Twitter is roasting Richard Sherman for getting burned by Sammy Watkins

Richard Sherman is one of the biggest trash talkers the NFL has ever seen. He’s not shy about letting you know how good he is.

And who can blame him? He’s a Hall of Fame cornerback at the end of the day. Anyone that good would be a great trash talker.

But, of course, there are rules that come with trash talk, fam. If you dish it out, you KNOW it’s going to come back hard when you have a misstep. And you’ve got to be able to take it.

Y’all know the rule. “If thou speaketh garbage upon a man, thou shall get garbage in return.” It’s in the book. Page 73, section 113. Check it out.

Sherman knows that. And that’s where he’s at right now. After winning the NFC Championship he promptly engaged in a back and forth with Darrelle Revis on Twitter that basically ended with him telling him to watch the Super Bowl from the couch.

In the moment? Man that trash talk looks great. But tonight? Uhhh, not looking so good.

Sherman got absolutely ROASTED by Sammy Watkins on a big play that put the Chiefs in scoring position.

Whew boy. What a move. What a route. What a catch. Great stuff by Watkins.

But y’all know Twitter. They were absolutely NOT going to let Sherman live that one down. A whole lot of “Darrelle Revis was right” going around right now.

Whew boy. That’s not fun. It’s not fair, honestly — Watkins made an AMAZING play that got him wide open.

But it doesn’t matter. If you talk trash, you get it back. Thems the rules.
