Richard Sherman
Hey, everybody. I appreciate you joining us as always. You guys are phenomenal. You're the best in the world. You're watching the Richard Sherman Podcast, but if you could do me a huge favor and, and hit that sub button, it would be greatly appreciated. You would do a. A service for your boy Sherm. And I tell you what, I got your back. You got my back. All love. Welcome back to the Richard Sherman Podcast. And what a game for The San Francisco 49ers and Brock Purdy. Phenomenal game. Haven't punted since November. Executed from the first drive to the last drive looked amazing. I mean, the, the interception was something, you know, high pass, a little sloppy, but whatever. The defense ended on a high note with a pick six from D. Winters. This was a good game. This is a good game from the offense. Now, I know on the defensive side there are some concerns and they're warranted, they're merited. This defense has to step it up. And, and they're the, the cupboards kind of bare right now. You know, there's not, there's not a lot where you're like, hey, we have such and such coming back. We have this guy coming back. This is what it's going to be. So these guys are going to have to play better, they're going to have to step their game up, they're going to have to tighten things up. Gonna have to run coverages that aren't isolating the safeties, because anytime you run cover two in a red zone, they're going to isolate those safeties and they're going to have their way. And that's what the, the Colts did. That's what Philip Rivers saw on tape. And that's. Whatever happens, whatever works down this stretch for offenses is what you're going to see in the playoffs. And Robert Salah knows that, Kyle Shanahan knows that. And I mean, this defense is going to know that. That's the hard part and that's the concerning part for The San Francisco 49ers team is there's not a lot of veterans on this defense right now. And when you're in the Playoffs and you don't have experience, you usually learn some hard lessons and, and those lessons help you for the future, but they don't help you for the now. So let's hope Robert Saleh and, and Kyle Shanahan get this defense tightened up and get them prepared because I, I, I, I would imagine Salah's coaching his butt off and he's putting them in as best of a position as he can, as good of a position as he can. But he can't go out there and make the plays for him. He can't cover guys for him. And it's hard in that game. You saw he tried to switch it up. He tried to run, man, they were getting beat on crossers. Philip Rivers was identifying it. He tried to run zone. He was picking it apart. He was finding, finding the, the weaknesses of the zone and exploiting it. Tried to bring pressure. He was figuring that out. So I know fans are like, man, you know what? Why is he not bringing more pressure? Why is he? Because, because the more pressure he brings, the more questions you're gonna have. The more he tries to attack a veteran quarterback like that, the more big holes in the defense. There's going to be huge play in the game for from Alfred Collins. A huge force fumble and sack. That was a great rush by him and, and Sling slingshotted himself forward. Huge play by him. Huge play by D. Winters. We talked about. Those are things you can build on you, you hope those two guys are continuing to gain confidence. CJ west had a sack in a game, but this is a game that, that I know defensively Robert Salah is going to take a hard look at and he's going to be critical of these guys. He's not going to take it easy and say, hey guys, good job. We won't. He's going to say, hey, we got to play better than that. Sure, we won this game and we made a play at the end and we scored seven points, but we can't be better than that. And we'll have to be better than that if we want to win a championship. And, and at this point, the all the way the offense is rolling. You got to believe that anything's possible with Cal Shanahan. I said it before, I'll say it again. With Cal Shanahan at the helm, anything is possible. He should be at the front runner of coach it for coach of the year, but there's a lot of guys who should be front runner for coach of the year and a lot of teams dealing with a lot of injuries. The the LA Chargers, Jacksonville Jaguars got a case obviously. New England Patriots and Vrabel, the Chicago Bears and Ben Johnson both first year coaches taking their teams to the playoffs for the first time in a long time. So yeah, I you know it. I'm sure the faithful believe one thing and believe it with all the conviction in the world and you're justified but for some reason I think they, I don't think they're going to give it to Kyle because they never give it to Kyle even when in 19 when we weren't supposed to be as good as we were. You go from a four win team to a one seed and and they didn't give him coach of the year then. So I don't see it happening now. But a really great game for Brad purdy. Like I said, 25, 34, 295, five touchdowns in the one interception. He was only sacked once in the game. He was moving pretty well. This is about as good as I've seen him look all season long. He was confident. He moved well in the pocket. Christian McCaffrey went over a thousand yards rushing for the season. 21 of 117, 21 for 117 in this game and two catches for 29. I mean six catches for 29 yards and two touchdowns in this game. Again, he's doing what he does. He's about 151 yards away from having 151 receiving yards away from having a thousand yards rushing and a thousand yards receiving. He'd be the first person to do it twice in his career, which is incredible. Ready or not is on sale now for the holidays, a breakout hit with over 13 million global players. With Ready or Not is the tactical first person shooter where you take command of the SWAT team and feel the weight of the badge. I reunited with the Legion of Boom for real SWAT training.

