Shannon Sharpe and Matt Chatham went at it on Twitter Saturday night after Sharpe called Julian Edelman a "dirty player" and Chatham disagreed.
It all began with this tweet from Sharpe about Edelman.
Julian Edelman has been fined over 63k dollars for 3 separate unnecessary roughness penalties against Buffalo last Sunday. I've said on numerous occasions for yrs. He's a dirty player. Being small and white gets you labeled gritty, hard nosed, tough. No he's dirty.

He catches passes, but also enjoys the physical part of the game...seeks contact. You caught a ton of balls, but shied away from contact. You wouldn't understand. That you'd resort to weak, terrible analysis...very understandable. https://t.co/kbbYp5aB30

Sit this one out JAG. ---- https://t.co/nUFNUHuK1w

Ya screamed to the ref for help throughout the drive, your voice going up octaves I've rarely heard another man's voice go. He laughed at u. I laughed at u. Take care https://t.co/3WtPuWODnu
