I wish Peppers was as good as Jared Allen

We won't get anything unless he's franchised again or signs a new contract with us. He's an unrestricted FA unless we do 1 of the 2.

He is not worth a new contract or another tag. And if somehow Fox and Company keep their jobs, I hope they realize that.

Incorrect. Depending on how much he gets signed too on his next contract (even now will still be quite a bit) we could get a 3rd round compensatory pick. Not much but about now to be 17 million dollars worth of depth richer I would rather have the 3rd.

Allen is a monster, he is getting pressure on Rodgers on nearly every play. Sacks don't make a great DE, consistent pressure and the ability to disrupt do.

Exactly. Panther fans have been regurgitating the first part of that statement for years now.. without realizing that Peppers is also epic fail. It's not only about sacks, no.

It's about being disruptive and making the big play when your team needs you. Peppers gets single blocked by tight ends and pads his stats against Oakland. Franchise, son!

    • I mean, he's a professional athlete.  What you think as a fan vs what he should think as a player are completely different.  Being bad doesn't mean you should lack confidence in yourself, and really that is true in all forms of life.  Do everything you want to do with confidence. Justin Fields sucks, but does he ever play like someone who doesn't believe in his own abilities?   Obviously you need more than confidence to be a high-level NFL player, and Bryce will never be that.  But he could still create 2-3 extra plays a game if he allowed himself to play more "free" like he did in the second half of last season.  The fact he refuses to use his legs to pick up yards nowadays hurts this team.  Simple things like that would go a long way for us, even if not for him.
    • I've always thought it odd that the QB is the only guy in the roster who carries a record. If a RB puts up 1200 yards but the team sucks then everyone still says the RB had a good year. If a QB puts up good numbers put the D is atrocious and the win loss record isn't great due to that then the narrative is that the QB can't win. Now that we're finding a way to win with suddenly dominant D and dominate running game people are trying to shift to this "Bryce is just a winner" narrative while he puts up bottom of the league numbers while near the top of the league in turnovers. It's just funny to watch.
