Norwell Picks Up Where He Left Off

Definitely a Gem and glad we signed him. 

I remember they were talking how when they broke the huddle.  He always yelled break or something to that effect.  Kind of motivating the rest of the players.   Guys like him are infectious.  Get a couple like him.  Big and Nasty like Williams is supposed to be.   We'll have a mauler front line like our defensive front line. 

Nasty Hog Mollies.

I know we need him at guard , but could he be transitioned to tackle if another starting guard became available ?  Would he have what it takes ?  Just thinking that it might be easier to find a quality guard than tackle and this guy looks determined enough to do what ever it takes to play.  I mean he would be better at tackle than Amini I would guess.

Just doing some reading, and Norwell is 6' 6" and played some Left Tackle in college so this really isn't too crazy an idea.

A lot of lineman make the mistake of overextending.  They forget the angle the DL needs to take to get to the QB and they chase the DL, losing most of the time.  Norwell gets it.  He does not waste motion.  Been saying that since last season.  I LOVE Norwell.

It looks like he has the athleticism, footwork and hands to consider at Tackle, but the problem is that he isnt tall enough or have enough wingspan. 

He is fantastic at guard though. 

6' 6" isnt tall enough to play tackle? And while 33 5/8 inch arms arent ideal it is still longer than the Premier tackle in the league in Joe Thomas

    • That's neither on Ickey nor Bryce, that's a coverage sack. There were plenty of examples where he drifted into pressure or didn't move in the right direction, but on this play we sent two men out deep and Max Protected with both TEs and the RB staying back to block. Both receivers were completely covered down the field with zero checkdown options and the pass rush got home. Bryce took a deep drop back due to the PA and to let the receivers get deeper. That was the play design This sack isn't "Clearly on the QB". There were plenty of examples where Bryce drifts in the pocket or bailed toward pressure last season (open up a random clip from the Jags game for examples), but this is not one of them. Blame Frank and his dumbass playcalling/design for sending two slow receivers who don't get open well on deep routes with no other options on this one.
    • Some things look horrible but you had the position covered. Some things look horrible because they really were.
    • Well this one is more like it, 28-3 Falcons in the 3rd before I just stopped.  Sorry.  Bryce lovers: watch the Chicago game not this one. Bet the farm on Bryce.
