Norman wants to be Optimus Prime

Rather than get psyched out about the matchup, Panthers reserve cornerback Josh Norman is taking a different tack in preparing for Johnson, who had seven catches for 164 yards and two touchdowns in the victory against the Giants. "Mega-tronnnn," said Norman, stretching out the final syllable. "I’ll try to be Optimus Prime, brother. That’s his common foe (among Transformers). I’m having fun with it, I really am."

Norman Island.  He shall travel around the nation,  completely shutting out every star WR in the NFL.

 

 

 

 

 

 

then the fantasy music ends and the reality appears ...  Norman getting mad,  and attempting to fight Megatron...and two minutes into the game,  Rivera pulls him out and he is not heard from again.

He said he was having fun and trying to be Optmus Prime. That's as much trash talk as callIng Suh Donkey Kong. WTF?

If it isn't Byron Bell, it's Godfrey

if it isn't Godfrey it's Norman

If it isn't Norman talk about LaFell's bad hands.

 

wash, rinse, repeat

If he gets the chance, imagine him lined up on Smitty in week 4.

 

They'll both get ejected on the first play.

That's probably what we're hoping for lol. I would rather have Benwikere or Cason on Smitty 

 

If they do put Norman on Smitty I hope he doesn't talk about his wife... Then it'll really be blood and guts everywhere

    • Scourton's interviews are telling to me that it's only a matter of time before he could really put it together.  His limitation tool-wise that I see is in his bend, but at the leaner size, it looks like it wasn't a problem at Purdue.   He has a good moveset and reads leverages very well (vet level well).  Plays both the speed/quickness (great change of direction) and has a power game with good hand usage.  Moves from what I've seen in my digs: I'm seeing cross-chop, fake crossers into bull, bull rush, spin (his preferred move of choice), hand shuck.  He's not unrefined by any means.   If he can do 2 things---I'm feeling confident from seeing his interviews that we have a real dude on our hands: 1) Diversifying his moveset/how it's deployed - Over-reliant on some, but again, he has a growing palette.  And is already great with his hands so things are in-place to coach up. 2) Developing a counter moveset and starting to play the chess game with an OT - He's very good at reading leverage, knowing when to change things up during a play.  But NFL coaching should start to teach him how to really create a plan based on an opponent.  What to throw at a guy first, how to confuse with fakes/counters, etc.  How to play against these tackles as a game progresses.   Overall, he has some things that give me serious optimism: Run Defense, speed moves, power moves, he's super young and has the size/length.  When you really spell it all out, I think we should get excited.  Temper expectations from a stat sheet standpoint, but he should be able to go in and make an impact.    
    • Scourton may not get double digit sacks, but he won't be a liability on every other down
