Richard Sherman was very happy to see his Seattle Seahawks defeat the New England Patriots in a huge comeback victory at home on Sunday. After the game, he was just as happy to trash talk a little to Tom Brady, telling him exactly what was on his mind.
“They thought [New England] was the greatest ball club to step on the earth. They are 3-3, .500. I don’t know what great ball club is 3-3. We got great players. Me and Earl [Thomas] walked up to [Brady] and we said, ‘We are greater than you. We are better than you. You’re just a man. We are a team. We are a team, you are a single man.’ ”
Sherman was not done speaking his mind after the big win. Not by a long shot.
“It’s not a shock for us, we believe we have a great ball club, we believe we can play with anybody,” Sherman said. “You know, NFL Network and all these pundits think they know everything. Well we keep shutting them up week by week by week. We are playing great.”
Seattle is playing good football in 2012 through the first six games, as their 4-2 record will indicate. They have a couple of good wins, but to come out say that they are the best is simply ignorant.
“We’re built for a heavyweight fight,” Sherman told the Seattle Times. “I don’t think they’re built for a heavyweight fight.”
Should we note that this is a New England team who has reached the Super Bowl twice over the past five seasons? And this is a Seattle squad who has never even won a Super Bowl? I would be careful about who I said is not ready for a challenge.
And while Brady did fail to lead the Patriots to a road victory in Seattle on Sunday, he did throw for nearly 400 yards and a couple of touchdowns. For Sherman to come out and do that much trash talking may be a bit extreme.
While we are at it, should it also be noted that while the Seahawks are 4-2, they really didn’t beat the Green bay Packers? Or that Seattle barely beat the lowly Carolina Panthers and hold victories over teams who are just a combined 9-13 this season?
Perhaps Sherman should do a bit more homework before he takes the next opportunity to run his mouth.

Sorry, comments are closed on this post.
Yawn…another garbage article by a Brady fanboy. Yup, Seattle barely won against GB, barely won against Panthers, yada, yada, yada. Still wins aren’t they Brady Boy? Rogers sacked how mant times? Brady interceptions…how many again…against this crap Seattle team?
Brady started the trash talking, Sherman finished it. I know, I know, St Tom shouldn’t be talked about poorly since he walks on water, heals sick children and is responsible for life on this planet. But he gets what he deserves for running his suck.
Now write some more butt-kissing fluff for your Lady Brady.
another shitbag with something to say, just like your no name Team, Seassttle sucks always has and always will and Seassttle did not barely beat GB THEY DID NOT BEAT GB ha ha
Actually, Mark, if you care to look at the official standings, yes, Seattle DID beat Green Bay.
Lots of bad calls both ways affected the outcome of that game and the final play cannot be looked at in isolation.
By your logic, I’ll just go around and say the Seahawks won Super Bowl XL. Since you wouldn’t accept that, let’s cut this crap about the Seahawks not beating Green Bay.
Yawn Yawn Yawn brady threw 395 yards, sherman only had 1 interception, go jump off a cliff you bradyhater
OMG..this is hilarious!!! just because Brady make a comment (no trash talking my him) about silencing the expected loud crowd in Seattle…Sherman has to trash talk him after the game! Which they barely won…as in most of their wins this year! Sherman should do more homework for sure! I don’t see a ring on his finger..oh right that’s because Seattle hasn’t won a Superbowl.
U MAD BRO! Ha! Ha! Ha! Ha! Ha! Ha! Ha! Ha! Ha! Ha! Ha! Ha! Ha! Ha! Ha! Ha! Ha! Ha! Ha! Ha! Ha! Ha! Ha! Ha! Ha! Ha! Ha! Ha! Ha! Ha! Ha! Ha! Ha! Ha! Ha! Ha! Ha! Ha! Ha! Ha!
Brady talked his own trash before the game stating he was going to shut the 12th man down and turn them against their own team. Brady opened his mouth and Sherman put his foot in it- rightfully. It’s funny to me – I literally chuckle – that the haters of the Seahawks (including NFL network) try to “dumb down” the fact that they have just enough offense, along with their massive defense, to make them a team to be feared. After they’re win over the Niners on Thursday it will put them in the lead- then no one can say a word.
count the rings, not to mention the national championship. That zero needs to get some hardwear and his zero for a coach needs to do somehting before they start talking. we’ll see where New England is at the end of the year compared to Seattle. What was that jigs name again. I can’t remember
I’m not sure how you can talk up New England’s stature like this, with a straight face:
“Should we note that this is a New England team who has reached the Super Bowl twice over the past five seasons? And this is a Seattle squad who has never even won a Super Bowl? I would be careful about who I said is not ready for a challenge.”
And then say we should discount how good the Pat’s are by saying this:
“Or that Seattle … hold[s] victories over teams who are just a combined 9-13 this season?”
Which is it? Are the Pat’s too good to trash talk? Or are they no good and the Hawks victory is unimpressive?
