Josh Norman Gives Us A Lesson On Technique (Video)


Recommended Posts

The casual/average Panther fan wouldn't know how personable Norman is.  Sure he's a trash talker on the field but off the field you will be hard pressed to find a professional athlete (in any sport) as cool as he is with the fans. I had my own preconceived ideas about him and they were all dashed when I got to meet him at the Draft Party (thanks again Jeremy).  Dude talked, answered questions, joked around, and most impressive was the attention he gave to each person individually.  No big-timing at all.  Love this guy and hope he continues to improve/grow and stays a Panther for years to come.

This should be a contract we redo before the year starts.

I agree 100% but I don't think it fits gettlemans philosophy. Been routing for this kid since we picked him out of coastal carolina, he's grown a lot since his rookie year. Hope we get him locked up before we can't afford him. Star potential.

I don't know if it's Gettleman or these players' agents that is preventing these contracts from happening but it seems around the league, any good player is letting their contact go into the last year for leverage and waiting for other players' contracts to pump up the market value.

That trend will quickly reverse when a premier player gets a career ending injury on his modest rookie contract. Let's hope it doesn't happen here.

    • Yeah, Franklin was a good ST guy that could fill in at safety IN AN EMERGENCY. But he was still better than Scott, IMO.
    • I get that, but given his college production, his actual skill set, and what he's shown in camp, he really just seems like the only way he doesn't at least play to his floor is if he can't stay healthy or he just gets a huge head and stops putting in the effort, the latter of which I don't see happening. So hopefully he stays healthy (knock on wood), but there's unfortunately no way of predicting health, you can really only predict a player not able to stay healthy if they already had problems doing so in college.
    • In it self no it's not a bad thing. It becomes an issue when they brought back Austin to play on IR most of the season again. That's not a knock on Mays but the situation. It's BC at LG all over. But on the flip side that's how they were forced to go out and sign a good LG the next year.  All of the talk and hope of improvement comes down to guys like Mays taking that step. There is something developmentally going on that Im not impressed with going on with this team. Austin and Dalton were 2 guys they obviously can't lean on at this point and yet both are still here taking up space.
