Ed Werder - ESPN...lulz

[CRA]

Big name guy....not being very good at his job.

Werder tweeting out this morning that Carolina is trying to push Tillman to get him back...b/c they want him to matchup on Julio Jones.  LOL.  He gets paid for that. 

My 5 yr old knows that the Norman career explosion began last season with shutting down Julio Jones.  Peanut?  Seriously?  How do people get paid just to blurt out random stuff.   I mean, it takes very little effort to get some stuff right.  Ron Rivera would need to be fired on site if that was his "plan"

Who's Josh Norman?

Brad Nortman will cover Julio this game.

I wish I could be that shitty at my job and still get paid.

Could be possible depending on how we run the defense.  We could be puttting Tillman on Julio, rolling coverage to whatever side that is since they like moving Julio so much.  Putting Josh Norman on whoever else to make them non existent. Focus on stopping freeman, then mercilessly pummeling Matt Ryan into oblivion.

But meh, who knows.

Werder is good for Cowboys news.

Anything else? Not so much.

First it's Dave Newton at bspn unable to tell left from right. Now Ed Werder at bspn is having trouble with numbers 1 & 2

It's just, wow

He forgot to put on his thinking mustache today

Actually, teams have been moving their #1 WR around a lot the last few weeks against the Panthers especially moving them to the slot.  It makes sense that the Panthers would want Tillman back for this game as slot coverage has been hurt in his absence with Bene moved to #2.  Plus, most of the Panthers more exotic blitzes rely on Norman staying on his side covering 1 on 1.  Clearly the Panthers don't like Norman moving around as it limits what they can do.

This is Deion Sanders' favorite coverage strategy. Put your best CB on their WR2 and double their WR1. Two is pretty much always going to be better than one in coverage even when the one is as good as Norman and that way you can better eliminate two receiving threats rather than just one.

Josh Norman would probably spontaneously combust if you told him he was covering Roddy White instead of Julio, but it's a very solid strategy.

Disagree. 

Elite WRs destroy double teams and bracket coverage week in and week out in today's NFL.  Take Antonio Brown....the double/bracket/whatever doesn't take him out.  The elite CB play has. 

I don't think you need to overly force it.  Norman doesn't need to be on any player 100% of the time.  He has never done that.  MOST snaps?  Yes, most snaps Norman needs to be w/ Julio.  Which is what Ron will do.

I would push for pnut to be back this week so we don't have to run our God awful zone with Colin jones and Bene getting torched. Then we could play more man, blitz more, kill Matt Ryan, create turnovers, stuff like that .
