Why you don't pay a zone corner top corner money

[ickmule]

I've seen a whole bunch of lack of hustle from 24 tonight. Got paid and got lazy?

Correct me if im wrong but wouldn't Norman always cover the WR1 when he was here? dumb gameplanning by the Redskins, you don't pay a guy 15 mil a year to stick to one side of the field. Isn't the point of him getting all that money so he can stop guys like AB?

I haven't been able to see any of the game yet. So basically the Steelers are not throwing his way and not testing him? 

I think I'll wait until he's tested and exposed before saying anything.

I think it's great that they spent 75 million on him and they're letting Antonio brown light up breeland. Great strategy, skins

to his credit, we rescinded his tag... what did you expect him to do?

Because he was being stupid. And even after that, the offer was still on the table. He chose his own path.

Nope, 49ers haven't thrown his way one time. :)

Skins are something awful.  I remember their fans bitching that the INT they had was called back completely changed the game despite getting blown the hell out last year.  Can't wait for Cam and company to put up 50 on them.  

 

Still not sure why they offered Josh so much.  In the time it would take to build up a defense around him, he'll be well into his 30s...

And if you don't believe it he's a shutdown corner, why the hell did you pay him like one?

Because they're the Redskins.

Josh is going to miss winning..  Oh well

[beastson]

Norman can cover Brown all he wants

Pittsburgh is just going to attack Breeland. Breeland has been burned by everybody, not just Brown

[Proudiddy]

Lol, so you can't move a zone corner from one side of the field to the other?

And Norman shut down multiple #1 recievers as the primary cover guy for us last year, he just happens to predominantly play zone.  He deserved to be paid.  Reshad Breland, on the other hand, looks like he shouldn't even be in the league tonight.  He sucks in coverage and has taken horrible angles on runs, then missed the tackles he was already in position for lol.  He has been atrocious.  But, at least Josh is earning his money.

Just now, thebigcat said:

need I remind you of the Redskins?

 

No. Just pointing out that he was essentially correct about the situation.

[Matthias]

We were never going to pay Norman the money he wanted, but we could have let him play with the tag this year.  We were willing to let Hardy play with the tag when I said not to do it at the time, why did we let Norman walk?

Being able to completely remove an entire side of the field is probably one of the most valuable thing a player can bring. Most teams would take that over a dominant LT or a threatening DE.

 

 

Only matters if that CB can follow the other team's best playmaker. Otherwise you just stick your WR 3 on him and watch your 1 and 2 go off.
