So they want to get crazy? Then lets get crazy.

Now that the playoffs are out of reach and the offensive line is in a huge mess, lets talk about combinations you would be curious in seeing. 

For me, I would love to see Norwell at left tackle. 

Norwell is 6-6 and looks every bit the part of a left tackle. 6'6, long ass arms, 310 pounds. 

Considering how well and often he pulls, the Panthers must know he has quick feet. Norwell has left tackle experience at Ohio State where he started numerous games at the position. The guy has done nothing but prove he can handle anything thrown at him so far, so why not throw a bit more with no pressure, just for shits and giggles? 

Remember, Norwell would have never even had a shot at playing to begin with until an injury forced Rivera's hand.

Just now, Jeremy Igo said:

Travelle Wharton started as a solid guard and played very well at tackle. Its been done before. 

Part of me wonders if that'll be a trend in future seasons because tackle play at the college level right now is mostly garbage.

The spread / air raid / whatever type systems they're running in so much of the college game just don't translate well to the pro level so tackles are taking longer to develop.

Might work a hell of a lot better than a converted defensive tackle. 

 

:(

He was an offensive lineman first as that is what he was recruited to UCLA as. played tackle his freshman year

If Norwell could make a smooth transition to Left Tackle, which IMO I think he could big bodied tall long armed MEAN offensive lineman all the qualities you need, that would also give us some breathing room and seek a guard in the draft which there are some good ones you could get in the 2nd and 3rd round of this years draft.

    • They said there wasn't clear evidence to warrant the overturn.  How would it have made a difference at that point in the game?   https://www.nbcsports.com/nfl/profootballtalk/rumor-mill/news/nfl-privately-admitted-to-erroneous-reversal-of-catch-by-panthers
    • Me, I'm sick of WWE channel hopping their PLEs and shows. Netflix now with Raw. USA still has Smackdown but you can't get it with Roku if you don't also have cable. Then they went from all the PLEs on Peacock to ESPN+ which required upgrading your Disney+ package. Then they frikkin' move Saturday Night Main Event with John Cena's retirement match back over to frikkin' Peacock, which we'd just cancelled two months prior because no PLEs there anymore. And there are fewer, but longer matches and its the same danged stories again and again. Rematch after rematch after rematch between PLEs. Fewer matches, fewer wrestlers, more promos (of lesser quality) and less action.  It just seems like it's all fillers and re-runs. I'm tired of Cody Rhodes. I'm tired of Jey Uso. I'm tired of the two Brons. Shuffle the deck a bit guys, this game's getting stale.
    • Chuba was 3 yards behind the 3 gap. He was lined up weak offset I. It was a 33 dive. Chuba needed to power through off of Ekwonu's block and slip off into the 5 gap where the Tremble had the lane sealed and Rick pulled the LB out of the 5 gap. Here's a visual if you need proof. Chuba did a jump cut laterally to the 2 gap on the right side with unblocked defenders crashing down and went airborne.   This is a 33 dive that should have been slipped off the block into the 5 gap. Chuba lacked vision, but you can see Rico and Bryce staring at the intended running lane sealed off by Tremble and Ekwonu. He should have read Ekwonu's block. The blocking and misdirection is NOT set up for the right side. The play worked. Chuba failed to execute on this play. Trust who you want to, but I wouldn't suggest you argue with the video. Anyone telling you this was drawn up to go right with the blocking did not analyze it. They are correct it should have been a called dive, and it was a called dive.  This was a weak offset I bringing Tremble in motion from the right to the left.
