For the Seahawk haters...

Sherman takes shots at Wilson

San Francisco 49ers cornerback Richard Sherman will return to Seattle on Sunday for the first time since the Seahawks cut him in March. The former Pro Bowler said there's no bad blood heading into the reunion. But he didn't exactly have warm wishes for a former teammate.

Sherman was asked Thursday if he was ready to go against Seahawks quarterback Russell Wilson and if the 49ers could limit him from making plays outside the pocket. He downplayed Wilson's ability. 

"Yeah, I've also seen him throw five picks in the game, so you see what he's capable of on both sides of it," Sherman told reporters. "You understand that he can be defended, so you go out there and give it your best shot."

Wilson threw five interceptions in a loss to the Green Bay Packers in the 2016 season.

While Sherman said he doesn't have "any ill will towards" coach Pete Carroll, he described his relationship with Wilson as nonexistent.

I think Sherman is just about done. Granted, his "lost the Super Bowl" gif will be around forever.

The talk about strife in the Seahawks locker room has been around for years, but they've always denied it.

I'd say old "Danger" Russ clearly isn't is popular with his teammates as the Seahawks would like you to think.

i thought he was one of the top CBs this year, or did his performance drop off since i heard that

Haven't followed him closely for the entire season. I know he was getting burned a lot early in the year and the 49ers aren't that good.

I don't think that's true, he's been consistently pretty damn solid this year. Not his former top 3 corner level, but consistent above average starter. I don't see any reason why he won't stick in San Fran for several years, barring injuries. And before last year I believe he was never injured.

Well, if he does, then the back and forth between he and Wilson could get... interesting.

    • Just another 1st round QB that never paid off for the team that drafted them or traded for them. It's been like this since the SB began. 36 QBs have now won the SB & only 13 of them have been 1st rounders winning with their original team. Namath 1968, Griese 1972, Bradshaw 1974, McMahon 1985, Simms 1986, Aikman 1992, Elway 1997, Roethlisberger 2005, P.Manning 2006, E.Manning 2007, Rodgers 2010, Flacco 2012, & Mahomes 2019. Only 3 have taken longer than 5 seasons as the starter to win a SB.  4  6  5  4  6  4  15  2  9  4  3  5  2 [the years it takes for these 1st round QBs] 5  1  4  1  3  1  1  2  3  4  [10 of the 36 have won a chip with their 1st team that haven't been drafted in the 1st round. These are the years it took them as a starter] What stands out? Only 2 of these QBs have lost their first championship appearance. Elway took 4 years as a 1st rounder & Hurts took 2 years as a 2nd rounder. Of the 10 non-1st round QBs, 2 are 2nd rounders, 3 are 3rd rounders, 5 are 6th rounders or later. Please stop wasting time on drafting 1st round QBs with such a high failure rate. The remaining 13 QBs are traded or free agent signings. Stafford, Favre, Young, Williams and Dawson are the 5 trades. Peyton Manning & Tom Brady also won for teams as free agents on a short stay as well as being drafted. The lesson here is don't waste your franchise on farming up 1st rounders for the league, and steer clear of trading for a franchise QB. Stick to finding that championship QB by drafting them outside of the 1st round or through free agency.  
    • I lost most of the respect I had for Fox in 2010. He should have resigned if he hated the job that much. Instead he stuck for his paycheck and let stuff go to hell.    I burned out on Ron too but my deal breaker issue with him was away from football and after he was gone from the Panthers. He may have been out of his depth but never quit on us. 
    • From where they were one year ago to now, pretty incredible. I mean, say what you want about Vrabel he is no Jerrod Mayo.
