Richard Sherman may leave before the Superbowl is over

Richard Sherman's girlfriend is due to have their first child at any moment.

http://nypost.com/2015/01/30/shermans-pregnant-fiancee-he-might-leave-super-bowl-at-buzzer/

His girlfriend, Ashley Moss, is pregnant with the couple’s first child, a son, and Sherman has left open the possibility he would consider missing the game if she were to delivers the baby on game day.

Well, what would you do? I would gain respect for him if he did leave. You can't miss the birth of a child if you can at all prevent it.

Neat story - I've been hearing about it. I think it's pretty close to a 0% chance he would miss the game. She's also been interviewed saying she wants him to play and that she's not going to let him know until after the game if she does in fact go into labor during the game.

Know this.... What a pregnant woman says and what will happen are two totally different things. She only says she wants him to play because she is testing his resolve to be there. She doesn't actually want him to miss the birth because of a football game.

That is hilarious, and sadly likely true.

She's his GF and not wife. She's going to say AND do the right thing to change that.

Edit : lifetime financial security is most important thing here.

That's a fairly cynical view, but with 3 kids myself she is likely at least saying it and secretly hoping he attends rather than plays.

    • So the last guy who had the job got hired by his former team directly into a role he has no direct experience in?
    • Hard to pass up millions for a couple of days work per week for a coaching gig in the NFL that is 60-80 hours each week during the season and a more relaxed 50 hours a week during the off season. Yeah, I'd love to see him as our DC but hard to see him giving up the cushy job there if he gets it. And he's going to be a great commentator for the network.
    • Really, I think that is where negotiations come in. If you've got a QB getting you to 10 wins but statistically he's not a great performer, then you say look you can take $22 million or you can try it on the market. Because let's face it, out there, any leadership skills that we're seeing aren't going to be on the table, it's just going to be performance and that lands him in the QB2 market, which is much, much less lucrative (although any of us would love that money).  No one is saying that Bryce will be a $50 million QB, barring something short of a miraculous jump. I'm just saying that if we are winning somehow with him at the helm, then it would be fuging stupid to dive back into the rookie pool all over again. Let's say we do hit the 10 win mark, heck, let's call it 11 and a second round in the playoffs. I think we can all say that would be a really uplifting result and one that should be doable if we have good play. What do we do then? Here's what I would offer if I were Morgan and Tepper. $25 million a year for 3 years, each year with up to $10 million in incentives for touchdowns, wins, playoff depth, being under 10 interceptions, completing a full season, passing yardage milestones, taking less than 15 sacks. Look, Bryce isn't a Ferrari, he isn't a Corvette, or a mid-level BMW. He's probably a new Toyota Sienna that will definitely get you somewhere and bring the whole team along with it, no fuss but not a lot of pizazz.  And really, it's about the destination, not about what drove you there.
