Two familiar NFC West rivals are squaring off in the NFC Championship game when the Seattle Seahawks host the San Francisco 49ers. The Seahawks have a solid defense including arguably the best cornerback in the league. While Richard Sherman led the league with eight interceptions, 49ers wide receiver Michael Crabtree wouldn’t acknowledge that Sherman was the best when asked about it.

Instead he side-stepped the question and didn’t name anyone as the best.

“I don’t know (anything) about the best cornerbacks in the league. I just know teams, you know. We are playing the Seattle Seahawks and hopefully we come out with a win. We are going hard.”

He would acknowledge that the Seahawks have a pretty good defense.

“They move around, they are pretty good, pretty good,” Crabtree said. “They are a good football team. We got some good guys too. So it is going to be a good game.”
