Lets see, a contented Richard Sherman or one with a chip on his shoulder? Richard Sherman with a chip on his shoulder for sure, but, what if that "chip" is directed at the coaching staff and/or front office?
Sherm has been given more leeway by our F/O than he would have been given by just about any other team. But, when he directed his vocal out bursts at the coaching staff the team asked him to dial it back a bit, slow his roll so to speak, keep his criticism "in house". I didn't believe the reports that Sherm was so angry that he has demanded to be traded. Now I am not so sure. I mean, should a team even want to keep a player who is not happy??
I don't want Richard to play for anyone else, heck, I AGREE with his assessment of Darrell Bevell. I am disgusted that Pete can't seem to realize that Bevell is and has been a CANCER on this team since he showed up from Minnesota. Our offense was productive in spite of Bevell certainly not because of his idiotic play calling.
That fact that Pete would rather allow his "love" of Bevell to ruin the chemistry of the team than make a change at OC.
I hope cooler heads prevail, but I have been nervous about Pete not seeming to learn from the mistake he has made by hanging on to Bevell.
