Peppers inspired again?

Recommended Posts

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.

    • Yep - honestly though, I thought his coverage was as good as you could possibly do on a man coverage crossing route with Dak having all day to throw. Dak made a perfect throw and if it wasn't in front of Pickens, it could have easily been picked off. Seemed like we ran more man than I have seen our defense run so far this year. Defense also did a great job of playing their gap/zone responsibilities (even if Dak did pick apart our zone a good chunk of the game) - that screen play on the last drive could easily have gone for a touchdown if Moehrig didn't play his zone and make a great tackle. Biggest complaint about Evero was not blitzing a few more times (especially when Dallas was in the red zone). The few times we did it, Dak didn't look comfortable.
    • There was some pretty egregious missed calls vs the Chiefs in the Lions game, especially Kelce. The completion where he clearly used the ground to catch the ball. The hold in front of the ref as Pacheco ran by where the defender was trying to turn around and couldnt because Kelce had him by the jersey. Mahomes openly taunting after scoring a TD. 0 penalties after double digit the week before. Cmon. 
    • People get trade happy and look at resources as barter items. They fail to see them as resources to be used to our benefit rather than someone else's. Right now, Chuba and Rico are massive benefits to us and a strong rushing attack so greatly benefits any passer, much less a young one like Bryce still is.  And the better our running game, the more our offense can eat up the clock, the less time our defense is on the field. And that is priceless, too. Don't mess with the running game. Don't mess with the receivers. Maybe look at our O-line and think we may have hit on something good during these injuries. Look at our D-line and seem some strength evolving there. Our secondary has its good spots and some that are still developing. Our linebacking corps did well this last outing. Our special teams are on a major upswing as of this past week. Heck, even our QB is showing us a little something right now that we can build on. Perhaps putting out a yard sale sign right now might be less advantageous than looking at the team and saying, "You are all part of something good that is happening. We want to see that continue to grow."
