Chad “Ochocinco” Johnson, who hosts the “Nightcap” podcast with NFL Hall of Famer Shannon Sharpe, shared his desire to settle the Asante Samuel vs. Deion Sanders debate. Who comes out on top?
Deion Sanders, Asante Samuel War of Words Continues
Johnson and Sharpe have had their podcast since 2023, which has quickly become one of the top shows in the country.
In the debate on who the best cornerback of all time is, Johnson and Sharpe discussed whether or not it was Sanders or Samuel.
Johnson was an NFL receiver for the Cincinnati Bengals from 2001-10 and then played single seasons for the New England Patriots, Miami Dolphins, and the Montreal Alouettes of the Canadian Football League.
Johnson argued that they should settle the Samuel-Sanders debate by having a “Club Shay Shay DB edition. Good conversation, PowerPoint presentation style, film up there to support each of your opinions and facts that you might have.”
Johnson added that he was “giving you the ultimate content right now, a format that has never been done before.”
Sharpe disagreed with Johnson on every aspect of his suggestions about settling the debate involving the two players and himself.
Sharpe said, “I have, along with Coach Prime, given more attention to Asante Sanders since he has been retired than he has ever gotten.”
Sharpe added he doesn’t “give a damn” what Samuel says about the film.
“After tonight, I am done with this. There is nothing to debate. No one will say he (Samuel) is in the realm of Time (Sanders). He is in the realm of Darrelle Revis. He is in the realm of. Rod Woodson or Charles Woodson.”
