams usual game plan. Doesn't mean he's the best...thats a title you get through time.

Honestly I can't even hate on this dudes hustle. He's managed to Flavor Flav his way to Darrelle Revis level respect without actually matching top receivers. Fake it till you make it:yeshrug:. Respect

Regardless of whether you're covering an opposing team's #1 or #2, you know you're one of the best when a QB like Aaron Roders won't even look your way. Rodgers is looking shaky all around this season. He needs to focus less on fukking men and more on football.

What Revis was doing pre-injury is head and shoulders better than anything Sherman has done. He actually was taking the top receivers playing out of the game week in and week out...with no pass rush whatsoever. That said, Sherman's good...but I think he's overrated.

ATL…overly


Video doesn't lie. The touchdown was on Kam. Sherm was breaking up passes left n right that game


The touchdown was on both. Sherman got beat expecting safety help. Kam deserves blame for getting beat, but Sherman was still running stride for stride with Roddy.

If you look at the video in its entirety, it's backing up what i said to do: Attack SEA and you will get yards. Sherman got attacked, he won some, he lost some and we missed a few passes (Matt was late on an inside post route to Roddy that should've gone for a TD in the first half)

thats bullshyt. attack seattle and youll end up like broncos in the SB

all that garbage about vanilla offense and bad playcalling is just that -garbage.

the best way to have a chance against seattle is not to turn the ball over, and have a good defense and run game
non-suprisingly, this is a good way to win games and championships as well :heh:

whats funny is good coaches like sean payton understand that concept. sean payton was running the ball all day long in offs against saettle...and saints were in a closer game than the broncos or saints in the first game against seattle of last season

but on the coli idiots will say 'oh hes not airing it out, hes timid/p*ssy/other garbage'. its common sense but everyone wants the qbs to be the heroes and air it out against seattle just like they do against garbage defenses :heh:

Uncertain grounds
Packers not throwing at Sherman helps his reputation doesn't prove his skill. People seem to be missing this. Also all that shyt about offenses not supposed to adjust to defenses is wtf status

thats fair and i agree largely i suppose. id maybe slightly rephrase it to "its a testament to the perception of his skill" by the packers..it definitely doesnt prove or disprove his skill but he has proven to be skilled in the past and without being challenged no one can say he fell off yet. it bolsters his reputation amongst teams perhaps but many individual players and people are saying otherwise in that it shows he's limited and should diminish his reputation because he doesnt move around as much as others.

btw its being overlooked that he is one of the best tackling CBs in the game

Yea the Packers playcalling was pretty bad this game, it's clear they are not built to play power football which is still winning football even in the QB era.
