Sherman’s tip has come to be known as the Immaculate Deflection, but his postgame comments on the Fox telecast are what many people remember. “I’m the best corner in the game,” Sherman screamed. “When you try me with a sorry receiver like Crabtree, that’s the result you’re going to get. Don’t you ever talk about me.”
When Fox reporter Erin Andrews asked him whom he was talking about, he replied, “Crabtree. Don’t you open your mouth about the best or I’ll shut it for you real quick. L.O.B. [Legion of Boom].”
Sherman’s ire at Crabtree dates back to words they exchanged at Arizona Cardinals receiver Larry Fitzgerald‘s charity softball game, which both men attended before the 2013 season.
“It’s much more than I don’t like the dude,” Sherman said on Wednesday’s show, according to USA Today. “You know what I’m saying? And I think he’s sorry. So it’s really what it comes down to. It’s just about him. It’s just about Crabtree.”
