"Josh Norman has not seen a guy on Julio Jones's level"

And yet Josh has pretty much shut his ass down the last few times we played them.

Jones is a great WR....Josh is just a better CB.

Redundant and almost like you didn't read my comment in it's entirety.

"Do I think he will, no, but it's possible"

I've been the one of the biggest Josh guys for awhile, ask CRA.

Julio Jones (twice). Dez Bryant, DeAndre Hopkins, Allen Robinson, TY Hilton, Mike Evans (twice), Josh Gordon, Doug Baldwin, and Cooks. 

That's the list of guys Norman has shut down during our win streak. Most of these guys receive their yards and receptions running away from Norman in zone coverage. 

He's very much ready for the challenge that Julio is going to bring. As he said on ESPN GameDay "Julio Jones completes me."

With Atlantas tendency to target Julio as well as Eli to OBJ I would think there's a good chance we see Delta at least one more time this season. Teams are going to target their studs. Luckily ours should be up to the task.

Shhhh, let 'em talk. Let them believe for a few more hours. That look on their faces when Josh pulls down that first pass is just priceless -- all that hope and bravado crashing to the ground at once, the look of loss and embarrassment. The forlorn look on the QB's face as Josh runs off, back to the Bat Cave.

    • I think we have some revisionist around it here because of all the drama around Tepper's involvement. If you pull up any scouting report from the time you'll see the same take. WalterFootball's report sums up the media's thoughts on him well: "Young has everything the NFL is looking for in a quarterback except in terms of weight and height." He was the consensus top QB of his draft and the only real question mark they had about him was whether his body could hold up in the NFL. The infamous Steph Curry comparison the Panthers latched onto came from Albert Breer. The excuses I've heard for him are more anecdotal. Bryce Young's development is the only bullet point most NFL fans have on the Panthers right now. That and the coaching turnover. If you're not actually watching our games it's easy to believe this is just a dysfunctional organization that doesn't know how to unleash this talented Heisman winner.  I've seen media and fans alike run with that narrative way more than criticizing Young outright. Whenever we win there's flocks who use it as proof that the Panthers just need to be patient.  
    • So maybe 1-3 vs playoff teams, going by standings as of today. I guess that is an improvement.  We are just about improved enough to be in purgatory draft wise. It really isn’t so bad in the 1st unless you really want that top QB or maybe edge guy because there are usually plenty of good players at the top but it hurts you some as get deeper in the draft.
