Win or lose, will Pep be back next year?

The man still has the motor and seems to have the desire to keep playing. Has he lost a step? Sure we all do with age.....still better then many guys ten years younger. What's the take on 2018....will he be back and should he be back? New ownership coming and hopefully a GM also...will they see it the same way?

Before the year I would have said this may be his last.  Looking at his performance this year and how they have essentially allowed him to practice and play when he wants, I could see him coming back in order to take 3rd on the sack list, if nothing else

I think he will...6 more sacks and he passes Kevin Greene all-time on the sacks list. But if we know Pep like we do he probably doesn't put much stock in such things.  But it would be cool to see him in the Top 3 All-Time!

I think he'll come back just to add a few more sacks to his number and, to echo what SOJA said, he does seem to be having fun this season.

BTW, mention this to some of your non-Carolina Panther fan friends....

3 of the top 5, and 4 of the top 11 NFL all-time sack leaders wore Carolina Panther uniforms: Reggie White, Kevin Greene, Julius Peppers and Jared Allen.

    • why rig the scenario with the "as a passer" tag.   I mean, I assume you do that because Bryce needs help in the argument.  If we are just talking players and no contacts?   I mean, give me Young over Russell Wilson.   That's it.   I'd put him on par w/ Penix, Fields, and Rattler,  so that's a wash.  Give me everyone else over Bryce.  And I'm not handicapping the other players as passing only because when you start doing that it's really meaningless.   
    • McCarthy to date, for sure. That's a very early sample size, however. Russell Wilson is a backup. Not sure Wilson wouldn't be better suited to our offense specifically, but at the bare minimum it's basically a wash. Hurts I would generally disagree with. I do think Hurts is likely to be less than stellar in our offense. Justin Fields - Agree. Fields is a significant threat on the ground but he sees the field as badly or worse than Bryce. And that's with significantly more reps. Spencer Rattler - I honestly thought this would be an easier call that it is. TBH, right now Rattler looks a lot better. Really almost across the board. Kyler - Murray is better. Basically across the board. Not significantly better, mind you. Trevor Lawrence is more debatable than it seems. Low completion percentages, tons of TO's.....he really has been quite bad this year in Jax. He is considerably more talented than Bryce but the results have been marginally better. Tua - Tua is a little more dynamic of a player but he is a TO machine. Tend to agree. Caleb Williams. Not sure on this. Williams is still struggling to be consistent but his upper end is WAY higher than Bryce. He shows it fairlu frequently, as well. Probably would rather be working through Caleb's issues than Bryce. Penix - 100%. This guy stinks. Cam Ward. This is a little tough. Again, far higher ceiling on Ward and he shows flashes but it's been a mess there in Tenn. Probably lean towards Bryce here.
    • he doesn't have the arm to make all the throws, the premier QBs make.  That's a fact.   So there are plays that won't exist for him that will for others.    To act like every QB in the NFL can make all the same throws isn't a stance anyone actually takes.....yet folks are doing it for Bryce.
