Will Norman see playtime this year?

I believe that this will be his final opportunity.  He shouldn't have any excuses this year. He's sat on the sideline long enough to know what's going on.  I believe that he'll either get regular reps and perhaps end up starting by mid-season, or he'll end up a back-up player or worse.

Yeah we all know, the final play etc but all defenders make mistakes. Don't forget it was Luke's holding that got us in that predicament in the first place.

 

You don't remember the Bills game if you think it was that one play.  

 

He showed flashes but he seems to tighten up in games and not play as loose as he does in pre-season.  He hasn't shown he has that ability to play aggressive yet not get called for PI.  

 

You could almost see his confidence get crushed last year.  Perhaps SS had something to do with it and maybe not going against Smitty will have a positive effect :)

 

He has the physical tools, but I don't know.  Hopefully he turns the corner.

      No one way to do it, it does appear that with the bigger draft picks of the last 5 years…..majority haven’t steered clear of young QBs on the roster being their hopeful guy. Especially past their rookie seasons but even some the biggest ones have had it early.   As far as Andy Dalton, the two young guys he has “mentored”…..have had very rough NFL starts.  Which really ask the why the heck is Dalton here.   He doesn’t really check any box.  No young potential.  Can’t step in and win.  And his mentor track record with Fields and now Bryce is bad

      I had thought the Panthers might let him play out his contract this year and hope he stays healthy. If not draft a left tackle and move Ekwonu to right tackle.

      Frankly, if most teams in the NFL lose their starting QB for a significant amount of time, they're screwed. The fantasy is that one has a future Tony Romo or a Nick Foles that can carry a stacked team. The reality is that you might get roughly 3~5 games out of your backup before it all falls apart. Remember all of Peyton Manning's backups? Utterly terrible. Speaking of backup QB's, Raiders may need one. https://www.nfl.com/news/raiders-qb-aidan-o-connell-suffered-fractured-wrist-in-preseason-finale-expected-to-be-out-6-8-weeks
