Sherm is hurt - that’s clear to see.
If the niners sign Earl, it’ll be quite comical. Probably make for a great movie years down the road. However, 2 breaks in the same leg at 30....
Also, remember how he broke his leg again. It was a simple play. It wasn’t like he got crushed or anything. It just literally gave in.
Regardless of what happens. I will always love both players. They helped establish Seattle as a power house in the nfl and some intermediate hurt feelings won’t ruin what they’ll represent for us for decades
Uh...I think you are reading something into his comments there.
I'm sure he isn't happy with the way he left Seattle, but I don't think that comment had anything to do with that.
I think it had more to do with the 49ers starting 8 different players at safety this year thanks to an unprecedented injury streak. He was also asked specifically about Earl and he answered the question.
...and this must be a sign of the coming Apocalypse. I just defended Richard Sherman. What has the world come to?
I was just generally speaking. I didn't read the comments or watch any videos. I don't know if it's bad luck for the niners this year but the injury bug seems surreal. Maybe look into some better strength and conditioning coaches instead of players
That question was asked in the last press conference with Shanahan and Lynch. Shanahan effectively said it two years in a row now so they can't just assume its bad luck. They have to do something.
This year was ludicrous though.
They played the last game of the year staring their 5th string RB (Jeff Wilson - McKinnon, Breida, Mostert all hurt, Morris benched...and Wilson got hurt in the 1st quarter), their 3rd string QB (Mullens - tho admittedly he outplayed Beathard), their 4th and 5th WRs (Bourne and Taylor - Garcon, Goodwin, and Pettis all hurt) and don't get me started on the DBs. (Ward, Witherspoon, Colbert, Tartt,)
Its just crazy. They didn't have much depth to begin with and were counting on some younger guys to come through (and some did...Brieda before injury, Kittle in a big way, Pettis was coming around late). It was just a train wreck of injuries all year.
