The Richard Sherman Podcast

NFL free agency is wild! Richard Sherman breaks down Mike Evans leaving the Tampa Bay Buccaneers to join the San Francisco 49ers and what it means for Purdy and Shanahan. He discusses why Evans is a game-changer for the Niners, then covers the Seattle Seahawks’ offseason moves—losing Kenneth Walker III to the Kansas City Chiefs and Coby Bryant to the Chicago Bears, keeping Josh Jobe, and how Zach Charbonnet steps up. Plus, the NFC West is getting more competitive as the Los Angeles Rams sign an historic extension for Trent McDuffie and bringing in Jaylen Watson. Around the league, he talks about Maxx Crosby being traded to the Baltimore Ravens, the Las Vegas Raiders' reboot, and the drama with the Miami Dolphins moving on from Tua Tagovailoa.

Two of the best defensive players of their era, Richard Sherman and T.J. Ward, finally go head-to-head on one of the biggest questions in NFL history: Who had the best defense—the 2013 Seattle Seahawks’ Legion of Boom or the 2015 Denver Broncos’ No Fly Zone? Sherm and T.J. break it all down, position by position. From Seattle’s legendary secondary with Earl Thomas and Kam Chancellor to Denver’s stacked D led by Von Miller and DeMarcus Ware, they cover turnovers, sacks, offensive support, and who really had the tougher path to the Super Bowl.

It gets real as both All-Pros passionately defend their squads. Sherman argues the Legion of Boom took over the league with insane takeaways and football IQ, while Ward makes the case for the No Fly Zone’s relentless pass rush and lock-down coverage. They even dig into that unforgettable Super Bowl vs. Peyton Manning and how their defenses matched up against elite QBs like Drew Brees and Cam Newton.

Plus, are the Chiefs quietly setting up a mini rebuild with those extra picks and new cap space? Sherman discusses Trey Hendrickson hitting free agency, which contenders like the San Francisco 49ers, Seattle Seahawks, Philadelphia Eagles, or Green Bay Packers might pursue him, and how a bidding war could price out some teams. And Rich talks about former Arizona Cardinals QB Kyler Murray’s market—now that he’s hitting free agency, do the Jets make the most sense, or could we even see him return to baseball?

This episode of The Richard Sherman Podcast dives headfirst into one of the biggest defensive arguments of the modern NFL era: the 2013 Seattle Seahawks’ Legion of Boom vs. the 2015 Denver Broncos’ No Fly Zone. Sherm gives respect to Von Miller, Aqib Talib, Chris Harris Jr., DeMarcus Ware, and the dominant Broncos Super Bowl defense — but then breaks down, stat by stat and tape by tape, why he believes Seattle’s defense wasn’t just better… it wasn’t even close. From interceptions and passing yards allowed to playoff performances and Super Bowl opponents, Sherman explains how the Seahawks shut down one of the greatest offenses in NFL history and why turnovers, intelligence, and scheme made the Legion of Boom historic. He also clears up the man-coverage vs. zone-coverage myth and explains how Seattle’s communication, football IQ, and depth separated them from every defense of the era.
Plus, Sherman discusses:
- Why turnovers matter more than style points
- Peyton Manning’s historic 2013 offense versus Cam Newton’s MVP season
- How Seattle’s scheme influenced Denver’s roster build
- Why modern NFL defenses rarely stick to heavy man coverage
- The philosophy behind the Legion of Boom’s four-season dominance
