'Uninterested In Playing Football' - Richard Sherman Unleashed Hell On George Pickens For Being A No-Show And Basically Quitting On The Cowboys

Let's hit the tape to see why Richard Sherman is so pissed: 

Shocked. No one could ever see this coming from George Pickens. Look, I'm not going to sit here and throw some holier than thou shit, because it's George Pickens. We all should know this is going to happen a few times a year. The guy will look like an elite receiver in the NFL and then do exactly this. The only shocking thing is he didn't throw in some sort of fight or personal foul like we're all used to seeing. 

I also think we need more announcers/analysts whatever the hell you want to call the 14 guys on the studio show who aren't afraid to talk like this. Too often guys don't want to piss people off and kinda pussyfoot around the whole topics. Sherman at least says what's on his mind, whether you like him or not, and that's something we need more of in TV. Speak like a normal person since we all watched the game. We all saw exactly what happened. 

At least Pickens is distraught about it

I do think Trey Wingo of all people summed it up perfectly

Pickens has been good this year. No one will argue against that. But this is the moment he had to show up and do something. Dude just gave up on numerous routes. We all saw the game right? If DJ Reed was on anyone you probably were getting a catch or defensive interference, all you had to do was try. 

Sherman hitting him with the half-ass made me laugh. There's something about claiming a person is half-assing something that's a perfect line. We need to use that more. I'll say the only shocking part here is Pickens not firing back on Sherman. Fully expected to see them lining up across from each other at 3am running routes.
