That Kevin Norwood play that lead to an INT.

Although it was an interception. What impressed me the most is that he chased down that guy and caused a fumble. The kid hustled and made up for his mistake, had everyone been as eager as him to get to the ball, that INT would have been recovered easily. 

 

He literally zeroed in on that ball and punched it out. I like this kid. 

 

Another note would be had he made that catch, he'd be in the end zone celebrating, there was no one in front of him. I can't recall but maybe the throw was a little behind him or was just too hot to handle.  Either way, this kid is progressing nicely. The following weeks should good.

From my seat it should have been a catch, but Cam did lead him pretty good (which I know is the correct pass) and I'm sure it was a rocket. He was upset about it and I liked the defensive hustle he made. I'm ready to see him get more targets.

The guy didn't catch a pass that an NFL WR has to make.  Nothing great about it, as of right now.

Yep. All this Norwood love is just hope. It isn't based on much. Kid hasn't done anything in the NFL yet. HE may one day, but until then he is the 4th string wr on a team with bad receivers. ( too much truth? )

Luckily his gaffe didn't cost us the game. Against the best teams in the NFL, blowing a crucial drive with your team in the red zone with a mistake like that leaving points on the board could cost us big time. I'm not going to be too hard on him since he is new, but I doubt those looking for a silver lining in that play would be so forgiving if we had ended up losing to Houston.

    • Maybe a weeeee bit exaggerating. I think he will be a great player. But that doesn’t look like someone that was super committed in the weight room during college which is just a little confusing. Maybe he cut some weight to try and run a better 40. We saw Julio come into the league a little skinnier, get bigger/stronger and really start dominating. Strength and size is important as a big physical x receiver. It’s not so important for the Devonta Smith role
    • I've watched literally every single snap of T-Mac's career, there isn't a person on these boards who knows his game better than I do.  And I'm telling you, he is a great fit for what Bryce does well, period. You keep talking about these "get open quick WRs" as what Bryce needs, but I couldn't disagree more, because it blatantly disregards what Bryce does best. AND NO.... that's not me saying we don't need any "get open quick" type of WRs, I've long said we still needed one of those in addition to a true outside #1, but it's not the only type of WR that can be a successful pairing with Bryce. Bryce's biggest strength is his mental side of the game, he reads defenses and plays chess instead of checkers.  That type of QB doesn't need to rely on his WR's to quickly create acres of separation because their mental side of the game will mean they are going to put the ball on the WR when they create even minimal separation, as he's going to anticipate it and throw the ball before the WR has even made his cut on the route. AND THAT is where and why Bryce and T-Mac are a great pairing.  When you have a guy with T-Mac's hands and catch radius, he doesn't need 5 yards of separation to get open and have Bryce then get the ball to him.   Bryce is going to be throwing the ball before he even makes his cut, so even if all T-Mac is able to do is create 1 yard of separation, the ball is getting to him when he creates that and because of his hands and size, he's plucking that ball out of the air before the defender even has a chance to close that 1 yard, because the ball is there as soon as T-Mac creates the room and turns his head.
    • I read an article a few days ago that places like Seattle green bay and a few others are revoking tickets rights to holders that sell 100% of their tickets. That would do a lot of good league wide for bringing back some home field advantages. We aren't the only team who's stadiums get over run by visitors. It happens basically everywhere. That would go a long way to bringing ticket costs down
