Peppers' history of success vs. Dallas

Yea I remember that 05 game where he sacked that statue Bledsoe 3 times. ...but the defense also gave up something like 200 rushing yards.

Yea its hurting me to see Pep run right by the RB on rush plays. I noticed a few plays Sunday they ran off tackle, Pep was rushing the QB off get go cuz he would try to go around the T on the outside so he basically shielded himself off.

Actually, on most of the running plays the Falcons ran to the opposite side of Peppers.

Pat Kirwan, on Sirius, basically said that it's pretty much impossible right now for the Panthers to get their defensive playbook going due to the "hole in the middle" as he described it.

I think the defense is still trying to adjust to the new schemes, calls, etc. I think that Peppers is confused at times and the fact that the defensive tackles are on roller skates or golf carts does not help. Double team Peppers, run up the middle. Poof. Five yards. It's not complicated.

So...barring turnovers, most teams we play are going to score a touchdown per quarter on average this season, irrespective of time of possession. So...the offense is going to have to score upwards of 30 points each game if we're going to win. AND special teams are going to have to be pretty much perfect.

The reality of this season. It's difficult to blame the coaches for the injuries. If we can get a playoff sniff this season, it will be amazing.

    • Same. I would prefer a MNF game earlier in the season. As if more likely has some significance in case things go south this season. If we perform well enough we could even get another game forced to a Sunday night spot later in the season. 
    • Wanted to jump into this thread. Although I do not post anymore I do look in as there are a few old friends around. Loved hearing some of the names you mentioned.  Another  oldie is NanceUSMC.  He is the one who got me here from the old Observer forum.  Good guy and smart football guy. I have learned a lot from a lot of good Huddlers over the years, Over time. we have sadly lost a few who left this earth too soon.  Anyone who know of someone, it would be nice to try to make a list.  One of the more recent, CosmoGirl,  was someone that kind of hit hard.  Life sucks sometimes. Some of the best times were when we had our own tailgate and could meet up in person.  I think it made us better. Several dedicated volunteers, lead by LiverMush, started setting things up in the wee hours of each gameday morning.  Don't know all those regulars but I remember JakeFlake was one.  For you newbies...each game,  a Huddler (or a group) sponsored the food for each tailgate.  Eating was free but a donation was asked for.  At the end of the year those donations were used to buy bicycles for Toys for Tots.  Over the years Huddlers bought a lot of new bikes for kids for Christmas.  (I am guessing a couple of hundred each year.)  We had a good time getting together, got to make friends in person, and then got to feel like you were doing something good. It was truly a community. I got to meet Dan Morgan at one of our tailgates...he brought pizza from his restaurant.  How many of you remember that?  Glad the restaurant did not make it....lol. Not only have people changed, and come and gone.....but the entire nature and purpose has changed. Nothing lasts forever and we move on but we still like to think about good times. Same reason we take pictures. Want to ask a question I have not seen anyone else mention......who remembers    "The Couch" ?  We have argued, laughed, lived the ups and downs of football and dealt with a little real life along the way.  A thanks to  the Mods who keep this going.  I am sure they sacrifice a lot of their time out of love for the forum and the Panthers. Take care my friends and be well.  I will close with my new favorite quote which I think is greatly needed in these difficult times.        
    • My top-5 JAGS: 1. Tommy Tremble: May not ever be top-tier, but has been solid and you never doubt the effort. 2. Cade Mays: Not bad for a 6th rounder. Hated to see him go. 3. Brady Christensen: One of the most versatile backup OLs in the NFL. Hopefully we re-sign him. 4. Trevis Gipson: Quietly was really solid depth last season. Glad we brought him back. 5. Brycen Tremayne: Has been solid depth at WR, flashing at times last year.
