Richard Sherman dropping truth bombs while coming to Cam's aid

Richard Sherman is already on the record as a Cam Newton supporter, but as Super Bowl 50 week kicks off and Newton is the No. 1 topic of discussion, Sherman is coming to Newton's defense again.

Sherman essentially dropped the mic on the "old-school" critics of Newton, not by saying anything inflammatory but by bringing some much-needed perspective to the discussion and snapping the critics back into realizing that football is a game and meant to be fun.

Here's what Sherman said on 710 ESPN Seattle:

"He hasn't done anything wrong to anyone. He hasn't done anything off the field or hurt anyone or committed a crime or done anything. He plays the game like a young kid, like a kid's supposed to play it. This is a game. This isn't life. This isn't government. This isn't military. This isn't anything that's that serious. I think people are taking it out of perspective.

"They're saying he's a bad example for kids. This is a kid's game. Unless he's cursing or putting the middle finger up or pulling his pants down or doing things like that, then I don't get what they're saying. The guy's going out there and playing as hard as he can, living the dream and treating it like that. He's honoring the game in his own way, and I think that old-school way of thinking is why the conversation is going so long."

There really isn't anything to hate about the Panthers other than the success they've had this season. Jealous and bitter fanbases who have never (or just rarely) experienced any success will hate your team for that reason alone. Just wait until you win the SB, it'll only get worse. And if you win another one next year or the year after? They'll hate you for at least a decade. 

Personally, I just love the game of football, and I enjoy watching teams with talent who go out there and have fun while dominating the opposition.

I keep saying that team wouldn't be so easy to hate if it wasn't for their fans and Jesus Wilson's holier-than-thou act.

This is probably why there's that reported Riff, between Lynch and the defense against Wilson. Cause those guys are just REAL, and don't give a damn! LOL

Sherman should know after his comments Superbowl victory comments/tirade of what Cam's going through. . So you can understand him coming to Cam's defense.

Yeah, their fans are sure stupid. Cause, they'll still hate Cam and criticze his antics, though Sherman's dropping sensible knowledge (and has been accused of similar game related stuff as Cam). Go figure.

More respect for ya Mr. Sherman.

    • We could easily pick apart yesterday’s game: dropped passes, blown coverages, bad tackling and red zone issues to name a few. But it was clear that this wasn’t the same team from earlier in the season. They fought back and hung with the champs until the end. That’s what I was excited to see and it gives me hope that we’re on the right track.
    • I think BY played well today and exceeded expectations. I will temper future expectations as he has to string together many games of consistent quality. One game doesn’t convince me that he is a franchise QB or even a guy you want to stick with for another season. One game doesn’t erase all the negative play and limitations from the past couple of years. I hope he balls out and continues to get better but for me the verdict is still out   That said, I think he gave the team and fans hope yesterday which is a lot more than what we had when we woke up Sunday morning. 
    • He was vastly improved today and we need to see more of Bryce the rest of the season to continue evaluate him in order to decide what the heck to do with him at the end of the season. He must play at least like this and improve more from here the rest of the season in order for me to keep him. No more 123 yard passing games and want to see at least this output weekly from him. If this is Bruce improving slowly over time then Canales is even better with developing QB's than I thought he was but still too early to tell and we need to see him the rest of the way as he has at very least earned back the starting gig moving forward.
