It's a legitimate discussion, even if the OP is obviously trolling.
Sherman didn't just get juked on that play. I watched him closely and there were many times Rivers went to someone else, but Allen was open, having juked Sherman exactly the same way on exactly the same move. I got to wondering why was Sherman doing that? Was he covering for something else? Giving up that slant to prevent getting burnt deep? Why not just jam him at the line of scrimmage like they used to do?
And yeah, Sherman "just" gave up three receptions. They went for 25 yards, meaning 8.33 ypc. Anyone care to know what Rivers passer rating was against Sherman? Pretty damned good.
EDIT: Per PFF, Sherman was targeted 6 times for 54 yards. That's 9.0 YPAA. And if he only gave up three receptions on those 6 targets, that would be 18 ypc.
Is that a knock on Sherman? No. But he wasn't his normal self either. One has to take into account there are special circumstances here. It's the first time he'd been targeted since the new LOB rule came into affect.
It would have been comforting to know that the LOB rule didn't have any impact on Shermans game, expecially after that huge payday we just gave him. But yesterdays game left that door open. Now we'll have to wait to see how he plays from here on out to get an idea of how much of his game, if any, he's lost due to it.
Personally, I think it was a gameplan he was playing to that backfired, plus the heat, plus Sherman has had trouble with certain types of receivers in the past, like Hilton, and that could have played into it. But no matter what the reason, he didn't look good out there yesterday.
