By DjackJosh Norman was heavily criticized after two straight weeks of not covering the other teams best receiver because his coaches only wanted him on one side of the field. After two weeks of watching Bashaud Breeland, the Redskins #2 corner, get cooked time and time again by Antonio Brown and Dez Bryant, they've finally decided to have Josh Norman follow Odell all around the field on Sunday. Every sports fan in the world should be thanking the football gods right now, we get to see the rematch from the heavyweight bout these two players had last year during week 15. As a Giants fan, I'm even more happy about this decision by the Redskins, now everyone will get to see Odell Beckham Jr. make Josh Norman look like a total nobody. Not to take shots at Norman's ability, but Odell would've and should've had about 150 yds and 2 TD's last year on him if his head was actually in the game. This time around I expect OBJ to be locked in from the first to last snap of the game, he's going to play with a chip on his shoulder, and he's going to make Norman look like an overrated system corner that isn't as good outside the Panthers defense. So basically Odell is going to expose Norman for what he is, an average corner that looked special in system that fit his style perfectly. Doesn't mean Norman can't have a good solid career, just means he ain't no Revis, Sherman, or Peterson, that's for sure. Odell is an out of this world talent, he hasn't performed to the best of his ability whatsoever to start the year, this is just another reason I look for him to come out and have a monster game. I can't wait till Sunday to see what unfolds, it's such a treat that Norman came to the NFC East so we could see this matchup twice a year. Strap up your chinstraps boys, it's going to be a real physical matchup come Sunday.
