Josh Norman

[bigdog10]

What happened to him?

I know he had a couple rough weeks and agree with is benching, but is there no place on the field for him currently?

Moving forward, would a transition to safety make sense. He lacks speed but seems to be instinctive and is a solid tackler.

He's in Rivera's doghouse.

Read the I wish I knew thread.

[Rubi]

He doesn't have the body type for safety

He can develop into a Gamble type corner over time though. He's tall, long and is able to elevate for the ball to defend passes. He just plays soft all the time...

Read the I wish I knew thread.

Yeah, just saw that.

Some good points. I just didn't see enough bad to warrant a benching. Even in poor play, I think he's outplayed Thomas.

However, we are winning games since the move so what do I know

[Jackofalltrades]

Thomas has been very good. Not quite as good a tackler, but is very physical and gives up no room.

[Herbert The Love Bug]

Thomas and Dockery have played better. It's as simple as that

I have yet to see Thomas play soft, he covers his players a hell of a lot better than Norman. Norman plays off of every single WR he faces by about 7-10 yards and has given up to many big plays to warrant not being benched long ago. Thomas, Captian and Campbell has out played him and deserve to play over Norman.

[Chaos]

I've noticed that the only time Norman is up close on a WR is when he's talking poo to him after giving up another reception due to the massive cushion.

[Zod]

One can only think it was something he did in practice. Missed one perhaps?

[Swaggasaurus]

Yeah, just saw that.

Ohh my damn. Josh Thomas has played outstanding, not outstanding for a scrap heap scrub, just outstanding.

[TopCat]

He was caught talking to Gettis about riveras daughter

[panthers55]

The old doghouse theory just does't hold water most of the time. Players are graded on every play every week in games and in practice. If a guy isn't playing it is because he is not grading out the best at hat position, plain and simple. Norman was playing ff his man and making mistakes. Since he was benched the secondary has improved. Frankly the guys who have come in are hungry and aggressive. They deserve to play over Norman.

Tbh he hasnt come close to outplaying Thomas, so I don't know what your watching
