Norman was close to getting a flag last night.

Philly should have fallen on that ball simple as that. That is like fumble recovery 101. He should have learned that in preseason. But I'm not even mad at that or the Wes Horton Jump. Those things can be corrected. It's the d getting raped on the ground that I did not like

I've probably been the biggest Norman supporter on this board, but enough is enough. The guy is a liability and he's not learning from his mistakes.

me too but he seems to want to confront everyone on the other team after he is around a play.  

[Sam Mills Fan]

No, he still fumbled trying to make a play that he screwed up to start with.  starting on the 4 is better than giving them 7 to put the game out of reach.  maybe letting the punt go into the EZ would have been the best play.

 

Still disagree. Percentages tell you that the odds of fumbling twice on a single play are low. All he had to do was pick a ball up off the field with no one around him. Even I could do that. He would have been ripped if he had fallen on it with no one around him. His problem was his klutzy ass DID fumble the ball twice.

i added something else prolly while u were quoting.  u mentioned he muffed when a steeler may have been 10 yards away.  how far away was he when by the time he picked it up?  like 1 second.  he muffed then was stripped, the defense made the play.

And before that Norman almost got a 15 Yd penalty for running his mouth on a different play. I was in the front row of the end zone, drunk off my ass & pissed, & stood on top of the railing watching him run his mouth, and I swear if they had thrown a flag I probably would've charged the field.

Norman is a loudmouth bum. Can't stand him.

[chknwing]

No Brown did the right thing. The nearest Steeler was still about 10 yards away when he muffed it. Falling on it at about the 4 is way worse than picking it up and advancing it to probably the 10.

 

u blind bro, a steeler was 2 steps away from him when he tried to scoop it up.  he falls on it, carolinas on the 13, not the 4.

When he muffs him no Steeler is even in frame. When he tries to pick it up, a Steeler is 8 or 9 yards away.

Philly is at fault for his muffed punt. He did however have enough time to pick it up and run. He just didn't protect it. I wouldn't have faulted him if he did fall on it though. I just don't believe it was a bad decision to pick it up and run.

Norman did it again, and on the 5 yard line at that. He should have just fell on it at that point. It isn't the first time he has made a mistake like this and he clearly hasn't learned. I would be happy if we let him go today. It is jus how I feel.

Philly is a rookie. Norman is not. That does not free Philly of all blame, but Norman should have known better.

[pstall]

Double bad luck on this play. Hits him right in the chest and the steeler player got just enough ball. Then I think Josh tries to scoop it up and it gets worse.

Fall on a loose ball is taught in pee wee. Its smart and safe to do.

Norman is the panthers version of crazy eyes

I don't get the love for Josh Norman

Stupid football players are not worth having on a team.

[General_Purr]

Philly fumbled a ball in the redzone 

 

 

I will take norman getting a flag any day over giving the other team a touchdown from special teams.

[propagandamachine]

Teams know he is easily manipulated and they will aggressively court him.

Norman is also smart to know that some teams smell blood and will try to fang him Dracula style but he also is aware he has no love affair with Ron.

Love the whole drama behind everything.
