Peppers having the time of his life

There are many things I notice when I photograph the Panthers on game day. While the action produces images that excite fans, I like to chase the moments.

This is my fifth season with the Panthers and while the roster changes from season to season, I've become quite familiar with many of the players’ habits and tendencies, mostly by observing them through my lens.

A new addition to this season’s roster, to the delight of many fans, was defensive end Julius Peppersicon-article-link.gif. I was told he was “freakishly” big, kept mostly to himself and regularly avoided the media. All that made me assume it would be difficult to capture good moments outside of action shots. Never assume.

Very good stuff.  A few years ago would have never imagined Pep back with this team. Seems like the time is right.  Plus...he has changed, or grown...whatever.  He seems different in a good way.  He has a peace about him he did not have before.

Glad he is back.  Welcome home Pep.

When a once in a generation technician of violence is at peace, strange things happen, wonderful things if you are on the right side of him.

I could not be happier at this point.

I hope he has a couple of years left.  I know he is up there in age but he is such a fine tuned athlete I don't see why he couldn't go another year or two more.  Especially if we can bring home a Lombardi Trophy while he is playing.  His HOF credentials are more than enough to get him in.  With a Lombardi Trophy he would be unanimous.

    • Basically agree.  He is the one of that bunch that offers upgraded pass catching along with he is supposed to be kind of special.   Then you have the OL and the ideas that if they perform you can have JAG backs and still do well. So okay we could be fine.  But Brooks is important and to me that receiving element sets him apart.  So there sure is something riding on him.     What strikes me as incongruent is people over in Atlanta or those that follow them look at Penix with a third surgery and act like it is no big deal.      And we are on pins and needles over Brooks.  Either they should worry a lot more or we should worry a lot less.  
    • I usually go a game or two optimist over the consensus here but this is too early for me to say. I need to see some players on the field.  I am not feeling real optimistic though.  
    • Okay as a ‘take CJ’ fan I actually don’t obsess over CJ and Houston, contrary to the narrative.  But I thought I picked up some noise that his OL left a lot to be desired.    Not a single Beyce supporter would judge him harshly if he had a crappy OL. We all know that.    So be fair about it.  A QB needs to be protected.  Especially a guy that gets to his spot and wants to finish the play from there. Which CJ is.
