Peppers Humble Beginnings

Article from the Chicago Sun-Times

I saw another article where Peppers said he didn't want to be a leader or vocal in Carolina, but wants to do that in CHI. Will post when I find the link. I hate everything about this guy more and more everyday, and am venturing into full on bitter-hater mode, complete with injury wishes and all.

But he also has been dogged by a range of criticism — that he doesn’t always play hard and that he hasn’t been productive enough — throughout his career.

Surprisingly, he doesn’t disagree.

‘‘I feel the same way, actually,’’ he said. ‘‘I feel I haven’t given everything I have to give yet, and I can do more.

fug you Pep, lazy asshole

yeah some of you guys seem bitter. Pep gave us some great years. Let's show some class and not bad mouth him now that he has moved on. Seriously, i hated watching Jake this year but i wish him luck. It was time for us to move on also. Did you really want to see all that salary tied up in one player. Him leaving allows us to resign Marshall and Davis. PLUS give an extension to D-Will.

I am not hating on Pep. But some of the stuff he is saying is ...lets say questionable about the amount of effort he put forth. Saying now he wants to be a leader and how he wants to give everything he's got leads you to question really how much effort he put forth. But even at 63% he was the best DE we have ever had.

f**k you Pep, lazy asshole

What a f^^khead. How infuriating. I hate that Hurney wasted our damn Franchise tag on a guy so apathetic last year.... then pay'ed him 1mil a game to mope around like a beeotch until Beason came down on him.

They should have sent him packing last year damnit. Hell, we drafted Brown... he might not be as atheltic as Peppers, but his heart would HAVE to be more into playing than this, which would have been enough to at least equal the crap Peppers gave us last year.

Just another Hurney f-up I guess.

Peppers was great while he was in Carolina, besides that one 3 or 4 sack season. But he is a talented player who helped us win games.

Of course we all would like to have the most dominate pass rusher in the NFL, but we don't now. He will be the same person, play really hard in a few games and take the other 10 games off ;)

All I know is we still are going to whoop-ass when Chicago comes to town this year! :)

    • That's my biggest concern with making him the 2C.  You split up the Aho Jarvis bromance that accounted for a lot of points.  If Jarvis excels as a C, it could help the team even more though.
    • The Saints being that high is the one that killed me. Chris Olave might not know his name at this point, Shaheed is coming off injury as well, so 31 year old Brandin Cooks might be your best WR...coming off a 260 yard season over 10 games. Kamara is Kamara, but didn't have 1,000 yards last year and is about to turn 30.  Toss in the fact that Taysom Hill may be the best QB on the team and I truly don't understand Barnwell's thoughts beside seeing the names "Olave" and "Kamara" and going yep, that sounds better than "Chuba" and "Thielen". 
    • Now now now, I wouldn't say there is no logic, but there's just not a lot of in-depth thought put into Barnwell's  "analysis." Now to be fair to him (and other national writers), pre-season team rankings are basically clickbait. And...Barnwell, himself, said that "there's a lot of projection here." He basically admits that he doesn't know how the hell things are going to turn out with our receiver group. He also said that "I find myself" more intrigued by Coker than Legette; that does not mean that he said that fans should be, or that Coker will even be better than Legette (regardless of ESPN's per-route-run stat). So, yeah, Barnwell said some things, but even he has to basically admit that he doesn't know how bad or good that our playmakers will be in 2025.  Overall, what Barnwell is basically thinking is that the Panthers have gotten worse at the offensive skill positions, and baked into that is that others have gotten better. That's the argument in July (meaning, please don't give this any more weight than it's due). I would personally be surprised (not shocked) if we end up worse than the Titans, Pats and Giants at least. Once you throw in the Bills, Giants, Jets, Steelers, and even the Chargers, I personally think there are several teams' skill groups that may end up ranked lower than ours by the end of 2025.  @kungfoodudeis one of my dudes, but like others he is over the tipping point. He's had enough. Seeing is believing. I will say this though: Barnwell's piece is less about logic than just good ol' opinion. And to be honest, he might as well be a Huddler throwing out sh¡t in the summer based upon nothing but good feels or bad feels.  Our offense as a whole (just like any other team's) is going to depend upon the play of the O-line and especially the QB. How you can even rank the skill positions without expressly baking those two things in the cake is beyond me. I would dare say that that's not even logical.
