Norman looked visibly upset during his comments after the game. Dez got in his head. OBJ couldn't do that. You put 2 alphas on a field this is what will happen.

But he really didn't get beat. 3 catches for 32 yards isn't exactly much to brag about. Those are Dez's numbers against Norman in the past 3 games. Yeah, there was that one play where he was open deep but Dak didn't see him. Really ain't much to brag about really.

And for the record, not condoning Norman's shenanigans at all. He's proven through his actions this season that he was far less of the victim in that Giants game last year than he pretends. He likes to get under player's skin, and it looks like he got Dez riled up. I think his goal is to start a rivalry with every dominant receiver in the NFC east. Which is exactly why he hasn't done this stuff to Philly lol.
True the numbers aren't eye popping. The one slant was a huge play for a first after Washington closed the gap and Dez was certainly in Normans head. The timing of his few catches on Norman were crucial, but yeah the numbers don't jump off the page (luckily for Norman Dak missed Dez deep). And the 3rd down play with Fuller on Dez? That was a huge play, a stop and a FG gives Washington a chance. So why did Norman jog past Dez to cover Williams on such a crucial play?

After Dez's first catch it seemed like it was still friendly. After the Chris Jericho ankle twist is when it started to topple over into excessive.

And for the record. Norman AND Dez need to just stop the childishness. It makes them both look foolish and takes away from what we should be talking about...a great game.

Yeah...that's fantasy football world. I like real football. The plays Dez made were pivotal in the game. The one Dak missed would have changed the entire narrative.
I don't do fantasy football. I think it's a joke.all I did was state the obvious.

You get the feeling the NFL may start cracking down on all the smack talking. Things are starting to get out of hand with players agitating each other, causing officials to come over to the sidelines during the game yesterday and have a talk with Dez. Im sure they said something to Norman but another new rule could be in place if this keeps up.

Except, Norman did get beat throughout the night. Norman bit on a play early in the game and Dez had a walk in TD. Watch the plays, Dez was getting the best of him. Dez should have had over 100 yards on Norman, Dak simply missed the big play.

Not buying it. Norm's got the history of having issues with everyone.

Let's be honest now: one official talked to Dez, 3 went over to the Skins side. I think they(refs) knew exactly who was starting this junk and who needed to end it and it wasn't Dez.

Norman is nothing more than a cheap shot waiting to happen...
