He lit up his Twitter feed tonight in defense of Sherman. It's kind of hard to track because he's having a conversation with two Sherman-haters saying he's got nothing on Revis. The "bad guys" are https://twitter.com/JVIBOTTOMLINE and especially https://twitter.com/IamlronMan
Some of the gems from Prisco:
Pete Prisco @PriscoCBS
You can have Revis right now or @RSherman_25 who you taking? I'll take Sherman.
Pete Prisco @PriscoCBS
@IamlronMan @jvibottomline @rsherman_25 He was in 2012 (Saying he was as good as Revis was the prior year.)
Pete Prisco @PriscoCBS
@willbrinson @rsherman_25 Richard started it, I just chimed in with accurate assessment that people didn't like (Saying Sherman was as good as Revis is what people didn't like.)
Pete Prisco @PriscoCBS
@willbrinson @rsherman_25 Richard plays corner the way I like: In your face.
Pete Prisco @PriscoCBS
Deion to Champ to Revis to Sherman? (Talking about best corners ever being handed off each generation.)
Pete Prisco @PriscoCBS
@Wiz4life1 He was pretty damn good last year too guys (Referring to Sherman's half-year as a rookie last year.)
Pete Prisco @PriscoCBS
For those not paying attention, Sherman played a high level in 2011 as well
Pete Prisco @PriscoCBS
@John_Venerable Nope. But has the ability to be just as good (@John_Venerable said Patrick Peterson > Richard Sherman, no doubt a douche just looking at the Pro Bowl nomination.)
Pete Prisco @PriscoCBS
@iamlost79 I am not saying he's there yet, just talking abut the baton being passed. (About his best CB of the generation baton being passed from Revis to Sherman.)
Pete Prisco @PriscoCBS
@drewsexton23 Because Pro Bowl doesn't matter. All-Pro does. He was All-Pro
Pete Prisco @PriscoCBS
@gully11 @mmehtanydn @rsherman_25 @revis24 Well, yes he is. And he's healthy (@gully11 said Sherman's not even close to Revis.)
Pete Prisco @PriscoCBS
That's the other thing. People in the East don't see Sherman. If he played for the Jets, people would be going nuts (Even pointing out the east coast bias; nice.)
Pete Prisco @PriscoCBS
@gully11 @mmehtanydn @rsherman_25 Here's one. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=295NI0kV5b0 (Rofl, @gully11 said Revis never got burned by anyone, so Pete links him this video of Revis giving up a TD and losing a step on the receiver.)
Pete Prisco @PriscoCBS
@gully11 @mmehtanydn @rsherman_25 Ted Ginn running by him? http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9dRz9WCgXRU (Another example of Revis getting burned; ignorant fans of Revis think he's perfect and never allows anything, Pete's proving otherwise to idiots using the few examples of Sherman giving up something to claim he's nothing compared to Revis.)
Love him or hate him, that's some mad love for Sherman right there. He spent an HOUR on Twitter promoting and defending Richard Sherman. Stuff like this is why I follow him. He says some stupid stuff sometimes, certainly, but he also seems to know what he's talking about in plenty of cases. I'll be curious to see how some of the die-hard Prisco-haters respond to this.
