Richard Sherman is still Richard Sherman

The Seahawks locked up Richard Sherman on Dez Bryant all game. There was no more sticking to one side of the field and just rolling safety help to the oppositions best receiver. Sherman took Dez, and Earl Thomas played straight up.

Unofficially, Dez Bryant was targeted on 7 passes, but came up with just two receptions for 12 yards. Sherman got his hands on four of those passes, and probably should have intercepted at least two of them. In fact, Bryant was called for pass interference on one play as he attempted to play defense and keep Sherman from making the interception.

Bryant is one of the best receivers in the game, and Sherman dominated the matchup.
