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.

    • Yep. It was an obvious red flag that a lot of people ignored. The results/scores in preseason don’t matter, but individual performance very much does and individually, we looked like the least talented team in the league and it carried over.
    • Sorry, but in 2015, we didn’t look like poo to the extent of 2023. People who said it’s just preseason were completely wrong. Simple as that. 2015 was a veteran lead team. It was Cam’s 5th year and Luke’s 4th. Even our OL was 80% the same (added Oher) as the great run to finish 2014 with a playoff win. That year can be labeled as preseason doesn’t matter because I’m sure we rested vets and well, Ron/Mike weren’t putting in special plays, etc. I absolutely don’t recall a bunch of us saying that Turner was getting killed on one on ones or that Luke was completely out of position or that Norman was hurt again but probably fine. The only thing that was right about the 2023 preseason is that the minority of us who saw it, were correct that we A) should have been making Young and others play 100% of the reps as there was nothing to hide and B) the preseason means nothing was a bunch of BS trying to stay optimistic when it was obvious that we had way less good talent than the rest of the NFL.
    • You are telling me Paul Maurice is a better coach than Rod??? Yes!!!  It’s because he plays a better system and has a better goalie.   Our system sucks in playoffs and he refuses to roll with Koochie. Dallas cowboys level poo
