LeGarrette Blount thinks Aqib Talib is the best cornerback in the NFL, and he’s not afraid to say it. However, there’s one particularly outspoken D-back who would disagree.
Blount, who played with Talib in both Tampa Bay and New England, sent a tweet Tuesday night congratulating his former teammate on his massive new deal with the Denver Broncos.

That tweet sparked a firestorm of online debate, with Blount being bombarded with — and responding to — arguments that Richard Sherman, not Talib, is the best corner in the NFL. Eventually, Sherman himself joined the fray, leading to the following back-and-forth.

Ouch. Can’t really argue with that last one.
