Peppers was warmly received by the home crowd Sunday, but said that he didn't think much about it.

"I really didn’t care, really," Peppers said. "The only people who I care about who receive me well are these guys in this locker room, my coaches, my family and friends.”

Pep should be jaded towards the fans. If he underperforms he is ripped by the fans but if he plays well then it's just 'well he's supposed to'. People think because he's a freak of an athlete that his stats should be freakishly high but that's just not how it works.

that is how it is suppose to be. you think Jake is suppose to care what the fans think? this is a job for these guys, they have to worry about teammates and playing......if they get right what they are suppose to care about.....the fanbase will ultimately be happy.

agreed...

He had an outstanding game on Sunday and still I've seen people post stupid poo like, "he got it in garbage time"... that fool was running all around the field making plays at the beginning of the game and throughout...

Hell, I don't/wouldn't care what half of you think either, cause a lot of people here have problems putting things in perspective.. that or just like to make dumbass comments without putting any thought into their opinion.

and when you hear, "got it in garbage time"... that's the ONLY way it can be taken.

This is so wrong on so many levels.

Fans, are 'customers'. They are customers of the product Jerry Richardson puts on the field.

'Customers' buy tickets, buy jerseys, buy concessions. Tickets bought assure no blackouts in the local region. Customers bring their families to games and ensure the lifeline of continuing ticket sales.

If I made a statement, to my company that I didn't care about my 'customers'. I assure you, I'd be out in 5 seconds.

Julius should learn to simply keep his mouth shut. If he must speak, then represent his 'company' well, and at least attempt to say the right thing to those people who buy tickets that along with TV and concessions pay his bloody, over-rated salary.

Rant done.

Honestly, no player should be concerned about whether or not the fans will be acceptive or not. Fans prove time and time again to overreact to things.

Peppers and any players concerns should be the ones he mentioned...friends, family, teammates, coaches, and owner.

Fans will either get over it, and accept him, or continue to be immature, and begrate him at every chance.

      Bryce Young 5th year option exercised

      By strato · Posted

      Yeah okay. We as an organization have been more patient with him than many. And there has been a small parade of guys drafted since he was, also to bad teams, that have passed him. Some have lapped him. As a fan I am out of patience but he gets this year it is out of my hands always has been. I just hope the bar is higher than it has been for him.    FWIW, XL dropped two passes last year. He did do some other bad stuff, just saying.

      Except it takes those QB's a few years to develop because they needed to learn the mental side of the game and have it catch up to their physical attributes. Bryce was supposed to be a QB savant who already had a fully developed mental side of the game and that was going to make up for his lack of physical ability.  And his lack of NFL level QB physical traits has been clear as day to anyone who has watched him the last 3 years, mainly, he just doesn't have an NFL arm, he can't zip the ball into tight spaces or throw on a line down the field like is needed at this level.

      Don’t recall seeing many of his interviews but what strikes me is that he engages and goes in depth. Even with the cliche answers as referenced by OP come across somewhat thoughtful.  Very likable personality despite being someone who can crush an average person like I can crush a paper cup. I knew Motons mother had a career at MSU but was looking on the google and found that Mushin Muhammad personally knew Motons grandfather.   His late grandfather was a professor at MSU.   Cool guy.  Interesting family and small world.
