Peppers

Just as I have suspected... I think Pep was hoping for us to go all the way this year, and if we did, he'd give us a chance. We didn't and now he's looking to go to a consistent winner or big market. The article doesn't say that, but that's what I've always felt. I'm just ready to see what we can get out of the picks for him because if he wanted to stay he would've already made that clear. Dickhead...

Julius Peppers;

On head coach John Fox's message to the team after the game: It's been a great season. Again, we would have liked to have gone further and accomplished more goals, but it didn't happen. Next year you've just got to see if you can get some of those things corrected and win the ultimate goal.

On if there need to be fundamental changes to the team: No. This is the right team. This is a great bunch of guys. There's a lot of talent in here. Young guys, old guys. The right people in the locker room. Today it was just a bad day. If we play that team tomorrow or we had played them yesterday it may have been a different outcome, but today they were the better team.

Is Peppers worth $100 million.

If we can get picks for him, let him go. He's going to be 30. Is he a force, sure, when he wants to be.

We need draft picks and cap room.

Sometimes, i wish the Panthers would follow the Patriots, when a 'star' hits 30, send him on his way. Let some other team deal with the cap hit.

BINGO. The Pats, Eagles and Steelers are the best at that.

Funny how they are always good.

      The problem with these summary stats and rankings is that they flatten out progression and assume an even performance throughout the year. His first 3 or 4 games of the season don't really tell you anything about his current level of capacity but more about where he started and what his floor was last year. Given his last several games were against playoff teams, that gives you an idea of his current ability coming into the season. But it will serve more as a floor than a ceiling given the upgrade in talent on offense. And a better defense should give us more stops which results in shorter fields and more opportunities. And going into his third year there is no reason to suspect he will regress. His success wasn't  based on being superhuman but being smart and taking what was the defense was giving him. Distributing to the other guys not trying to do it on his own. He was great at the end when pressured and consistently moved the ball. That makes him a great game manager which is what we need. Something that is easier to do and relies on everyone else rather than having to be a top physical specimen or do it on his own. No one can predict the future but to say we haven't improved much is crazy given just having the Browns anchoring the defensive line will shut down the run and make sure QBs won't be stepping up in the pocket.  Assuming Evero got the message to can the prevent defense and bend until you break philosophy.

      If the Canes don't bring back Tyson Jost or Jack Roslovic, is Tanner Jeannot an option? https://www.prohockeyrumors.com/2025/06/senators-expected-to-show-interest-in-tanner-jeannot.html
