That's how I see it...

“I am thankful for the eight seasons I have spent in the National Football League thus far and am looking forward to beginning this new phase of my career.”- Peppers

Jeez Pep couldn't you say eight seasons with the Panthers or I would like to thank all my loyal Panther fans? Nope just for 8 seasons in the NFL.

Honestly, I'm glad he is gone. He showed some great athleticism (at times), but was never worth the money we paid. He could have been worth it if he had put the total effort into his performance. I think his actions show a very immature side. He's a very lucky man to have such talent and didn't have to work hard to perform. I hope the league evaluates him as for what he has truly shown as an overall player, and not just the 'what he can do' side. Time will tell.

I usually don't wish any bad to happen to anybody so I won't start now. Still it would be sweet justice if Peppers finds out that after waiting 8 years to start his wonderful new phase of his career, he finds out his best years were with the Panthers and he failed to fully appreciate it. And that it wasn't that we held him back, simply he held himself back. He has always been a legend in his own mind.

Somehow I feel that the team will be better without him. IDK it just seems that way to me.

We didn't really do too good a job at replacing moose, witherspoon, or jenkins. I'm a little iffy on what they're going to do.

They've handled the changing of the guard at O~line well and drafted LB well.

In fact we STILL haven't replaced moose or jenkins. Davis is kind of a replacement for spoon but he bounced around so much it took forever.

    • I've been hearing all about this "winning culture" for years while watching us piss away top shelf draft position with meaningless late season wins when we're already eliminated from the playoffs but being assured this is building "winning culture" just to inevitably suck again next year. With that said, I'll always take a playoff berth. Just make the dance and you have a chance to make some noise. But spare me the "winning culture" bullshit.
    • Winning culture trumps ALL.    Here’s my way to long take:  Last season this team started out breaking the sports books and being the lead pipe lock of the week. They finished by being a tough out for both SB teams.  I don’t think they’ll pick up right where they left off, but for the first time in years they’re on the legitimate upswing. Honest to God NFL talent has been infused.  Offense is already going to be good for 2-3 more 3rd down conversions (I don’t think anyone will argue that) a game over last year so I’ll go (very optimistically) 5-6 more points better than last year’s team. ADDED: A legit backup RB and a money WR who catches everything, along with 2 promising rooks. No significant losses (sorry Miles). KEYS: Can Dave bob and weave play calling if things aren’t working? Does protection continue to hold for Bryce. Did this team pick up dudes who know how to find the end zone or will the struggle of 3rd and goal continue.  Defense. If they can force even 2 (hopefully 3) more stops a game on third down (not asking a lot, hopefully more), that’s good for -4 (optimistic) points for opposing teams.  ADDED: legit run stuffers. Legit (appearing) edge guys. LOST: Clowney. Question: With legit 3-4 talent can Evero finally show what we have been VERY patiently waiting on? To me, EVERYTHING on defense hinges on Evero. Everything. Every position group was upgraded (still not good enough, but certainly improved).  Losing Brown early and Luvu… completely and utterly devastated the run defense. Luvu put up one of the best seasons at LB this team has ever seen. His under appreciation by some fans was criminal. He alone was our 3 down stop machine. Brown was pretty much it up front. Those 2 held RBs in check long enough for safety help to arrive.  Coaching: Halftime adjustments and no prevent defense. In a nutshell, that’s pretty much it. No cutesy offense to show off WRs/Bryce when it’s not working. Use your sledgehammers, Dave.  There is finally veteran leadership and legit NFL talent. It’s going in the right direction (I couldn’t have been more wrong last offseason) to build a winning culture, but teams have to learn how to win, especially the games where nothing is going right (this team has NEVER been able to do that). They will still lose more close games than they win, and that alone is where it all hinges.     
    • With his current level of play I'm quite content to not activate his 5th year option and let him walk away for free after year 4.
