Richard Sherman may leave before the Superbowl is over

Richard Sherman's girlfriend is due to have their first child at any moment.

http://nypost.com/2015/01/30/shermans-pregnant-fiancee-he-might-leave-super-bowl-at-buzzer/

His girlfriend, Ashley Moss, is pregnant with the couple’s first child, a son, and Sherman has left open the possibility he would consider missing the game if she were to delivers the baby on game day.

Well, what would you do? I would gain respect for him if he did leave. You can't miss the birth of a child if you can at all prevent it.

Neat story - I've been hearing about it. I think it's pretty close to a 0% chance he would miss the game. She's also been interviewed saying she wants him to play and that she's not going to let him know until after the game if she does in fact go into labor during the game.

Know this.... What a pregnant woman says and what will happen are two totally different things. She only says she wants him to play because she is testing his resolve to be there. She doesn't actually want him to miss the birth because of a football game.

That is hilarious, and sadly likely true.

She's his GF and not wife. She's going to say AND do the right thing to change that.

Edit : lifetime financial security is most important thing here.

That's a fairly cynical view, but with 3 kids myself she is likely at least saying it and secretly hoping he attends rather than plays.

    • Agreed. A healthy bit from column A (stats) and column B (film) paints the most accurate picture, which is currently that Bryce is not performing up to the standard a 1st round QB (let alone drafted #1 overall) is expected to (statistically). When we dig into the film to see why, we see that while he's having his struggles (not stepping up in the pocket, bailing out early, hesitating on some throws, making occasional bad reads, etc) the team that surrounded him last season was simply awful. Bottom 5 defense, bottom 5 OL, bottom 5 weapons... but somehow one player has to overcome ALL of that in their rookie season? Yeesh... Taking this season into consideration, he started where he left off last season and was rightfully benched. Since starting again, the team has gotten on its first winning streak in a few years and he's made good plays to keep them in the game. Is he lighting it up? Nah... but he is beginning to show the reason so many draftniks had him as QB1a for his class. Re: what the team does next season... who friggin knows anymore at this point T_T. Resign Dalton? Sign Jones? Draft somebody in the mid-to-late rounds? Go with another UFA? Maybe grab an FA that can compete with Bryce for the starting position and draft a rookie to sit and develop? Might be best of both worlds for the team, but ugh... not a fun position to still be in with question marks throughout the position group.
    • Yeah, this is basically the same as asking, "What if Bryce Young suddenly had Patrick Mahomes brain, how would he do?" It isn't happening. This ship is beyond sailed. Send him somewhere else, let us move on and him move on. 
    • Dalton is too close to starting right now. If it hadn't been for a car accident, he still would be. Switching Dalton for Jones does nothing except reduce the backup's age by a decade. One is in his NFL prime, the other is almost in his NFL grave. Not a horrible move if you're trying to improve the team. We've got to get better as a team and a lateral move like that would improve the team. The problem isn't that he's close to starting. The problem is we have a GM that signed off on BY and didn't bring in any serious QB competition for camp, a HC that said yeah, he's my guy until BY poo the bed so bad he couldn't start him, and an offense that's limited because BY can't make all the throws a normal NFL QB can.  The problem isn't that Jones could be an improvement as a backup QB. The problem is he could be better than our "franchise" QB.
