Explain to me why you feel Peppers earned a million yesterday

Let's just take a look at his stats.

4 tackles

2-6-PHI 30 (6:18) (Shotgun) 36-B.Westbrook up the middle to PHI 32 for 2 yards (96-T.Brayton, 90-J.Peppers).

1-10-CAR 32 (2:41) 36-B.Westbrook up the middle to CAR 31 for 1 yard (90-J.Peppers).

2-6-PHI 30 (:56) (No Huddle, Shotgun) 5-D.McNabb left end to PHI 45 for 15 yards (90-J.Peppers).

2-5-CAR 39 (11:53) 36-B.Westbrook up the middle to CAR 39 for no gain (90-J.Peppers).

Ok...that's the 4 tackles...3 for gains 1 for no gain

Here's the sack...

1-10-PHI 46 (15:00) (Shotgun) 4-K.Kolb sacked at PHI 38 for -8 yards (90-J.Peppers). FUMBLES (90-J.Peppers), RECOVERED by CAR-92-D.Lewis at PHI 35. 92-D.Lewis to PHI 35 for no gain (71-J.Peters).

He sacks the backup Kolb and causes a fumble AFTER the game is essentially over. Did you really see McNabb pressured a whole lot when he was in?

And he did block a 51yd field goal...and this is after the fumble even. Probably had scrub ST players in the game.

Now..anyone that actually watched the part of the game that mattered...the 1st half and the beginning of the 2nd...didn't really see a lot of Peppers. I don't think he earned a million yesterday. Do you?

Heck...I'd take that dude at Chicago A. Ogunleye. He only had three tackles and 2 sacks...but if you watched that game last night...YOU KNOW he was a presence constantly and he wasn't sacking the backup QB.

Explain to me why Jake Delhomme earned $462500 yesterday, then we'll talk about Peppers.

LOL, as bad as Jake was yesterday, I'd say he earned at least a little bit of that money by taking all those hits from defenders that were never blocked. Which begs the question, who on that O-line earned their money? Hell, they almost got Mcown killed.

    • There is a Grand Canyon-sized chasm between your opinion and the opinions of most former player hockey guys who do this for a living.
    • I can only imagine the **** eating grins on the committee right now. "Oh, Bama didn't deserve it? Oh, Miami didn't deserve it? Suck it, haters!" lol
    • To say that, is gaslighting, because it isn’t true. I mean, maybe one or two people do that but it isn’t the predominant behavior. Even Frank has given him credit. I think particularly the Rams game. A couple of glowing posts.   I know I have. Gotta be honest about it because if you aren’t it undermines what else you say.  But the degree of how far I go with credit, in terms of it being a projection of future performance? Not very far. Acknowledge it, but require more of it. There is a lot of bad play to offset.    I tried to remain passive while the last 9 games (post ankle injury) played out. It is just really hard when the lows won’t go away. I failed. As high as a couple of those highs were, there isn’t enough.    I know it is premature to just say I want to move on, made my decision after 6 of those games ended up pretty much really good or not good enough, but I have had enough of being patient and letting him show the reality either way.  So in my view, he Could still validate himself to a decent degree if he smokes the last three starts. But also in my view I don’t expect to see it. Maybe one more high quality start, would be my expectation. So yes he could still somehow justify having the job next year. If that happened I still wouldn’t have much faith given the last three years and all that has transpired. Again, there is a lot of bad play to offset.
