Peppers inspired again?

Ever since Matt Moore has taken the helms, it seems that Peppers has been playing a little more inspired.

Last week against the Giants, after Moore made the TD throw to Moose, Pep met Moore halfway and gave him props, slapped hands, hugged him, and all that good poo. Now, I was just watching the highlights from today's game, and at the 20 second mark, Peppers appears running down the sideline cheering on Jonathan Stewart's 67 yard TD run. http://www.nfl.com/videos/carolina-panthers/09000d5d81575932/NFL-Scoreboard-Saints-vs-Panthers-higlights On the sidelines, he looks like he is enjoying himself and smiling again. I haven't noticed him act like this all season.

With that being said, do you think the recent turnaround with Matt Moore at QB, paired with the way the defense has been playing under Meeks, has done enough to inspire Pep to sign a long term deal with us? I hope so, but it remains to be seen.

apparently Beason thinks its a good possibility

Peppers split quickly, but teammates sounded more optimistic than ever that they can lure him back. The Panthers now have a window to negotiate a long-term contract, or they have the option to use the franchise tag again

“It’s just a matter of the contract now,” linebacker Jon Beason said.

Jake not starting next year. Thats a fact. Fox isn't that dumb to start Jake on a short leash. He would get fired quickly

Thats if he decide to be back and work under a short leash. If he dont, that possibility with Jake is absolutely out the window

Its gotta suck as a defensive player playing your ass off, getting the ball back, then the QB just giving it away again several times a game. There may be something to it.

If somehow he knew for sure that Moore would be the starter next season, I really believe he would sign a new contract, gladly. But with the possibility of Jake starting next year. Who knows what he will do?

This and this. Hopefully, Julius is back next year and Jake is gone.

Damn, wish he would have realized Moore was the starting QB in the New England game.

      Can we get to 9-8?

      By Mike2.0 · Posted

      A winning record would be nice, but I still have us winning around the 6 to 8 game mark. Realistically we should beat the Jets and Saints, that gets us to 5 wins. After that, we have to face a lot of potential play off teams and our divisional opponents. I think we’ll win 1 or 2 of those games to take us to 6 or 7 wins, perhaps 8 wins if we can spring a further surprise.  Is that enough progress for head coach and QB? I’m not sure, it will depend on performances and output. That said, it’s nice to be back in a position where we are thinking about the play offs.

      Eight of Bryce Young's nine wins have come off game-winning drives

      By Mike2.0 · Posted

      I would tend to agree about not falling into the trap and paying a below average QB, but sometimes situations can “force” a team to pay that QB. For example, if we play ourselves into a 9-8 like record, then what options will we have in the draft? Or do we avoid the draft and trade for or sign someone in free agency?  I’m not convinced by the 2026 QB draft class. There’s some intriguing prospects but no one that really screams “draft me”. I’m not sure we’ve got anyone really that stands out as a trade candidate or free agent signing. So although we might not want to commit a big money contract to Young, him playing well and showing progress might force the team’s hand.

      Trade Chuba?

      By Mike2.0 · Posted

      Realistically we would be looking at no more than a mid round pick for Dowdle or Chuba. Are we really that desperate for a mid round pick? Not really. I would much prefer us utilise the two RBs in a 1-2 punch similar to how we used D-Will and Stewart. After all, Bryce is not Drew Brees. He won’t throw for 300+ yards and carry the team consistently as a passer. So having a strong running game with a 1-2 punch will be beneficial to him, and it will also be beneficial to the RBs because we can spell them and not overwork them.
