APThe 49ers may or may not be interested in acquiring Jets cornerback Darrelle Revis.
We know this much: Richard Sherman isn’t concerned either way.
The Seahawks’ cornerback, who had a memorable written and verbal dispute with Revis last week, told 710 AM in Seattle on Wednesday that he’s indifferent to whether Revis lands with Seattle’s primary NFC West rival.
“It’d be fun either way,” Sherman said, according to Sports Radio Interviews. “There’s always a rivalry there. I still wouldn’t get to play against him directly, so it really wouldn’t matter to me. I’m sure our receivers would have a little fun with him. I don’t mind either way. He’s really irrelevant in my mind.”
You may recall Sherman also taking to Twitter last week to refer to Revis as “irrelevant.”
Think there will be a lot of focus on which cornerback has the better season in 2013?

“irrelevant in my mind”
Sherman, your mind is irrelevant.
I’m starting to like Sherman more and more every day. If Revis thinks he is the best defensive player, or best corner, why has he never won the defensive player of the year award?
Coming off the Revis ACL my guess is Sherman will have the better season between the two next season. Both will be good. Both will talk trash.
I REALLY hope Revis is traded to Seattle! That would be so fun to watch this site explode on a daily basis.
Last time I checked the one who started taking jabs at Revis out of nowhere, so I’d say Darrelle is pretty relevant to you, Mr Adderall.
Know what’s irrelevant in everyone’s minds? This fued.
then why do you keep saying his name? Or walking around Bourbon Street asking who is better?….please stay out of the media you are more annoying than the entire Ryan family.
Hey Rich .. Your good enough to make a name for yourself on the field rather then calling out the Big guy in the Prison yard
I am personnel looking forward to next year I think this young man will excel
I bet Revis’s contract isn’t irrelevant! He sets the bar for the rest of you youngins! But Sherman’s from Compton! Je still got that Hood mentality! LOL WestWest y’all!
For a guy talking so much about Revis, it’s hard to believe that “He’s really irrelevant in my mind”.
Then why talk about him that much?
I guess in the same way that four of Sherman’s six picks this year were irrelevant since they came against the Cardinals and Rams. Hey Sherm, how about you go back to work on how you’re going to Braun your way out of your next PED test failure. Go away.
I also recall Sherman getting away with doping on a technicality. I do not remember Revis ever getting caught doping. That is the difference between these players in my opinion.
I think in trying to put his name out there Sherman is going to make everyone sick of hearing it in record time.
I know one thing, I’d hate to be a receiver next year with one of these 2 lined up across from me, they’ll each want to prove whose better so they’d both definitely be motivated.
Can’t stand annoying people like Sherman.
I don’t undestand this guy. If Revis was irrelevant he wouldn’t have talked about him in the first place. Plus I don’t remember Revis getting suspended for PEDs. (I know he got away with it on a technicality)
Sherman must like to hear himself, must be the only way to make himself feel relevant.
The offseason sucks so bad. Between Sherman, Suggs, Revis and all the other blowhards, its making it unbearable.
So irrelevant that he brought his name out to shine some lights on his own career. This guy can’t keep his mouth shut for 3 days.
This is the telling year, as it is Sherman’s third. A couple weeks ago Sherman asked what has “Revis done?” In Revis’ third season, he was the focal point of a defense on par with Seattle’s defense today. With a dramatically worse quarterback, they went to the AFC championship. We can talk about press coverage, man coverage, matchups and 40 times until we’re blue in the face, but the Seahawks’ success this year will be the inarguable litmus test for Revis and Sherman.
And in case you read any judgment into that either way, there was none. I honestly couldn’t care less about the Revis/Sherman rivalry, just posing a question.
Hey Richard if he’s irrelevant why do you keep talking about him???
Biggest idiots always the loudest.
Sherman > Revis
Revis has been irrelevant for the last two seasons, i forget he play.. plus the ACL tear, he will be overpaid but wont be same.. Niners love to overpay for DB’s see: clemons.
Does anyone else not care at all what Richard Sherman has to say about anything?
There is no rivalry. Twitter smack talk isn’t a rivalry, it’s petty and annoying (when a player on your team is involved, otherwise it’s always pretty funny).
Steve Johnson, who by most likely the Sherman supporters on here is considered a number 2 wr on any other team, had 8 115 TD against him. How is he the best if he can’t even stop a number 2. Revis is the bar for CB’s. Sherman will become irrelevant soon enough.
If he’s so irrelevant to you why do you keep talking about him? Especially when Revis has clearly moved on? Have a need to prove something?
Would be funny if they shipped Matt Flynn to the Jets and the Hawks ended up with Revis………………
what a joke. he’s obviously relevant to you which is why you researched his stats so you can compare yours to what he’s done! revis > sherman. period.
When Sherman was suspended for drug use he appealed it. How come the league didn’t test him right away? How come the league in general doesn’t automatically retest players who appeal failed drug tests?
My point being I think Sherman got away with cheating on a technicality.
When your words betray you…..

