It’s probably time we introduced a new name into the ‘best cornerback in the NFL’ discussion that regularly rages.

You’re probably going to be surprised which one. though: Carolina’s Josh Norman.

Norman is currently our top-graded cornerback through four weeks of the season, with coverage numbers that have been looking eye-popping for a while dating back to last season.

 

The article delves into his numbers this season,  compared to last season......and his numbers this season compared to the other perceived "top Cbs",  this season.

That's my corner back *sniff*

[Pox 08]

Damn,  He gonna get paid big.

[Marguide]

Yeah, but he's just so emotional and stuff.

And he get's penalties too!

I think we should be looking for his replacement. Someone more in control.

[Pox 08]

My favorite part..

 

He allowed 291 yards all season, and just 74 after the catch. QBs throwing his way in 2014 had a passer rating of 53.2, and between interceptions and passes defensed he broke up 10 passes.

As impressive as those numbers are, he’s improved this season. He has already been targeted 35 times, but has maintained his shutdown levels of completion percentage (42.9 percent). He has allowed 129 yards so far, but at a lower average than a season ago, and already has four interceptions across four games.

Opposing quarterbacks targeting him this season have a passer rating of just 23.1, the best mark in the NFL, edging out Darrelle Revis (23.9).

It's been entertaining and somewhat unbelievable to watch the late rounder from Coastal Carolina morph from a talented liability to a premier player. I hope we keep him.

Nothing a franchise tag can't solve

[Sam Mills Fan]

NFL media has fallen in love with him even more than Cam or Luke. If both us and the Falcons have a great record in December, the hype for Norman vs. Julio Jones will be really big.

No matter what I'll be very surprised if he's not in Carolina next season. Yeah Gettleman apparently doesn't pay backs, that's mainly cos we had nobody worth paying, sure Munnerlyn was a nice player but he's nowhere near where Norman is right now,

Talent and experience is what got him looking like a man possessed out there.

I was thinking of starting a thread but ill just put this here:

https://www.profootballfocus.com/blog/2015/10/05/worst-players-at-every-position-for-week-4/

 

Apparently we had 3 people also make the worst player at their position this week:

Jared Allen -4.4 (to the Surprise of noone who saw the game)

Shaq Thompson -7.1 (he's up and down with some good then terrible plays)

Oher  -2.8 (no surprise here either)

 

 

[Panther53521]

12 PD (ESPN only has 8), 4 INT, FF, Fumble recovery and 2 TDs in 4 games.

If he continues this pace , the only way we keep him next year is to tag him.

He will be wanting to be as the highest paid corner.

So is he officially out of Rivera's dog house?
