What followed
Coming back from break, he says he, Norman, is good, not great. And he says he won't call him great because of the lack of longevity. Says this is Norman's first year starting a full 16 and its only his 4th year or so in the league. Also says he is helped by playing with the best LBs in the league. Says instead, Thomas Davis should be considered for DPOY.

Also went onto name his top 5 CBs, who all played man predominantly, which has been a consistent issue brought up regarding Norman's legitimacy as the DPOY. He essentially said our system isn't conducive to shutdown corners.

A CB can't win Defensive Player of the Year if you are in a zone scheme I'm sorry..

It can't and won't happen

Where did this infatuation with Josh Norman come from? Is he like the new cool guy to like so that people/analysts can feel they discovered something?

Guarantee he won't last.

Norman is on a defense that has Uncle Luke, TD, Chi Raq Short, and Star Lotuleilei.....

It's not really a stretch to say he's the 4th or 5th best player on our defense...:yeshrug:

Our front 7 made Captain Munnerlyn look good, people need to remember that...

Sigh... just shut up Josh. I love the confidence, but u can't boast about being the best when others on the team have been just as good such as kawann, uncles luke and Tommy. Hell, even Coleman has been a surprise. U can say ur the best cb, but saying your the best dpoy is kinda shytting on your own teammates.
