NFL Network Total Access - Which team would instantly go to the Super Bowl if they trade for Sherman


JawnyBlaze

Tomlinson, Heath Evans and fan vote picked among the Panthers, Cowboys and the team that blew a 25 point lead in the Super Bowl. The two players chose the Panthers.  Fans voted the 25pters, followed by Cowboys and us last. 

Tomlinson specifically said Sherman is similar to Norman and we went with Norman so he's picking us, and Evans said the other two teams' defense aren't a player away from being great but our defense would be back to elite with Sherman.

I want to believe them. Only flaw is our offense doesn't seem prepared to perform like it did in 2015...

Also the Falcons don't NEED Sherman they have two good corners already, and just picked up D. Poe...so that's really a no-brainer that if they got Sherman they'd be an elite Defense.

It's all about the OL. We had a perfect storm along the OL last season. We had two guys on the OL who could NOT get hurt - Oher and Kalil. They both got hurt. Oher was probably at most our 6th or 7th best offensive player, but he was probably the 2nd or 3rd most critical player on the offense when you looked at our depth chart - behind only Cam and possibly Olsen. Him getting hurt didn't just massively downgrade the LT position, it also greatly impacted OL continuity which is vital because it forced us to move our RT over to LT and replace a guy at that position too. We've made some moves on the OL and the offseason isn't over yet. Surely we won't have as bad of luck there again next year.

Sure, the O-line was a problem to be sure, but there has to be completeness in our resolution to improve. The fact is that the O-line was middle of the pack. The defensive backfield was...not. 

The O-line is still a little suspect in that we now have two tackles with some injury concerns, but the secondary could use some more experience to settle fan's minds about our cornerback situation. They seemed to be gelling a little bit, but that could have been a mirage.

the 25 point lead meme has done got old. It's not like our team did any better in their outing.

Actually, we did. 

Consider these golden facts:

-The Falcons and Broncos Superbowl was won by the Broncos by a score of 34-19; a 15 point differential. The game was well known for the Falcons sloppy - and horrid - performance.

-The Panthers and Broncos Superbowl had a score of 24-10; 14 point differential. Once again, game known for the Panthers sloppy performance.

14<15. Panthers had a less point differential than Falcons in their catastrophic performances. Panthers held a closer score longer than the Falcons as well.

-The Panthers and Patriots game was lost thanks to a lead blow by the leg of Kasay. The score differential was 3.

-The Falcons blew a freaking 25 point lead against the Patriots; total point differential: 6.

3<6. Whatever the Panthers did in any Superbowl>blowing a 25 point lead.

Doesn't matter how you spin it. Falcons have had worse losses than us by a largeshot.

Which all means nothing in the grand scheme of things. Ultimately both teams lost their Superbowl opportunities.

Despite every Panther fan hoping like hell that the Falcons Superbowl loss will have a lasting affect....reality says their offense hasn't lost anything, and their defense is getting better. 

I don't expect them to have a losing season.

Their offense did lose something: their hotshot OC.

Could Richard Sherman be the Charles Haley of the 80s (For you youngsters Haley bounced back and forth to 5 Lombardis)? I don't think so. But entertaining the trade due to the cap dollar compensation owed Sherman, he's worth no more than our two 2d round picks & a JAG player

Corrected.

    • That he gets worse while at the same time getting more exposure is just typical.
    • And, yes, I've been a slow boil, but watching continually watching shitty displays of football for weeks has me frustrated.  
    • Bryce just didn't maximize Hunter Renfrow's skills. ***rant incoming*** But this isn't just about Bryce Young mistiming passes to Renfrow so bad that he's going to get Renfrow killed or hurt, this is also about incompetentence by Dave Canales. Renfrow can still play. He's putting DBs in a blender out there---making them play twister at the top of routes to keep up with him, and dumb Dave has the nerve to cut him. How about putting Hunter in the best position to help the damned offense by appreciating his skill set, DC? You're letting Bryce's apparent inability to make an accurate throw, or at least his timidity to push the ball down the damned field cloud your judgment and miscalculate talent---or maybe just miss on talent just as much as Bryce misses passes due to playing pussified football. It's fúcking unacceptable.  Speaking of misjudgment, I don't know if it's Dan Morgan or Canales, but Eijiro Evero is not the business at DC. I have said a few times that his scheme is not conducive to run-stopping efficiency. Hell, and after watching some clips of plays, now I absolutely know why. The gaps are at least half open before the play even fúcking starts. You are setting the opposition's RBs up for success with too much damned space at the line and in the second level. If our guys are taken out in these areas---at the line and in the second level---then the defense is screwed because it must rely on the safeties to cover too much ground to make the tackle. At least put Ransom in who is motivated to seek and destroy if you're going to effectively leave the safeties on an island.  And speaking of rookies, get our two new defensive ends more snaps to see if we can't generate more of a pass rush. For all the good the continued sorry display of defense that you're putting out for fan's to see (Ejiro, Dave and Dan), you may as well get the rookies generously involved. Fúck that money we gave second-rate (maybe second-rate) vets, we need a damned spark getting after the QB. Watch it, it's just another breakdown of the sh¡t we were subjected to last week. I say this with all respect: Fúck you, Dave! Fúck you, Dan! Learn how to run a fúcking franchise. Maximize the players, regardless of what you think you're supposed to do by the book. Cut the dead weight before another season is lost and fans lose interest in September. EE is "Ew!" Or for emphasis "EEw!" /end rant
