Norman making most of chance

Unfortunately, I didn't get to watch the whole game. Of course our game would be the very first Thursday game to be on NFL Network.

However, I did get to see the first half. Norman really impressed me with tight coverage, big play tackles (nice one arm shoe string tackle on Ingram while fighting block), and pass breakup hits. I wish they had him on Graham in the red zone on the last play before half.

So i have to eat crow, as I was one calling for his head after the week three punt return mishap. I wasn't sure he would ever be able to control himself and make good decisions. He was pumped up and trying to get the crowd into it too. He keep his head on straight, at least in the first half. Did he do well in the second half?

You should probably consider yourself fortunate.

Norman has been playing much better, not missing assignments like last year. We might have a keeper in that one.

Yeah, i think we have. Our defense as a whole looked much better at the start of the game. I believe he had a lot to do with that. That run support prob saved some big plays.

    • i think the difference is that we win when we minimize Bryce as part of the offense ala Trent dilfer. look at the games we win and he us always under 200 yards passing. 
    • Which is also why we talk about there being a lower ceiling for Bryce I think Bryce sees the game decently well already given the mess this offence has been for the better part of his career. His big WTF plays are typically him just dropping the damn ball Which leaves me wondering sometimes what does peak Bryce look like. Guys like Sam you’d watch in NY/Carolina and he’d have so many boneheaded plays that you were left thinking if he could just clean these up you’d have a solid QB. And now we’re finally seeing Sam in a good offence and he’s able to play with timing and within structure and those boneheaded plays are cut down to 2-3 times a game Bryce doesn’t have a ton of boneheaded plays (minus flat out dropping the ball) so I dunno. I think Bryce can be a solid QB. Put Bryce in Seattle or Tampa and they’re still winning a lot of games  Coaching and overall team matters so much. The only dude that I think could probably do the most with the least in this league would be Lamar 
    • They both struggle with that but Lawrence is a significantly better athlete and an INSANELY more physically gifted passer. He has very limited reasons to be struggling the way he has. I will say, when he came into the league I specifically remember an interview that he basically intimated that he would be okay if his life didn't involve football and I have always questioned if he was passionate enough to be elite from that moment onward.
