Sherman's outbursts

It sounds like Pete has had enough....he may actually punish him this time. It's the right thing to do. You can't have guys being that insubordinate multiple times. I agree Bevell calls dumb plays too much. Throwing a fit (again) like that shouldn't fly though. He already did that with Reeeeshard. It's over the line. I will now step off the soapbox.

    Some teams just aren't destined to wear multiple rings, Race.

    Sherman's act only works when the team is winning. On a losing team he's the cancer you want to get rid of asap.

    I would agree if the Seahawks were 5-9. They aren't. Shut down corners don't grow on trees.

    Last time Sherman was on a losing team his "act" was so cancerous that team won the Superb Owl two years later.
    Your right, I remember 2011 and how vocal Sherman was after he became the starter the final 10 games. He couldn't keep his mouth shut during his weekly press conferences, or after the games

    Yep. This will be good for the team. Bevell's a douche who is more worried about getting credit for OC brilliance than winning.

    You can bet Sherman isn't the only player thinking this.

    First and goal from the one and you try some stupid pass? No.

    Fuck Jim Moore, but it's funny to see how players react to the first non-softball question thrown at them from the pussy Seattle media. Sherman would have been torched in Philly after his whining last week.

    I've defended Sherman through the years because he's basically just fucked with his opponents, but now he's publicly trashing his own team. Ship him to Cleveland if he can't keep it in house.

    Richard Sherman at the end of his press conference today went up to Jim Moore and SAID IT TO HIS FACE! That if he continues to ask stupid questions he will ruin his career.

    Awesome.

    Sherman is kind of thin skinned, but a lot of great players have a little bit of a personality disorder. They use fake motivation.

    I was watching something non Tom Brady and he remembers every slight from back when he was drafted and makes snide remarks to everyone that doubted him.

    Pete cares too much about winning to jettison Sherman. It will eventually happen, but not until he has quality CB's to take his place.

    Sherman is right though.

    That's not the point. Sherman is probably one of my top 3 favorite Hawks of all time but there's a line. Most people can't go around acting like this at work. Pete's unorthodox kumbaya stuff seems to work but atca certain point you have to lay down the law.

    Sherman exposed the bullshit lack of accountability within the coaching staff.

    You're too busy shooting the messenger to know what the real issue here is.

    Comparing the jobs of star athletes to an accountant or salesman is dumb.

    jim moore is a fucking cunt. but there is a line. pete seems to have a pretty good grasp of how to handle a locker room, so I'll defer to him

    The biggest problem of the whole thing is that like Boobs says, Sherman is 100% right in what is saying

    After the Bills game a month ago or so, Tom Cable went out in the media and felt comfortable enough in his job status to tell the assembled media that the Seattle offense only ran 3 out of the first called 10 run plays correctly. Bevell is now running an offense which is in the bottom half of the league in DVOA.

    So do the coaches and Carroll get tough questions about this? No, the pussy Seattle media wants to gargle their nuts instead, and instead ask the "tough" (i.e., condescending) questions to the players like Sherman -- I'm surprised Jim Moore didn't follow up his questions by calling Sherman "boy" and accusing him of being "uppity" about the playcalling, before begrugingly acknowledging Sherman as "well-spoken." Sherman shouldn't have threatened to ruin his career (unless he had the power to, because Moore is a talentless fucktard, and I would have fully supported that) but I can absolutely understand his anger.

    So while I'd like to feel like Carroll can figure out how to manage this in the locker room, this is a pretty new thing for his system. "Always compete" works great in 3-4 year windows, but it's uncharted territory for managing players on second and third contracts, particularly if you are applying competition and accountability so differently across both sides of the ball. Let's also not forget that Earl Thomas was sort of also throwing shade at the offense on Twitter before the Rams game (and still floating retirement as a possibility), so just dealing with Sherman likely doesn't solve the broader problem.

    When my Willingham book came out in 2011, I was radioactive to everyone in the Seattle media. People I had known for years suddenly wouldn't return my calls. As I recall, only Jim Moore remained the same, and it wasn't because he was a Coug.
