Who here has called Harris garbage? Who has called Peppers garbage?

Harris is, at best, average. Below average or simply average =/= garbage. He's a liability in coverage and has been since he arrived. However, he brings the wood and keeps everyone energized when he's laying guys out. But there's no denying that his numbers have declined over the past 3 years. His numbers should pick back up in Chicago though. Assuming Cutler keeps mistaking cornerbacks for receivers, Harris will spend plenty of time on the field.

Peppers isn't garbage. He's a top 10 defensive end. A large percentage of the fan-base had a problem with him long before he became a bear. Call it lack of heart, lack of consistency, lack of desire, whatever; he should be a better player than he is and he childishly blames the Panthers for his own failures.

Peppers will continue to be exactly what he has been.....a freak athlete that give inconsistent effort.

He will give you 3 games where he looks all-pro......5-6 games where he plays solid.....and then about 8 games where you wonder if he showed up at the stadium.

I love it how fans that just signed a player will pretend to know more about him then the team fans he has played for for the better part of a decade (and considering he was a homegrown player before that for many of our fans). None of us deny that he is an athletic freak that can absolutely dominate a game but he also can disappear for months at a time.

Whatever Bears hes your problem now. I for one am glad he is gone. Got tired of the whole team, media, fanbase being about 1 player that IMO isn't good enough to warrant that attention. I see this as this years Jay Cutler, sure he has talent but ignore the ? and see where it gets you.

      PFF ranks the 2025 starting QBs

      By Seltzer · Posted

      I personally think you are trying to talk yourself into circles here... It's ok to say Bryce played incredible the last 5 weeks... I know there are plenty of people on this board who desperately need the doom-and-gloom narrative, but I genuinely question how much NFL QB play some of these people really have watched when they still question him being the unquestioned starter for next year...  Again, that being said, no one is crowning him at all. I think Bryce is one of the best stories going into 2025 bc his season last year was so outlandishly unprecedented. It's totally fair to personally not believe in Bryce. Plenty of sports "journalists" need to write stories, and that's an easy narrative path... But I think that actual people in the know rank Bryce much higher. That's the fun thing about sports... we shall see!

      Regardless of how we got here, any rational fan should be excited by how well Bryce played down the stretch. Anyone not happy about that level of play either doesn't know what they're looking at, or they're still trying to drive tired narratives. Obviously, Cam had an all-time rookie season, and I'm not putting the two in the same basket yet, but as someone who has watched every snap of Panthers football since the start of the new millennium (Im old), Bryce was playing at a higher level at the end of 2024 than Cam was at the end of 2012 (his 2nd season). Cam continued to develop into MVP form, something Bryce has to prove, but as someone who watched both (and will stan for Cam always), Bryce was playing at a higher level to end year 2 than Cam did.  Go watch the film if you dont believe me. None of that means anything for the future. But the people who said BY9 couldnt play in this league are wrong.   That being said, the only thing that matters is this year. #20 is perfectly fair IMO going into the season. I mean think about it, how would you rank him??!  His in-season turnaround is one of the wildest things I've ever seen... how do you rank a guy who looked like a massive bust in September and by January was consistently playing at a top 10 level? My excitement level is pretty damn high heading into this season. There were throws from the Chiefs game onward where Bryce had Drew Brees levels of anticipation. Im excited to see what he can do with a full deck on offense, something we really never gave Cam. Really hope and expect Bryce to move up this list this season.

      Not really, the only QB's (other than Anthony Richardson) ranked below him are new to their teams as a placeholder starter or drafted in 2024 or 2025, not a lot of gymnastics to get there. It's not about how many that is, if it's 20, 12, or 2... It means there isn't a QB who's team has committed to them for the long term right now that they have ranked below Bryce. That's not a great thing.
