Don't call it a farewell tour for Pep

[CarolinaJami']

The interview on the radio this morning was awesome! I think Peppers has a huge year, 10-12 sacks. I don't care if it sounds ridiculous, I'm gonna keep believing it.

I remember all of the board crying and whining when peppers left.  I defended his move as all he ever saw was nc. Looks like it did him some good.

Dare I get excited now? 

Some of my feels has been tickled with this.

Dude signed my French Blue Jordan Retro 12s at TC back in '08.. never stopped being a fan.

Gettles best signing since being here.

this would be a hell of a year for all of our good players to have HOF type seasons at the same time

[Moorgan]

He was our big rookie during my first full year as a fan. I was deployed when he left so I missed out on a lot of the emotions that went with it...good and bad...so I never really had a salty opinion of him leaving. But him coming back and seemingly matured and excited? I love it.

Wow! What a great interview by Pep.  Solidifies it for me that it's great to have him back.  Our Defense is gonna be sick!  I'm pumped.  My two jerseys this year will be TD and Pep for sure.

Pep honestly had a great cast of characters around him in Chicago, and it obviously turned out well doing what he did. I'm glad to see him back in black and blue though. I think he'll bring what Jared Allen and Peanut brought in 2015.

Maybe this time he will hang around at training camp and give autographs. He avoided that also the first time here. Or maybe it was just me.....

What really concerns me are expectations. Let's be real it's been 7 years since we have watched Pep play on a regular basis. I still have vivid memories of crazy athletic interceptions, strip sacks and just amazing plays that nobody else could possibly make. 

But the problem is that we have a different team now and we will be seeing a 37 yr old Pep. 

What I am hoping for is:

1. Some impact plays at key moments

2. Maybe 6-8 sacks would be tremendous

3. Fans not to call him lazy when we can't be the Pep that he was 7 yrs ago

37 is the new 27.