___________________________________________________________
check out where he got his degree from and still says he has a hood mentality
BTW-Sherman didn’t bring Revis up, he was responding to a question on a radio talk show……He answered well and wasn’t taking a shot at Revis. This is a press generated off season issue. Nothing more; Nothing less. Time to move on.
I love how richard sherman says something harmless and all the girls get upset and talk about respect and trash talk.
Do you think Revis should be ‘relevant’ in Sherman’s mind, or vice-versa?
They play on the same side of the ball in two different conferences (right now) and will never line up against eachother, why would either of them be ‘relevant’ to eachother?
Browner, Flynn and a pick for Revis. Please Pete get it done, go on Hard Knocks and get your popcorn.

Can’t stand annoying people like Sherman.
======================================
nah…to easy
You can bet your last buck that when Sherman goes out of his way twice to publicly announce that he finds Reevis “irrelevant” that Sherman is sweating him…. bad.
**”" When Sherman was suspended for drug use he appealed it. How come the league didn’t test him right away? How come the league in general doesn’t automatically retest players who appeal failed drug tests?**”"
He got tested right away again, goodness how many idiots do we have on this board?

Just by responding you already justified his statement. All he wants is to get a rise out of PFT commenters and generate hate and resentment for the team he pretends to represent. If we all ignore him, he’ll simply go away.
Sherman is only better than Revis in his mind and maybe on Twitter. Revis is a much better player on the field. As evident in the Sherman vs ATL receivers battle which he lost miserably in the playoffs.
The Shermanator is just a loudmouth.
Gotta love Richard Sherman! Keep an eye out for my boy Chris Harris next season though, he is quietly becoming one of the top CB’s in the league!

Because a radio talk show host asked him a question specifically about Revis. Did you even read the article?

Actually that would be AWESOME! I just don’t see Seattle paying Revis’ salary.

