Talk is talk.

Slamming is more excessive than talking.

P.S. I'm sure that wasn't the first word either of them had exchanged on that possession.

That is not talk. That is Odell administering a choke hold to the throat of Norman during a running play while it is his job to explosively shed that illegal block and get to the ball carrier.

Norman did his job. If Odell does not want to be put on the ground as a blocker, then he needs to learn how to block with a better base so he does not get taken off his feet and put on the ground in the leverage game.

Here is a close up during the running play; before the body slam. See the choke hold? Odell loves to grab and lock the head of defenders on run plays. It was just a matter of time until he met his match with the dirty physical play on DBs he has been throwing down since last season.

This is how Odell run blocks: Head shot, throat punch, head shot, choke hold, head shot, head shot, run back and spear the head. What a combo. He did it to Finnegan too. 

Odell does this to every DB he faces not just Josh Norman. Norman did his homework and knew what was coming. He was prepared to stand up to Odell and call his dirty blocking tactics out with the play on the field. Not backing down, and now Odell is a target to be a 15 yard penalty waiting to happen every play for the Giants. Going to mess his game up. Odell is a street fighter and a track star. He does not play football.

I am sure Odell was told what would happen if he tried this crap. Julio Jones was warned last week by Norman. Julio stopped the cheap shots. Odell thought he could keep up that crap. At least Julio went to the body and not the head.

When you post something that supplants this comment, I'll write something else.

Beckham on Cam and Norman before the game:

http://www.nfl.com/videos/nfl-network-gameday/0ap3000000604830/Beckham-I-m-excited-to-see-Cam-play

Like I said in the other thread, I don't mind the fact that Norman wanted to get into Beckham's head, in fact, I think CBs should do that (within certain boundaries, of course), but the fact remains, Norman "started it" when he picked up Beckham and slammed him during the Giants' first possession, and you could tell Beckham was surprised by it. 

Doesn't change the fact that he lost it, but he clearly didn't enter the game planning to leave it hating Norman. 

Beckham would've been a Panther if he could've chosen. 

And if OBJ had stopped after the first quarter, like Norman after they talked to and told they would incur penalties, we wouldnt be talking about it today. But OBJ not only continued but escalated with cheap shots knowing Norman had dialed it back and OBJ could do it with no consequence. There is huge difference between the two.

      Dave Tepper gives Canales and Dan Morgan vote of confidence

      By mav1234 · Posted

      There's some big assumptions in here - first, I think Canales HAS helped Bryce a poo ton. To pretend he hasn't is asinine. Has he fixed him?  I mean, the dude looks like he could perhaps be a backup or low-end starter now, whereas he looked like he didn't belong in the NFL a year ago. You're talking about a coach that brought one of the worst NFL QBs of all time to a point where he may actually be a low-end starter. That IS impressive. Second, the bolded. Come on - given the offense, the dude is far from "trending towards bust." He definitely needs work but he's shown an impressive ability to get open. He's contributing to an anemic offense. The dude is our leading receiver (though he'll be #2 in yardage by end of season by a little, as Thielen does better per game).  As to his coaching, he had this team competing and believing against 3 of the better teams in the NFL, despite the lack of talent, and despite our QB situation.  Yes, things fell apart vs DAL, and he was outcoached. But that will happen with young coaches IMO.  I don't think it indicates he cant' be better. The idea of "pulling off the bandage" is ridiculous. Who would want to coach here if we fired this guy after one season?

      Has this game changed feelings about Young?

      By electro's horse · Posted

      Whatever they are in totality the cowboys are beat up all to hell on both sides of the ball and even that was too much for lil Bryce to overcome.  Bryce defenders have to hype up every other team and trash every other part of the panthers just because of the situation they’ve put themselves in.

      BREAKING: Panthers Announce Four Moves Including LB Trevin Wallace To IR

      By SCO96 · Posted

      JB had a first round grade in the eyes of a lot scouts based on HIS TALENT LEVEL. If not for the injury he would have gone higher in the draft, possibly between the middle and the end of round 1. To get him just before the 50th pick is a steal. He'd be on a 4 year deal. You can't even renegotiate until the end of the season 3. You're basically paying him nothing for 3 seasons. I don't buy into all back are interchangeable. No they're not. You have average backs, good backs, then your great-exceptional backs. The latter category doesn't grow on trees. If a back is special it pays to keep them. The key is knowing the difference between the first two categories and the third one.
