manning vs. norman


Recommended Posts

Demaryius Thomas is a very passive receiver. The matchup will bode well for norman.

i don't have a lot of respect for their WR corps. i think our secondary matches up pretty well.

it's just peyton being able to capitalize on mistakes and windows. the CBs can't allow for any space whatsoever. they can't play soft on any down. they have to press and press hard.

It would be sweet to shut down Thomas.. It seems like Norman matches up better when getting physical at the line. He isn't the greatest in soft zone.. I am a little worried about Decker on either Munny or Thomas.. He is pretty physical. Either way, this game is taking way too damn long to get here.

i don't think any of our guys are comfortable or at their best in a soft zone. it's not playing to their strengths, it's actually playing to their weaknesses.

    • Ron's two seasons he took to figure it out would be massive successes compared to the 2018-Present period. Those 6 and 7 win seasons look pretty great now.  Do you honestly think he will jump up to a 10+ win year in 2026? That's what Ron did.
    • I disagree, a lot of people on here have said their opinions on signees, draftees, coaching hires, who to play etc and have made better decisions than the front office. Not saying they could run a team, but they seem to be better armchair GMs than our current regime the last 6 years. 
    • You might want to look at that table again.  Round 2 has the least QB's taken in that time period. What is more interesting is how the "darts at a dart board" happens in the 6th and 7th round. Those are the 2nd and 3rd most frequently drafted rounds for NFL QB's.  If you are strictly using my criteria for "success" it does lend credence to that not being an awful strategy. At 17-21% chance to get a bare minimum of 30+ starts OR a 5+ year career. That's pretty good for a very throwaway pick. I don't know how that would compare to other positions. I would maybe have to adapt what I have done to something like PFR's Career AV to set a line that accomplished roughly the same result as I have from the spreadsheet. If I can get to a number value, applying this to each position wouldn't be that hard. Not sure how "fair" that is without making some adjustment based on averages for each position. I would have to do that as well, I think. A positional "handicap" of sorts.
