Good morning, 12s.
Here's a look at what's "out there" for today - Tuesday, Nov. 3 - about your Seattle Seahawks:
Richard Sherman is PFF's Top-Graded Corner
Football analytics website ProFootballFocus.com grades Seahawks cornerback Richard Sherman as the NFL's top cornerback in Week 8 for his play against star wide receiver Dez Bryant and the Dallas Cowboys.
Sherman shadowed Bryant for most of Sunday afternoon's 13-12 Seattle victory, recording four passes defensed on balls intended for Bryant and tackling the Dallas wideout for a three yard loss on one of his two receptions. Bryant's other catch went for 15 yards.
Here's what PFF had to say about Sherman's play:
As Sam Monson detailed on Monday, Sherman hadn't played like his usual self entering Week 8, allowing 66.7 percent of balls thrown his way to be caught, and surrendering 15.4 yards per reception. He also had no interceptions and just two passes defensed.
On Sunday, however, Sherman was tasked with covering Dez Bryant. He locked down the freshly-returned Cowboys' WR, earning the top grade of any cornerback this week.
In the contest, Cowboys QB Matt Cassel threw into Sherman's coverage five times, completing one pass for 15 yards. The Seahawks' CB broke up the other four.
This is about as lockdown as it gets for Sherman, who showed a glimpse of the corner we've come to expect from the past few seasons.
