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.

      Nobody likes moral victories, but...

      By Mr. Scot · Posted

      I don't really like the phrase, "moral victory". I get what's meant by it, but does that mean that if you do the opposite (play poorly but win) it's an immoral victory? 🤔

      Team is looking good for next season

      By ProcessBlue2 · Posted

      I blame Evero because he is overrated. Vance Joseph created the defense in Denver that he took credit for. Wilks ran the ball down his throat and Darnold had a 103.8 rtg.  Last year we were decent in yards allowed, and horrible in everything else. Only reason? We kept giving up good field position.  He's had his choice of players to bring in since his scheme is so "complicated." Maybe he should stop trying to be so fancy like running Cover 4 on 3rd and 1 earlier and focus on fundamentals like tackling. These years of Eric Washington, Phil Snow, and Evero must have gotten you confused on what a real defense looked like. Go back and watch the McDermott and Wilks years- this dude is sofT.

      My Personal Takeaway from This Game vs Cheifs

      By Hoenheim · Posted

      I tried to make it a point in the opening post that I don't think the offense is a finished product. I think we still need more talent at WR, better play calling, catch more consistently, elimate ridiculous penalties,  and be more consistency in scoring points. I'm just saying, they look markedly better than last year imo. They have scored 20 or more in 6 games and 30 or more in 2 games. And that's particularly notable considering they only mustered 10 points and 3 points in first 2 games of this year and they got blanked on 0 points two games in a row to wrap up last season . I'd say that's a market improvement.  I'm not crowning them and saying we have a top 10 offense or anything.  I'm comparing them to themselves in recent history.
