The temple of boom. At first I took that lightly as fandom gone wild No longer. Richard Sherman is so good that other teams don't even throw at him. He complains about the lack of action but should take it as a show of respect that half the field is out of bounds. These guys are beyond shutdown. You just do not go deep against the Seahawks. I cannot speak with authority but I think this is the best defensive secondary in league history. If you are a fan at all, or even if you just watch the Super Bowl, enjoy watching them. In any walk of life it is a pleasure watching the best of the best.

Look past the wild hair and the outrageous comments. There is a very serious guy in there. You have to pass the admissions exam to even qualify for Stanford sports. And he brings that intelligence onto the field.

NFL DBs are among the fastest people on the planet. They can run the length of a football field at about a meter a second. Wide receivers are sometimes about as fast. It gets a little Darwinian. The Patriots don't have an offense that is very good at going deep anyway so Brady will be dumping it short.
