The Richard Sherman Podcast - Week in Review: 49ers Make a Statement, Vikings Earn Respect & Chargers in Crisis

October 17, 2026 · 1 hr 6 min

Richard Sherman and Mitchell Eisenstein revisit the biggest NFL debates of the week, starting with the Sherman Bowl—how the 49ers outlasted the Seahawks, why Mike Evans changes San Francisco’s offense, and whether Seattle fans should be concerned. Plus, Richard gives the undefeated Vikings their respect and explains what makes Brian Flores’ defense so difficult to solve.

They also break down Jacksonville’s wild win over Philadelphia, debate Jalen Hurts and the Eagles’ playoff outlook, and preview Cowboys-Packers and Commanders-49ers. Then it’s the latest power rankings, mounting concerns around Justin Herbert and the Chargers, and why Josh Allen’s running ability makes Buffalo so dangerous.

An audio-only collection of the week’s best conversations from The Richard Sherman Podcast, recorded earlier this week.
