Thanks For The Memories Julius Peppers

For the past 9 years, Peppers has been my favorite player on the Carolina Panthers. From his first season, he has dominated for our team, and for that I'd like to say thank you. A few years back when Carolina played the 49ers in SF, I went to the game in a Peppers jersey. After the game, several Panthers people signed a football I brought with me. Ricky Proehl, Muhsin Muhammed, Brentson "Boogie" Buckner, Kris Jenkins, John Fox, hell even Mark Richardson signed it. The one I was bummed about not getting was JP. As the team bus pulled away, I saw Pep behind the tinted windows because his seat light was on. I pointed at the 90 on my chest and gave a thumbs up (kinda lame I know), and Julius Peppers got up and stopped the team bus and came out and signed my ball, jersey, and took a couple pics with me and my lady. I was ecstatic.

So for all the stuff I hear about being a quiet recluse, just wanted to post a good memory about Julius Peppers from a fan stanpoint.

That being said, don't let the door hit you in the ass on the way out. I'm a Panthers fan first.

Step it up Everette Brown, I'll be buying your jersey the minute they sell it as a tackle twill.

Sorry guys, had to make one last thread on this guy before I'm done with him. No homo. :)

The part I will remember of Peppers is that he never "reached his potential". We as a fan base saw a player who in his first three four seasons better than the player we have seen the last four. Whether he was held back, coaching, etc, whatever ----- the player Peppers could have been never materialized. I for sure do not want to see that accur somewhere else. Peppers does have the right to want a change of scenery. I am just dissappointed Fox/Hurney didnt see this when he didnt sign the long term deal after '07. We are all entitled to make mistakes.

Well said.

Thanks Jules. Now you're the enemy. Prepare to be destroyed.

I thought id be pissed at peppers for leaving, but its more bittersweet like he said in the charlotte observer interview. We move on as a fanbase of the Panthers organization and this reminds us that no one is bigger than the organization. It was fun Pep. I just want him to be remembered for his years in Carolina not somewhere else.

      PFF ranks the 2025 starting QBs

      100%. And these same people will claim you have an agenda. You can't have it every way. We had the lowest rated defense in the league last year. Statistically the worst ever. By PFF grades (for whatever that's worth- but they are readily accepted, used, and conveyed by most "reputable" sources), the defense was the worst ever. Not only that, PFF rated our receiving corp the worst in football last season. The absolute worst... out of 32 teams. Which is why regardless of the lip service Canales and Morgan paid to the current guys, they knew it would be criminal not to give Bryce more help. People fixating on team stats and not taking these things into context are stupid, plain and simple, and I'm for one thankful they're not running this team (or probably anything for that matter bc they obviously can't discern reality. Again, going back to the eyeball test these Narrative Nancies seem to hate so much, did they not see the windows Bryce was putting balls into? Have the generally not watched much NFL? Please, please show me the film where all these NFL QBs are making throws like this to this point Bryce was "below average" down the stretch compared to them. Bryce made more wow throws in that 3 game stretch of the Bucs, Chiefs, and Eagles than every other QB combined in all the years since since Cam got hurt I genuinely am baffled by people that can watch throws like that and act like it's nothing. I guarantee you Steve Spagnola, Todd Bowles, and and Vic Fangio didn't think it was nothing after watching the little guy torch them with players those teams would be embarrassed to trot out at the skill position players. The national media spent all year making excuses for Mahomes not having elite weapons when he had multiple 1st & 2nd round talents at the skill positions along with future HoFers in Kelce and Hopkins. Bryce wasn't throwing for 300 yards every week with David Moore and Adam Theilen in spite of jaw dropping throws and you want to say the guy played below average. For those people, again, we ain't watching the same sport. And the name calling doesn't change that... The vitriol and projection... it's off the effing charts with these people.

      "Well you see if you remove this terrible game that terrible game this other terrible game and then focus on these games you'll see he's actually one of the better QB's in the league and he's actually as good as Jayden Daniels". My god this place is delusional. I love it.