He was tested multiple times afterward, and passed them all.
Which one of Seattle’s crapola receivers is going to have “fun” with Revis? Without Revis, Seattle’s leading receiver had 2 catches against the Jets last season. 2!
Jeremy Kerley led the game in receptions and yards (5 for 57).
A lot of people in here don’t really understand what Sherman means when he says Revis is irrelevant to him. Shermans refers to Revis and himself playing on the same side of the field, and therefor never facing eachother (therefor being irrelevant to him) – “I still wouldn’t get to play against him directly, so it really wouldn’t matter to me”
To the guys with their:”well, if he’s irrelevant, why do you keep talking about him??”, you do sound stupid. Sherman is being asked about Revis in every interview he has, of course he answers the questions about Revis.
Please neither of you two are the best CB in the league, just shut up already!
Dick’s fall from grace is going to be epic.
As Bart Scott says, CAN’T WAIT!
I stopped watching NFL AM when they started using Sherman as a commentator. His segments are beyond annoying. He is self-aggrandizing and impossible to listen to. NFLN is getting as bad as ESPN, just deliberately trying to stir up controversy for ratings sake. It’s like their trying to be First Take: NFLN Edition
The Seahawks are irrelevant. Nice year, more wins than they actually had, probably won’t make the playoffs again any time soon.
Once again to all of you idiots on here calling Sherman out.! Please read!
He never called out Revis. He was simply asked to list his top CB’s and left Revis off that list. Specifically because Revis didn’t play this year and was hurt. SHERMAN wss asked why Revis wasn’t on the list, which he responded saying Revis would HAVE BEEN ON THAT LIST if he had played but he couldn’t rightfully put a player on that list who didn’t do anything this season.
So bc of your blind hatred of Sherman you let the facts skip you! He also said Jennings, browner, cromardie, and hayden were all the top CB’s with him but he could only pick 5! So he’d leave it Revis off the list. Also don’t forget he was a guest on the NFL network not some caller he was sitting their on the show!
By your comments apparently you wanted Peyton to win the MVP the year he didn’t play. We’re we all questioning Peyton when he was hurt? Was he on every list of top active QB’S? Noooooo he had to prove us wrong. But somehow In Shermans case that misses everyone. Lol
Not ever Pt or pass TD wad scored on Sherman he can’t cover everyone on every play. Don’t pick a couple plays A year and then add all success against the Seahawks defense to his resume you sound like an idiot. Anyone whose ever played a team sport knows you can have success by yourself or as a group but your team can give up points and TD’s and yards without you being involved. Yes he’s given up a TD here or there no less than anyone else. And again the facts show that.
Shermans stats from this last year have been overlooked nationally but was why he was an ALL PRO. HE literally just put up one of the best overall statistical years EVER BY A CB!!! EVER!!
Between passes defensed, deflected, Int’s, sacks, fumble recoveries, fumbles forced, tackles for loss, TD’s.. Stop with the numbers don’t mean anything. They dooo my friend! And not all of those stats are bc he was targeted unlike Revis bc that’s simply not true according to the stats!
The whole argument for why Revis doesn’t have good stats compared to Sherman is and was stupid they avg a difference of 4 targets per year!!!! So again why does Shermans stats kill revis’s but somehow not tell the story? Please explain bc they are being targeted the same amount but one doesn’t get the title bc he’s too new and the other has inferiors stats but because he’s well known he has all the credibility.
Just because you didn’t look at the facts or stats to know that doesn’t mean you can spew ignorance!
Also this was an interview they took pieces of to try and fuel the argument and get viewings. No problem with that but stop acting Like Shermans finding media outlets to talk crap bc he’s not. I recall Revis calling Sherman and Sherman throwing daggers while Revis used the equivalent of your ” dumb” card as a comeback.
Revis acted like a little girl and was all up in the media calling out coaches players and his own organization just before this situation, but bc Sherman was one who said something back he’s the jerk get out of here!
Gain some perspective thanks people!

LOL did not read.
@chrismathewssucks: while I agree wholeheartedly with your screen name I must take you to task with your comment that the 9ers always overpay for their corners. Not so. Clements was signed way back in the Nolan/McCloughen era. Those two jokers are long gone and so is Clements. Carry on.
Damn my post was too damn long. Rambled my bad peeps.
Hella long… Seahawks are wack and so is Sherman.. Gets away with holding every damn play.. Check the game film.. Damn smh
Illegal contact all day
Can’t believe people still talk about Sherman and the “PED” Adderall. Talk about Haters.
“randyschwimmer7 “.
Revis won the AFC Defensive Player of the Year in 2009.!!!! Do u know how to google?!!!!

Ya, but that secondary still couldnt stop a TD pass from sidney rice to golden tate
Every person who has opened their mouth only to spew negativity about richard sherman, please stop looking like complete idiots. Look, lim not a seahawks specifically, but I’m also not retarded or totally oblivious to three truth that is, richard sherman is a shut down corner. And he will be better than revis, barring a catastrophic injury
Love when the commentors hate on trash talk by trash talking
This fued exists because of the media… and Revis getting bent out of shape over a funny video. On Sharms behalf, he is obviously just having a good time and miserable people hate to see things like that. Go enjoy your lives and relax a little.
Grew up in Compton, went to STANFORD, 5th round draft choice and now an All PRO. He is making the northwest relevant. Graduating from STANFORD obviously is understood he has a brain and can play the brain games.
Sherman is only better than Revis in his mind and maybe on Twitter. Revis is a much better player on the field. As evident in the Sherman vs ATL receivers battle which he lost miserably in the playoffs.

Doubt you even watched the game. Probably ESPN highlights. Sherman had 3 or 4 passes defensed that game and nothing was completed his way whether it was Jones/White. He got beat on a 50 yard bomb that Chancellor was completely out of position on (same as Bronco’s S versus Flacco) but from the game Sherm was rock solid- trust me. Oh yeah the dudes trying to question the talent Sherman plays..Considering Chad Henne-Cassell Fitzpatrick are far from world beaters when Revis was out there getting 4 picks total.
