A Peppers question

Sorry for another Peppers thread.........but......

Just read the nice post/thread by the Bears fan. Got me to thinking about Peppers again. And then thinking about him and the Bears...that brings up Cutler, brings up INT's brings up Jake.

That got me to wonder....does Pep disappear when the offense sucks (such as the Arizona playoff debacle?)

Seemed like Pep was a beast when Moore was playing QB last year. So, does good offense get you good Peppers' effort? Does he lose interest if the O is not producing?

Is there a correlation here over time?

He was probably pumped once we had a QB that quit shoving the defense out on the field. I remember him running out to high five Moore I think during the giants or vikings game.

But I also think peppers started playing well at the end of the year to get potential employer's potential.

If he had started that earlier....he might have broken some records....meaning $$$$$$. Most playing for contract this year guys start sooner.

I think like all players, the more you play the more tired you would get. So ya I think the less he played the more he could put out on the field.

The whole disappearing argument is stupid cause no one can dominate everyone every play in a game.

He will always be a panther in my eyes and I hope he retires as one.

pep ran down the field when somebody broke a long td and started to show emotion after the helm was turned over to matt.so i think you might be on to something.i would have rather he stayed but, the owner didnt.remember you dont let valuable players walk away from your team.

he was insanely expensive though. I'd rather pay the guys who want to retire here like TD.

We wouldn't be getting our money's worth anyway, him staying would make him sad and then he would never give 100%.

Pep showed up the 2nd half of last season because he needed to show he could still play and put up #'s. Just like he did towards the end of the season prior.

Sadly I think the Bears will get Peppers we saw his first three years here. The bears will get that Pep for maybe one or two season and that will be it.

Yes, he shut down when the Panthers got down. Will he do that with the Bears? I guess if it happens week after week, he will be at the bank by November. Who knows with Cutler, he doesn't have Tommy Jone to blame for peaks sake!

I'm fully prepared for Peppers to have a big year, he's going to feel the need to prove himself for the first time in a long time.

My guess is that he will start off big, but the rest of the year depends on the offense. If Cutler is Cutler again.......

      Adam Schefter: Panthers getting trade calls for Andy Dalton

      By frankw · Posted

      Andy Dalton is a nice guy... But we aren't running a charity here. It's about damn time! Here's a VERY fun thread to revisit.

      LAST MINUTE: Panthers teasing something later today

      By BrewerHouseBeer · Posted

      I really enjoyed it. Well put together recap of the season that showed the emotion of the ups and downs this season. Brought back a lot of painful and joyful memories. This was a strange season to say the least. I threw in the towel at least 2 maybe 3 times this year. Yet I was still relatively proud of the team and the fans by season ending. Hoping we can continue to build on this!

      Trade deadline thread

      By Anybodyhome · Posted

      To be honest, I didn't read or hear of any decent goalies who may have been available. Sure, there was an article suggesting Florida may offer Bob, but look what happened- they're actually talking about a new contract for the UFA net-minder.  On the other hand, here's how someone else categorized the crickets chirping from the Canes: https://www.thescore.com/nhl/news/3481704/winners-and-losers-from-2026-nhl-trade-deadline The Hurricanes were in excellent position to make a splash but did nothing other than add some toughness to their fourth line in Nicolas Deslauriers. That's awfully disappointing for the Eastern Conference club, which entered the deadline with four first-round picks over the next three years, a strong farm system, and more cap space than any other contender. While Carolina doesn't have any glaring holes, upgrading the second-line center spot should've been a priority. Can it win a Cup with 5-foot-8 sophomore Logan Stankoven in that role? He's likely better suited to play wing. Adding a goalie would've helped, too, given Brandon Bussi's inexperience and Frederik Andersen's struggles. A depth defenseman wouldn't have hurt either. The Hurricanes have a pretty straightforward path to another Eastern Conference Final, considering how weak the rest of the Metropolitan Division is. But nobody should be surprised if they're once again outmatched by whoever emerges from the superior Atlantic Division, in part because of the inaction by GM Eric Tulsky. --------------------------------------- Exactly what a few of the astute regulars on this board have hypothesized, I might add. And if a handful of fans can see this.... well....
