One of the things I am most excited about for Sunday is sticking it to Pep

Ever since the messy exit of Julius Peppers, every time we have faced him, he plays his best football against us. I specifically remember his first game against the Panthers as a Bear, he played lights out.  Remember him shushing the crowd after an interception?

I don't know our record against him, but have we ever beaten him?

Anyway, not to derail my own thread but I know football is a business and he didn't want to be here, I just thought the way he left town was pretty crappy.  I'm sure there was mistakes made on both sides of the negotiations, but a lot of his fans were pretty upset none the less.  He will go down as one of the best defensive Panthers ever. 

Anyway, if the Panthers win this game, for me and I know many of you, bearing Pep will be extra icing on the cake.

keep pounding

They wouldn't give Peppers the money he wanted, I think he wanted to stay though. Until he realized he wasn't gonna get the money, then he definitely got pissed off.

I'm pretty sure it's the complete opposite actually. Marty Hurney made him an offer to be the highest paid DE in the league..

Don't really care anymore. Remember he was about to come back here last year before the packers swooped in. It's too bad now, he would be huge for us.

 

its gonna be a lot more of a pain in the ass to play hardy. Peppers may have been motivated to beat us, but I worry that hardy, who is crazy, will have worse intentions against Cam.

Peppers is irrelevant at this point  

I'm more excited about the possibility of going 8-0 for the first time in franchise history, gaining a leg up for home field advantage in the playoffs, and cementing ourselves as the best team in the NFC.

Lol wut.

Holding on to grudges is non productive unless you enjoy being angry and feeling like a victim. If "sticking it to Pep" is your #1 motivation for watching the game, I think your priorities are out of whack.

      Panthers HC Dave Canales hints at adding more weapons for QB Bryce Young

      By strato · Posted

      I am trying to remember when I EVER said reach for need. My thing if someone falls you jump, if you can trade back a few slots and get help at the right value and pick up some ammo to move up from 51 which I think is outside the money zone, then you do that.   Take a WR later. Plenty of capable WRs have come from the 3rd round. Though this year I would go for C there if there was a reasonable choice. Take a TE if you must. I see more reason to take WR than TE. I think you give guys drafted two years ago and last year a chance to develop before cancelling them.    I think it is kind of unrealistic to throw everything all in on offense in hopes of going deep in the playoffs after an 8-10 year, even if it did have some nice bright spots in it.    And outside of this argument but relevant to it, I am bothered by Canales and Morgan and their apparent posture that we have arrived and are now in the big boy club. I don’t know where that comes from. They are out there talking like they are winners at 8-10. Backing into the playoffs in a real convoluted tie breaker scenario. They had some good games, yes. But the big feather n the cap, the LA Rams matchups, did you see what the Rams did? They didn’t fire the coaches but they fired their defensive backs. Bryce beat them yes, and it was pretty, but it was kind of like the Bucs and Mike Evans picking on our decimated secondary in 2022. Someone (Wilks) went down for allowing that to happen and they went down in LA too.  Wr aren’t as good as a whole lot of homers think we are. Shore up the trenches.    I think too many fans buy into it because they are so starved for anything that looks like a winner.

      2025 Draft Re-Grades (Or, One Idiot Doubles Down)

      By Raskle · Posted

      How exactly does one win OROY "by default"? Wouldn't winning the award mean that of the two, McMillon stayed strong the entire year while the other guy didn't and fizzled out? That's like saying Secretariat only won by default because the other horse stopped moving midway through the race. Absolutely zero logic in that statement, which makes me very glad that I've never really paid much attention to Walterfoozball.

      Who was the better HC - Rivera or McDermott?

      By Basbear · Posted

      I agree, teams in the past have fired the HC in order to retain a coach on staff...hell it happened to Mcderp this year, rams in the past and Im missing another.  The fall off for the Panthers team defense was huge once Mcderp leftd and Ron could not fix it even when he named himself DC.
