Quotes from Sherman on the Packer-Cowboys game on SI

[btcutter]

"Packers rookie Davante Adams catches a dart from Rodgers and takes it 46 yards to the house, cutting Dallas’s lead to one. Cowboys corner Sterling Moore dogged it in pursuit, while J.J. Wilcox flailed on a tackle attempt.

“That’s terrible,” Sherman says. “42 [strong safety Barry Church] is the only one who played through the whole play.”

It would be, to put it lightly, heresy for a Seattle defensive back to give up in pursuit or to hesitate and whiff on a tackle."

"With 11 minutes left in the third quarter, a diving Julius Peppers tears the ball from Cowboys running back DeMarco Murray. Sherman springs to his feet: “Ball out! Ball out!”

The last time I saw him this excited, he was admonishing 49ers wideout Michael Crabtree via Erin Andrews moments after last season’s NFC Championship Game.

“See?” he says of Murray. “He’s been carrying it like that since Week 8! The football gods always get you!”

Really enjoy some of these insights from elite player's perspective.

His excitement when murray fumbles tells me they didnt want to see us

Sherman still has Murray's shoulder pad mark in his chest from when Murray ran over his *** for the winning td in week 6.

And there's no way in hell they wanted to see Dallas, whoever said that. damn shame...

I post on a few boards, and I'll tell you what, most of their fans didn't seem to want to see Dallas again either. They were going nuts when that Dez call went down. I've never seen so many of them so happy.

Before that fumble he was seeing the play that was going to break their back and win it for the Cowboys. Murray blew a TD there.

A day or two before the game on Sunday, @Risen Star made a thread asking about Wilcox. I remember thinking he seemed like a guy with hustle who I'd like to see develop more.

After the loss to the Packers, I dunno if there is a DB i would rather see gone. For as bad as Church looks sometimes, usually, he just gets beat physically. Wilcox was horrific in pass coverage.

They got lucky and know it.

LOL... Seattle wanted absolutely no part of Dallas back in Seattle.

Shows the field awareness some of these guys have if he can diagnose a trap coverage from his couch simply based on pre-snap alignment.

Pass coverage? He is horrible at open field tackles on a wr with a free run. But not coverage.

I want Seattle to BURY GB and that drama queen

I still consider that pass coverage. His deep zone responsibility is to make the tackle.

 

[jblaze2004]

seattle wanted no parts of dallas. They know what happened last time.

 

[kevm3]

He was right about Murray. Most people were getting on Murray for not carrying the ball like he should, and it came back to haunt us.

 

[BAZ]

I really hate Shurman.

 

[MS17]

He is an articulate guy. However, my own translation of "...the football gods always get you!" >> ('We dodged a bullet')

 

[Gameover]

The football gods always get you!

Well be expecting your judgement Sunday! Grandma told me football gods dont like ugly

Seattle D is going to $*^%^ on Rodgers like pigeons on a statue. Their defense has to be licking their chops for this game since he's lame. Early pick 27 -13 Seattle.
