Saw this posted on BBI during free agency, but thought it deserved its own thread this week
| Odell Beckham's stat line and antics during the game overshadowed that he eviscerated Norman in one-on-one situations. Beckham dropped a 50-plus-yard touchdown on their very first qualifying snap of the game; he dropped an out route soon after before Eli Manning missed him down the seam when he was wide open for another potential long touchdown. For the game as a whole, Beckham beat Norman nine of 10 times. It was one of, if not the most lopsided matchup since this analysis method was created. |

If Odell keeps his composure, he could have the monster game vs. Norman that he should've had last year.
It's no knock on Norman that he can't cover Odell Beckham one-on-one with consistent success. Nobody can. It speaks highly of Norman that he would even be asked to cover Beckham one-on-one.

Norman knows how much he can do and say on the field so if I was to guess who is more likely to draw a personal foul or unsportsmanlike conduct penalty, it still could be OBJ.
Norman's meltdown may come after the game when he accuses the rest of the defense of not helping him out.
You should have seen how deep those safeties on the saints were playing last week especially shadowed to his side. They were giving up the run entirely which is scary that we couldn't run. But beckham will get his. I did see at the game when they lined up with no help late - I knew they were going deep to him there but he dropped it. He will have a monster game soon.
In fairness, he had a couple drops last week that make it a monster game. He's beating him man, he just needs to finish.

What does this even mean? How is that a counter to OBJ wooping his ass last year?
I think its sarcasm...

I do'nt think a baseball bat made him drop a pass. The guy didn't keep his composure and had a drop, but it was the same type of drop as he had last week, so I don't think "getting into his head" has anything to do with it. He needs to refine his game a bit in that area, not really worried about it.
But what was his PFF rating?

The video is of Norman sacking Russell Wilson on a delayed corner blitz. Pretty epic play.
Maybe one blitz on Eli unless they thought Wilson was susceptible to it (and he was).

Fekker see that!

I think just below Carson Wentz!
