Norman: I would not bat the ball away

A comment Norman made to Black & Blue review on the long completion to cobb (?) "I would never bat the ball away,  I'm a stats sheet stunner". That play kept the drive alive on a crucial fourth down play for the Packers. He could have  knocked it away and killed the drive. Interesting comment.

IMO I think he means if he has a play he can make a move for an INT....he will try for it.  I mean, obviously he has laid out to bat balls. 

I think it was poorly articulated.  But Norman is at least truthful.  He IS A STATS guy.  He turned down a contract extension.  He wants to hit the open market with great numbers.  

So don't expect him to catch a INT late to seal a game and take a knee to ensure the game is over.  Dude gonna try to run in back for a score.

    • It’s like being on the Flyers broadcast team feed so far
    • Boy the flyers look good early. Lots of bad plays and slow start by our team. Hope that changes before the score changes.
    • I guess I should have stipulated outside the sacred cow.   I complained from year one that Bryce should compete for and win the starting job on his own merit but no he was just handed it. I have been right there with everyone that wants competition.  But I don’t really have a huge problem with it for this season the way it has gone because where are the viable people we don’t have to trade for? I actually am okay with tiny hands Pickett because he is so close to Bryce arm strength wise and to be honest, skill wise. Probably. And it is only a one year deal.  That also takes into account that the QB class is looking stacked next year and if Young fails miserably then we get either a reset or a real competition and there will be more guys that I would like looking at in the FA QB class next year as well.    I sort of accept where we are this year and look at it as another treading water year (at QB). I just want to get to next year with some clarity. More than anything. And they did empty out the room. Again, who was really there for us?  And I know it would not be a true competition at this point anyway. They are giving him the year, like it or not.    Also I don’t give a poo about winning games IF he sucks and or goes down after sucking because draft position and that stacked QB class.  And I want out from under him So Bad.     So I guess it is several factors that lessen my anxiety over his backup this particular season.    I am not trying to convince anyone, but you asked. That’s how I look at it.
