Who's Going To Be The One To Do This To Sherman?

No this is not another Steve Smith thread. This is a "who will bring the attitude to Seattle on Sunday?" thread. Luke's going to be ready to fight after being out for a month. TD's going to love to make Graham is b*tch again. But who on the other side of the ball will bring that attitude? Of course Norwell has it but I don't see him getting in their heads. Teddy Ginn gonna punk them after catching one deep? Thor gonna get feisty? Cam gonna stiff arm Chancellor to the ground on his way to the endzone while flashing his million dollar smile? Whaddaya say?

Sherman doesn't switch sides or follow receivers. It's very easy to line a dummy receiver across from him, throw to other guys and make him irrelevant to the game. That's why he almost never gets thrown at, it's not because he's this unbeatable lockdown corner that he hypes himself up to be.

In the Super Bowl, New England put Brandon LaFell across from him all game long just so they could ignore that matchup and let Edelman and Gronk shred the rest of their D.

KB would be the only one to come close...or Cam if he ever somehow got near him 1 on 1 like in a run or something. Thing with KB is he usually gets flagged or looked at harder since he's so much bigger.(seems that way to me anyway)

Cam is not like any other QB and mixes it up in the scrum when things break out which is great.

    • I don't think it was fear of the unknown because he tried to hide the extent of the injuries that made him drop. After the drop, the reports I heard were that teams knew what was wrong with his knee and it was something similar to another athlete from a few years ago (honestly don't remember if it was even a football player).  That it was basically one of those things where he should be fine for a while, there isn't a huge concern of immediate injury risk.   But what he has going on with his knee is something that is degenerative and there's little chance he'll be able to play more than 5 or so years on it before he won't be able to play anymore. So basically it was teams knowing if they draft him, he's probably going to be only a rookie contract player and even if he's great, you might not be able to get use out of him on a second contract.  Which in turn makes the drop make sense, but I'm kinda surprised some contending team didn't take him late in the 1st, hoping he'd put them over the top on a SB run but then not even have to worry about giving him a big contract in 4 years too.
    • Depends if they see the writing on the wall with their roster and contracts and decide to bite the bullet and begin a complete rebuild and roster overhaul.  I have no clue why some franchises (IE us) refuse to do this and keep half assing trying to win 8 games or so.  Do it correctly, take your lumps and build a contender.  We shall see what loomis decides.
    • Each team plays 17 games.  I do not see why they don't just have each team play one international game per year.  Neutral site game, 8 home, 8 away.
