ooooh, so the fact that he IS playing now means all the trash talk was warranted...got it.

....OR it could mean one still cant own up and say one was wrong!

Ain't wrong yet dumbass. 2 weeks does not warrant pro bowl status. Hopefully you'll be able to bump this thread for the next 6 weeks and then you'll have a leg to stand on.

If Jake Delhomme plays an amazing game next week, do you think all of the posters should apologize for calling him out and "hating"?

Of course not.

Would we be very grateful if he did?

Of course we would.

Likewise, most people here aren't hating on Peppers. We know what he's capable of and want him to play at a high level. It seems he found fault in his own game and responded.

I love Pep. Always have, and always will. Just glad to see him doing his thing. And Glad that we have a DC that can coach to Pep's strengths and potential.

IMHO, people need to STFU and let Pep and the defense progress into the powerhouse that will light up the opposition for several years to come.

Havent heard from you fair weathered fans in a few weeks.

Oh...especially to the LOSER who asked people to WATCH him every play...what do you say now? Tard.

I say keep watching. I would love to eat crow every week.

But before you go crowning me a loser after the fact, how about you convince me that the Peppers that played today was the same as the rest of the year. Peppers was the polar opposite of complacent this week. If he puts that effort into every game, then you will see a monster year from him (even if it is half a year).

I'll admit, I haven't been a real big Peppers for fan fora long time now. But for the last month or so. The effort has been up and so has the production. If that continues and we can continue to get pressure with just our front 4. We got a shot to do some things.

    • Nothing wrong with starting to look for bodies early. It's a long injury filled season. I doubt we get through unscathed. 
    • We're in alignment regarding Thielen not being a game changer/breaker for the Panthers. Getting the ball into hands of playmakers like TMac and XL is going to open up things more than it is getting it to Thielen underneath (or letting him go after 50/50 balls 20yds downfield in his mid-30s). However, in a room where the other guys are two second year guys and two rookies, having a reliable vet that they can learn from is just as important as it is for the QB to have as a reliable third option. I can see that being worth $8.5M (just 3%) of the $279.2M cap... especially when looking at what's left out there: https://www.spotrac.com/nfl/free-agents/_/position/wr However, the idea that the team is forcing production to Thielen and leading to losses isn't supported by the data. Targets, not receiving yards, are how you can tell if a player is being "force fed." In the two games mentioned, let's look at the other players available... vs. TB 10 targets - Adam Thielen 9 targets - David Moore 8 targets - Tommy Tremble, Xavier Legette 3 targets - Jonathon Brooks 1 target - Dan Chisena, Feleipe Franks, Stephen Sullivan vs. PHI 11 targets - Adam Thielen 8 targets - Xavier Legette 5 targets - Chuba Hubbard, David Moore 2 targets - Tommy Tremble 1 target - Ja'Tavion Sanders, Deven Thompkins There isn't exactly a bounty of other names to throw the ball to. In those games, AT was one of the top 2 WRs. Diontae had been gone by that point.   So... yea. Agreed that Thielen isn't exactly carrying the team in his mid-30s, but it's undeniable that he was the most reliable target last season that still has quite a bit of value this season. Whether or not that value is reflected in a manner folks think on the contract is going to come down to personal taste. However, the idea that the team was forcing production to AT and that was the reason behind some losses couldn't be further from the truth.
    • I would also add that I think it's more than money.  AT has looked absolutely miserable out there at times, and there was a lot of speculation he would demand to be traded.  Personally, I thought he was a lock to be moved last year.  Maybe his hamstring is the only thing that prevents that from happening. The fact that he's not only willing to come back and play, but excited about it, really bodes well for Bryce.  AT is a veteran and he knows the game.  If he didn't have confidence in Bryce, I guarantee you he wouldn't be in a Panther uniform this year.  I'll take that as a positive.
