Norman / Bene next season.

I think Bene makes his way up to starting corner based off his early play. Another offseason under his belt and he is ready.

 

 

Pretty solid young duo corners, no?

 

I agree. Our secondary has the potential to be much better with 1-2 young, solid additions. I believe Bene, Norman and possibly White could be the cornerstones of a very good secondary with more experience. I would like to see us try White at SS/FS where he excelled in college. I just don't think he has the speed @ CB maybe he'd do better at safety IMO.

Bene has been promising, but Norman has just been so up and down throughout his career that I have a hard time trusting him to the point of penciling him in as a starter next season.  If Norman and Bene end up as the starting CBs, that's great, but I hope Gettleman doesn't count on it.

I think Bene is better suited at nickel. Moving Bene to the outside is doing the Captain situation all over again.

Ideally Norman is our #2, Bene stays nickel and we find a #1. Obviously those aren't easy to find or come cheap so that's an issue. Maybe Marcus Peters ends up being BPA when we're picking.

If Norman continues to get better, he will be an elite corner.  I mean how many corners have the stuff to stop the run?  Norman has shown he can do that, and cover like a playmaker.  It's also rare that a player goes from being chastised by coaches (and fans), to having good success.  You want those kinds of players on your team.  It shows you their work ethic.

      Unsustainable

      It's not sustainable,  although he deserve credit for the win also, as he made clutch plays as he does with every win we have.

      The Panthers win streak is masking substandard quarterback play

      By pantherclaw · Posted

      As much as I would love to sit here and bash on Young.  I can't.   He is absolutely a part of this team winning.  He is the cool hand leading the offense along with the hammer, Rico.  He's making plays on 3rd and 4th downs, that are absolutely helping thus team win.  Is Bryce playing as well as we'd like? Nope. Although he had only 1 week off from a high ankle sprain.   No question he was 100% in the Greenbay game.  I'm not even sure where the team would find a clear upgrade over Byrce.  He is a leader.  In the 4th quarter, he has ice in his veins.  He is a part of why our team is enjoyable to watch again.  Without him, we wouldn't be winning.    Anyways.  Y'all enjoy yet another thread designed to tear down the man.

      Great article on all the Lil Canes attending their debutantes ball. Walt with a great breakdown of all the rookies, as always, and I'm a huge fan of his team coverage, he is truly a treasure, but as a fan of mixed metaphors and superfluous language which some might ignorantly refer to as a "run-on sentence" I never really understood what that mean or where to put the comma after a quote in the middle of a sentence, but holy poo Walt, this is a gem, "While there's a long road left in front of them left to determine whether or not they'll have that same success on the blue line again, the beginning stretch of the journey has been thrown a wrench, and the story on defense has been the emergence of up-and-comers forced into becoming lineup regulars." , bravo, take a bow, sir!
