    Are the Legion of Boom overrated

    They only beat one top 10 the offense the Saints, twice, and twice in the rain. The Saint are also very anemic offensively on the road.

    Houston was #6 overall when I last checked so their you go. The Chiefs was #1 overall when they were 9-0 before the Broncos took their man hood away.

    No.

    But they have been missing one of their best players this year in CB Brandon Browner.

    Hahaha.

    No, they are not overrated.

    Sherman is the best Cornerback in the league and Earl Thomas is playing like a top 3 Free Safety in the league.

    Chancellor is no slouch at Strong Safety and their back-up Cornerback for the other side of the field is not bad.

    The Legion of Boom is undoubtedly the best defensive back corps in the NFL.

    FYI, I want the Broncos to win this game and I have a bet on them. I want Champ Bailey and Wes Welker to get their rings.

    Kam Chancellor and Earl Thomas are the best pair of safeties in the league right now and top 3 in the last ten years.

    Fukk Sherman he only good because of the two safeties.

    Earl Thomas is probably the best defensive player in the league.

    yep.... earl thomas is the best safety in the game

    Many people don't realize how important an elite safety is in making an above average corner seem elite. I'm not saying the person doesn't understand it in theory, but they really don't grasp the impact it has in real time. They just sorta overlook it.

    there is not one deion sanders type cover corner in the NFL currently

    QB's never throw Sherman's way, regardless if Earl is helping him over the top or not - they don't throw his way because he is blanketing the WR and has shown the ability to pick off most of what is thrown his way...only Everson Walls and Ed Reed, 2 first ballot hall of famers, had more interceptions than Richard Sherman in their first 3 yrs in the league

    Find a better angle, the front 7 have a bigger impact on a DB's reputation than safeties do

    is that all you got? it clearly is since you resorted to analyzing my profile

    who said he was Deion Sanders?

    Is it in insult to be compared to the greatest of all time? nope

    Kid a defensive backfield makes a front 7 not the other way around. Coverage is everything in the game now. This ain't 1982. Quarterbaciks who are hurried throw the ball to the hot dog guy.

    you couldnt be more wrong, ask richard sherman who he credits most for the success of the seattle secondary

    and just so you know, it doesn't make you sound wise to preface a post with the word kid, just old

    Of course Sherman credits his teammates, that what a good teammate does. The guy went to Stanford. You think he's gonna come out and say "I'm the best corner in the game! That's what happens when you throw to a sorry receiver like Crabtree. LOB!" Hell No he's not going to say that

    Can work both ways...Giants won 2 SuperBowls because of their front 4. Jets have had top rated Ds, even when the only way they could generate any pressure on the qb was by blitzing.

    Also, sherman gave credit to the dline after he calmed down.

    Overrated? Nope. Nobody has said they're the best secondary of all time... In the past decade? Probably. Earl Thomas is the best defensive player in the nfl right now. He's everywhere on the field, on every play he makes a difference. If you try to argue that, you're an idiot. 29 and 31 are the best safety combo in the nfl. Fact. I can't wait to watch Kam destroy little Welker... I'm sure he's already talking to Vernon Davis about that. Welker already chokes when it counts... How's he gonna catch the ball when the game is on the line and he's worried about 31 smacking him into last year? Sherman is the best corner in the nfl right now. Fact. Love or hate the guy, QBs don't throw at him, and he is still statistically #1 in INTs, pass break ups, and QBR while targeting him. Thurmond, Maxwell, and Lane would all be starters on maaaaany teams, and they're the back ups. Enough ranting, I'm drunk as hell and need to go to bed. Take it for what it's worth, I'm born and raised in Seattle, season ticket holder, and a total homer. GO HAWKS!

    The biggest factor in this game is Seattles offense vs Denver's D. Seattle WILL get 2+ TOs on some short fields. Will Denver's injured D hold up?

    Just so you know. I missed the N. It was supposed to be Kind.