Another really solid game for Juwan Jennings. Five receptions, 71 yards in the TD. Important third down catches, huge third down catches throughout this game. I loved when he scored and he said, you know, he looked like he was going to give it to the fan and it was obviously a Colts fan and he snatched it back. I love embracing the villain role. Like, hey, guys are going to be, he's going to be the antagonist. He's going to be the guy that it gets things riled up, gets things going, it gets the juices going and you get your team going. Do your thing, Juwan. Do your thing. I'm not mad at that. He, he did a great job. The defense, like I said, two sacks, the fumble, the sack. Force fumble from Alfred Collins. The force fumble by Jair Brown on, on the kickoff. The special teams, that's been another great story outside of Eddie Panero, Eddie Dinero, whatever you want to call him. Oh, speaking of that, the 64 yarder, I, I, you talk about putting everything into it. He put his whole leg into it and literally hit the crossbar. Like, if, if it was 63 yards, I think it's good. But 64. It has 64, but we know he could potentially get 63. But I. What a season for Eddie Panero and what a pickup for him and what a weapon he's been this season. I don't think he's getting enough credit going out with an injury, coming back, executing down the stretch, executing. I mean, that was the first miss of the season for him. And of course, 64 yarder, I'm, I'm. I applaud him for trying. I applaud him for, for taking an attempt. This was a great game. This was a great game. Offensively, special teams continues to do their part. They. Defensively, they. There were some good things. The, the rush defense against Jonathan Taylor was fantastic. He had 16 carries, only 46 yards. You could see there was a concerted effort there to make those stops. But everything's right in front of the San Francisco 49ers. Everything's in their control. They have a game next week against the Chicago Bears, and if they can win that one, then it all comes down to the Seattle Seahawks in Levi's Stadium. Like I said at the beginning of the season before all this happened, it's going to be between. It's going to come down to The San Francisco 49ers and the Seattle Seahawks. Last game of the season for the division and they're going to be tied. I tell you what I need. Pull that clip. So I think it's between the Seattle Seahawks and the San Francisco 49ers. That's cool. I feel cool. I feel cool calling that one. But you got to get past Chicago Bears, a really good team, well coached team. Caleb Williams seems to be getting more and more confidence, having a great season. Their defense is very formidable. Lot of talent, a lot of guys in the secondary. Noan Wright came out of nowhere leading the league and, and forced, forced turnovers. They got Jaylen Johnson back there. They got guys that can play. So it's going to be. It's not just going to be an easy game by any stretch of the imagination. I think that's going to be a dog fight, but I think Kyle Shanahan is prepared for it. This offense, Brock Purdy, hopefully George Kittle, he was banged up a little bit at the end of this game, but hopefully he's able to heal up this week. Jake Ton just, though. Jake Ton just. I wish they would have. I wish they would have challenged that play because it looked like Jake Ton just let his feet die, got him in bounds, caught the ball and it may have hit the ground, but he controlled it. I think they might have given that to him if they would have challenged that. But he made another awesome catch later on in the game. Similar on the sideline, but I think if the moment, if his number's called, he's prepared for the moment and that will be outstanding. The Seahawks have the Carolina Panthers and obviously The San Francisco 49ers at the end of the season at Carolina Panthers game. I mean, I don't really know who they are because if they play like they did against the Saints, it should be an easy game for the Seattle Seahawks. If they play like they, if the Panthers play like they did against the Bucks, the Seattle Seahawks should win. But if they play like they did against the Rams when they were at home and they beat the Rams, then this could be a dog fight. So I wouldn't expect the Seattle Seahawks to sleep on this team. This team is capable and they're inconsistent is all. Get out from the quarterback to the defense to, to everybody. But when they're rolling, they're rolling. I think the Rams have two winnable games against the Falcons and the Cardinals, who, who have tried to compete, but looks like they're going to be drafting very high in the draft this year, figuring out what they're going to have to do with Kyler Murray. But barring something insane, the 1 seed should come down to the San Francisco 49ers or in the Seattle Seahawks, one of these teams will have it. And that is remarkable with everything that's going on this season, with everything that's gone going on with some of these contracts. I mean, you look on the IR and, and, and there's probably close to a hundred million dollars on the IR if I'm, if I'm not mistaken. I mean, just between three guys, if you put Brandon Iuk for 30 million, you put, put Fred for 20 and some change you put. Brock was on there for a little while, but who else? Nicholas John Bosa for 33. That's 80 something. And, and, and there's, there's, there's other guys who are banged up and injured and, and not able to play for the San Francisco 49ers team. And, and still they still have a chance at the number one seed. Faithful as fans, you gotta appreciate this kind of effort from, from everybody in the building. You could easily in this situation give up, kind of say, oh man, it's just one of those years. And that's what seemed like, seemed to be the narrative coming into this season. Hey, it's just going to be one of those down years, you know. San Francisco, they struggled last year, they got all this dead money. They got these guys banged up, easy schedule, but, but losing a lot of talent offensively, really young