The battle between to future pro bowlers in Josh Norman and Odell Beckham was the story in a very entertaining game between the Giants and Panthers yesterday that saw Carolina go to 14-0 in a 38-35 nail bitter. Throughout the game it became clear that Panthers cornerback Josh Norman was very much in Odell Beckham’s head for a vast majority of the game; now it appears Beckham will be punished for losing his cool during Sunday’s loss.
NFL discussing discipline for Odell Beckham Jr. this morning, but based on conversations with league sources, a 1-game suspension is likely.

Many suggested that Beckham should have actually been ejected during the game after launching an unnecessary hit on Norman during the 3rd quarter.
Beckham controversially did not get ejected and finished the game with 6 catches, 76 yards, and a score. The touchdown also had a bit of dissension to it.
Allen Iverson step over. Odell Beckham Jr step over. Same play TBH. #76ers#Giantshttps://t.co/mMMwHQYhvQ
