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.

    • Gustavsson would be insane. I think we would have to break the bank to afford that move. Which, I don't think is necessarily a bad idea. Ultimately, Freddie isn't likely to be around more than a couple of seasons more. We can all agree that unless they have a fleet of sports psychologists working on Kochetkov, he will never be capable of getting his head on straight enough to compete.
    • I originally hated the Miller deal but with the cap projected to rise nearly $10M next season the Canes struck some pretty good deals between Miller and Ehlers. Most of the team is locked in for the next few years. Nikishin will need an extension probably in the $6M AAV range. And Blake will need one if we don’t move him. Personally I’d move Blake, picks, and any prospect not named Nikishin/Nadeau/Artamonov for McTavish as I don’t see any any of the big time players moving teams next year. Realistically the Hurricanes should just target Gustavsson next year to fix the goal tending issue. But I’m all for moving Blake, picks, and prospects for McTavish this year. Ehlers - Aho - Jarvis Svechnikov - McTavish - Stankoven Martinook - Staal - Carrier Hall - Kotkaniemi - Robinson Jost - Jankowski Slavin - Miller Nikishin - Chatfield Gostisbehere - Walker Reilly Andersen Kochetkov I’d do Blake, Felix-Unger-Sorum, and 27 2nd for McTavish.
    • Very true on the length but stuff like this is never where we shine. We aren’t a good team at drafting.
