All summer long we heard this BS about Sherman playing one side while Peterson follows the number one receiver. Peterson started this public discussion in a contract negotiating ploy. Everyone bought into the meme. The talking heads and bloggers could not let it go. Every message board you read repeated the same mantra. It is gospel, yet it isn't true.
Take a look at this:

Where notable CBs have lined up
Snap counts, 2014 season
....................................................Left.............Right
Joe Haden, CLE ........................108 ..............86
Patrick Peterson, ARI ................177 ..............10
Darrelle Revis, NE......................129...............49
Richard Sherman, SEA..............198................ 3
Aqib Talib, DEN..........................198................ 0
There are those that back up what they say, on the playing field, and those that don't.
