Joe remembers. Sherman claimed, \u201c<a href=\"https:\/\/www.joebucsfan.com\/2025\/11\/i-know-some-things\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener nofollow\">I know some things.<\/a>\u201d What exactly did he know?<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: left;\">It\u2019s time for a new season and Sherman feels great about Tampa Bay\u2019s chances. On his podcast, Sherman picked the Bucs to win the NFC South and noted the Bucs are the only team capable of running away with the division, though he doesn\u2019t think that will happen.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: left;\">Sherman sees the all the elements for a dynamic Bucs offense in place, but it\u2019s on the defense side where he thinks the strength of the team will lie.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: left;\">Sherman loved the Bucs\u2019 draft and believes that simply from impressive highlight clips this summer, Rueben Bain answered any questions about his short arms and his ability to be a force.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: left;\">Interestingly, Sherman didn\u2019t reference the Bucs feeling the loss of his friend Jamel Dean, but he did note that the play of Zyon McCollum and Jacob Parrish and how they \u201cstand up\u201d at cornerback will be critical.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: left;\">Sherman talked about the complexities and intricacies of the Todd Bowles defense and how it can be challenging for corners. He didn\u2019t seem overly impressed: \u201c[Bowles] does a great job confusing offenses but sometimes it can feel a bit unsound,\u201d Sherman said.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Richard Sherman Picks Bucs To Win NFC South September 7th, 2026 Richard Sherman weighs in.
