    Twice....... Sherm had one PI called in addition to the tip. Your point is of course correct. Difficult for a DB to make plays when the opposing offense refuses to risk turnover by throwing the ball his way, but that does make him a significant part of the game. This all seems obvious...... could Crab have been giving Sherm a backhanded compliment?

    Good call, forgot the hold

    Who would have thought that the new Deion Sanders would hail from fucking Stanford?

    I'd still take Sanders in the return game though.

    Yeah, but I'd take Sherman in run support.

    Deion's the best of all time, but Sherman's pretty damn good.

    To be fair, Sherman is going to need to play at the highest levels for many more years before comparing him to Deion is even worth talking about. Sherman is a friggin baller, and if he is still eating guys up like this in 5-6 years, then we can break out the Deion comparisons. I was never huge fan of Deion, but damn man, that guy was dynamite and the best cover corner for a decade.

    Why weren't you a Deion fan? He wasn't classy?

    that's accurate. I agree with dnc, Sherman > Deion in run support, though I never bought into the hype that Sanders was a particular liability against the run game. Most great cover corners are a little light to be taking on NFL backs running down hill.

    one of many things I'll always remember about Sanders was Steve Young's view of him. Young, it's been said, was disapproving of Sanders on a personal level, but in an interview he was one of the first guys to describe him taking taking away an entire quadrant of the field. "You just put out of your mind any notion of going in his direction with the ball." that Young/Rice/Jones/Taylor passing game was, in my view, the most lethal ever (and I'm a Dan Marino fan), and to hear the trigger guy, who probably doesn't even like Sanders, freely acknowledge that when you played him you just crossed that part of the field out of your game plan, that says a lot.

    Sherman is pretty damn good though. Agreed.

    Pete Carroll is going to make one hell of a full time GM / VP for a team.

    The mother fucker can build a team.