defensively, but it didn't happen. And again, that's a testament to Robert Salah, Kyle Shanahan, John lynch, everybody involved with this team and keeping them on track, the training staff, the, the equipment staff, the Jaybird, those guys, everybody that has their hand in it to, to make these guys, to make this run as efficiently and as good as it has, should be applauded because I don't think there's any coach in any organization that sustains this kind of, these kind of losses and this kind of turmoil with, with Brandon Iuk and your number one receiver just deciding he does not for your organization anymore, even though he's getting paid his money. And you lose your, your. Your best player on defense, both of your best players on defense, two of the best players in the National Football League for the season. And you don't flinch, you don't blink and you, you, you lead your team to an 11 and 4 record with two games to play. That's admirable stuff. And, and I respect that. Getting into these playoffs, I mean, it's anybody's game. This is a, this is as wide open of a season as there's been in recent memory. I think I feel good if, if The San Francisco 49ers, if the playoffs started and they were the fifth seed and they had to go to Carolina to play, I feel pretty good. If they had to go to Tampa Bay to play, I'd feel pretty good. If they were somehow the six seed and they had to go to Philadelphia, I would feel good. If they were the one seed and they had to buy, I'd feel really good. So they're in a great spot and I think you, you gotta, you gotta plot them and appreciate this moment. It's wide open. If they somehow end up in the dance, San Francisco 49ers fans get ready to build a statue of Kyle Shanahan. And I know you're like, but what about the Super Bowl? What we gotta win one. Outside of, of. Of the great, the late, great Bill Walsh, there ain't many taking their teams to, to Super Bowls in the way and NFC championships and having a success regardless of circumstance and the way Kyle Shanahan is doing it right now and you know, we're A long way away from that. A lot of things got to happen, but I. He's done it before, he can do it again. And if he does it this year, regardless of the outcome and if they somehow win it. Oh, my God. If they somehow win it. The first off, there'll be questions about all the other times, but let's not get ahead of ourselves. It's going to be a fun playoffs. Can the Seattle Seahawks get the number one seed? They're in control of their own destiny right now. They look really good. They look fantastic against the Rams the other night, especially down the stretch in overtime. Offensively, and they look good defensively. I thought they had a couple turnovers and they got called back. But moving on because this, this is wide open. The AFC is wide open. The one seeds wide open on both sides. I think this is going to be a fun playoff run because you never know what's going to happen. But what I really don't understand is what DK Metcalf was doing. And neither did the NFL because they suspended him for two games because of that fan reaction. And somebody asks, do. Do the fans have too much power or, or is this, you know, the players need to. To. To just control their tempo? Yes. It's that the fans can. Sure. Should the fans, you know, be. Be better about what they say and all that? Sure. You know, don't get belligerent, don't get ignorant, don't. But they do that, you know that that happens. And they're not going to get kicked out most times, you know, unless they do something and they throw something or hit you. Sticks and stones may broke, break my bones, but words, etc. Etc. You can't do it. You can't do it. You can't go into the stands and put your hands on a fan regardless of what they say. Because if that's the case, every away stadium is going to feel like they can get to you. If they say that, they're going to talk about your mom, they're going to talk about your family, they're going to. Whatever it takes. They just want to see their team win. And as a, as a player, you, you, you kind of understand that and you use your, your play on the field to frustrate them. That's what I would love. I love doing that. I love Talk all the crap you want. Because when I go get that pick, I'm coming back. And when I go in this game, I'm coming back. And I'm telling you to go home, beat the traffic. I'm going to frustrate you. I'm coming here to ruin your day. You can't give him that kind of power, dk. And that's, that's the, the sad part about this. They said he lost, you know, between these two, two game checks, he's going to lose over $500,000 with the voids of his guarantees going forward. Which means the, the Pittsburgh Steelers can cut him at any time and not, not incur the, the, the guaranteed money. I'm sure there's some dead money and all that in this contract that'll, that'll, you know, that'll help him stay protected, but just unnecessary, you know, it's unnecessary. Especially in a game your team ends up winning. It'd be different in a little more understandable if this was. At the end of the game, you're super frustrated. You know, you played your butt off and it came down to it and you're super emotional. But this is the middle of the game. You can't have it, you guys, you just can't. And it's unfortunate because, you know, he, they, this team has been on a roll and they're rolling into the playoffs in a good spot and they, they happen to win this game. And, and, and you know, this is, there's negativity associated with it. So, you know, I just hope he can be better in the future. Obviously he'll learn from this two game suspension and we'll see how the rest pans out and what his team does in his absence. He's the number one receiver on that team, the highest paid receiver in on that football team. So it's going to be a tremendous loss for the Pittsburgh Steelers. But will Aaron Rodgers and the boys overcome it? We shall see. As always, I appreciate you joining us. You could be anywhere in the world, but you're here with us and I surely do appreciate it.
