Do you remember the comments of Antonio Cromartie? He said Sherman was not the best CB in the league.
Go follow the No. 1 receiver. Follow him around for a whole entire game and let’s see what you can do,” Cromartie said in the interview. “Darrelle Revis has done that his whole career. I’ve done that. Patrick Peterson has done it. Joe Haden has done it. (Sherman) is the only defensive back that hasn’t.”
Well the Seahawks superstar responded and boy did he shut down Cromartie.
Sherman called Cromartie’s comments “unfortunate,” then pointed out that Cromartie only made the Pro Bowl last year because the Seahawks were in the Super Bowl and Sherman had to withdraw.
“I think it’s one of the things that’s just the ignorance of the public. How many great left tackles do you see switching to the right side because there’s a great d-end (switching) to the right side? You don’t see it,” Sherman said. “Great players stay on their side and do what they’re supposed to do. How many guys have you seen switching from side to side on a No. 1 defense? We’re the No. 1 defense for a reason.”
