Josh Norman is smart as hell. Put your fandom aside and see what he's doing. He's trying to get in their heads and win the mind game.

You know when you're guarding a guy and you dare them to shoot the ball.. " shoot It, you can't make **" then they proceed to miss and go into a shell all game? He's testing them. We'll see how they respond.

I only need one thing from Dez when he faces Norman and that is to block him while Zeke is gashing that Commander defense into submission.

Everything in the post was true. Dez put up nearly 100 yards before the Commanders moved Norman in the first game. He did set up multiple TDs. He did Walk on em. Norman did get swept. And 6 for 87 is far from being manipulated. Take it back to the capitol.

Yeah, things aren't true because you want them to be. Should I find video that shows Dez did nothing on Norman and didn't get untracked until the second half. Probably pointless since you know the truth but seem incapable of handling. I'm done, have a good weekend dude.

Dez had 6 for 81 in the first 3 quarters with Breeland in coverage on 5 of the catches. The first two plays he lined up right with Josh on him but stayed on his usual side for most of the game. Barry was an idiot and not having Josh trail was a criticism. He adjusted late but it didn't matter. You're wrong and trolling.

This reminds of a few years ago (2011?) when the Cowboys played the Jets in the season opener while Revis was still in his prime.

Things got heated on the field with constant pushing and shoving brethren Dez and Revis.

Dez was killing the Jet's DB.

Problem was it was Antonio Cromartie not Darelle Revis. But because folks were foaming at the mouth wanting denounce Revis it didn't matter. In reality, Revis gave up just one catch to Dez (a back shoulder fade on the sideline).

Same thing is going on now with Dez and Norman.

Nobody wants Dez to humiliate Norman more than me, but anyone claiming Dez has gotten the better of him in their matchups while with the Skins isn't dealing with reality; the film and numbers don't support that.

If your main go-to highlight is of Dez running by Norman on a route where he wasn't actually thrown the ball, that's telling. It means you don't really have much film of him beating Norman at all.

In fairness to Dez, I'm not sure he's actually played Norman (while w/the Skins) while Romo was healthy. I know when he played Norman when he was on Carolina, Dez was on one leg.

Dez had 3 catches that game. Revis had an INT while covering Dez.

And Josh Norman is Just another over-rated guy.

He got paid, a ton, because he was a good player surrounded by good/great players in a good system.

He's not nearly as good in Washington and Dez "Just A Guy" did pretty good against that so called "Bully" in their games last year.
