Norman should be our Sherman


B.BERSIN

Recommended Posts

Last years playoffs, Sherman becomes a big name with his performance and everyone talks about him. I expect Norman to give us the similar performance cause he's really on the fire right now, he should be a household name after our playoff run.

Opinions?

Nah bro. See Josh Norman just turned  27 yrs old already. Which means by the time summer hits around he'll be 27.5 and have hit his physical peak. Then he'll automatically be past his prime and go down hill. He'll steadily lose his OVR rating in Madden. But of course Gettleman MR. GM dumbass is gonna extend Norman for 3 years. Ha who the fug does that. Extend good players on your team. Then I won't be able trade him and a 1st/2nd/ and 3rd pick on my franchise to New England for Darrell Revis, cuz he's still good right?

Is anyone else expecting overconfidence from our back 7 to cost us at least one TD on Saturday? I'm fully expecting a hard bite from either Norman or Benwikere on a double move from maybe Fitzgerald to give up 6. I'm really hoping with all this positive media attention that the young guys don't start believing their own hype.

I'm sure our coaches and veterans will tell them not to overlook anyone.

I'm not worried about them overlooking anyone, I'm worried about them being over-excited. A home playoff game and the defense is going to want to show out.. especially the young DB's. Their going for picks all night, and being over-eager could cost a big play. I'm cautiously optimistic about this game, and hope I'm wrong about our backfield.

    • Now now now, I wouldn't say there is no logic, but there's just not a lot of in-depth thought put into Barnwell's  "analysis." Now to be fair to him (and other national writers), pre-season team rankings are basically clickbait. And...Barnwell, himself, said that "there's a lot of projection here." He basically admits that he doesn't know how the hell things are going to turn out with our receiver group. He also said that "I find myself" more intrigued by Coker than Legette; that does not mean that he said that fans should be, or that Coker will even be better than Legette (regardless of ESPN's per-route-run stat). So, yeah, Barnwell said some things, but even he has to basically admit that he doesn't know how bad or good that our playmakers will be in 2025.  Overall, what Barnwell is basically thinking is that the Panthers have gotten worse at the offensive skill positions, and baked into that is that others have gotten better. That's the argument in July (meaning, please don't give this any more weight than it's due). I would personally be surprised (not shocked) if we end up worse than the Titans, Pats and Giants at least. Once you throw in the Bills, Giants, Jets, Steelers, and even the Chargers, I personally think there are several teams' skill groups that may end up ranked lower than ours by the end of 2025.  @kungfoodudeis one of my dudes, but like others he is over the tipping point. He's had enough. Seeing is believing. I will say this though: Barnwell's piece is less about logic than just good ol' opinion. And to be honest, he might as well be a Huddler throwing out sh¡t in the summer based upon nothing but good feels or bad feels.  Our offense as a whole (just like any other team's) is going to depend upon the play of the O-line and especially the QB. How you can even rank the skill positions without expressly baking those two things in the cake is beyond me. I would dare say that that's not even logical. 
    • Football is not the professional sport where timidness and apprehension are justly rewarded. 
    • Bryce Young had a super high floor definitely at least won't be a bust safe pick we allegedly had seen in some time.......and went on to have one of the worst rookie seasons of all time.  They are all lotto picks.  And that is especially true for whatever they will be day 1 in the NFL.  I don't think Tmac is a sure thing year 1.  It's not like we watched him do his thing in the SEC.  He was a PAC12 guy.  I'm sure it will take time
