the comments by Pep and i'm surprised that a lot of you are angry and want him gone.. from what everyone was saying, i expected his comments to be very abrasive.. but he couldn't have been more 'on the fence'..

im still confident that we will either come out with him resigned or come away with a good deal.. no way we let him walk or anything.. we shud come out the other end smelling like roses..

being a NC homer, i hope Pep stays.. i have given it a lot of thought and cooled of as much as i could, and i hope Pep and Jake stay..

Jake too huh. I'm just a fan. not like what I say matters to this organization. Is it cleveland that like that? With the owner listening to what all the fans say on the radio, and basically doing what he is told.

Anyway. I'd like to see open competition at QB. Delhomme, Moore, any FA pickup worth a damn.

I would not let what Pep feels like to dictate what to do with him. Best case for the Panthers is to franchise him and trade him for a first and a few more picks. Jared Allen went for a 1st a two 3rds.

Or pull the Shaun Alexander on him and franchise him for the next two years (year to year trying to prove himself) finally work a deal and cut him when he is 31 YEARS OLD.

This is the peak of his value...take full advantage of this. Either make him prove his motivation year to year or sign and trade. We have no pass rush with him so at least we could fill a few other holes and at least free up money to actually get someone who shows up consistently.

I think when everyone cools down and the witch hunt is over we will look back at 2008 as a great year (12-4). The bottom line is the Panthers didn't show up to play saturday. The coaching staff didn't do their job either. Everyone picked the Panthers to blow out the Cardinals. The Cardinals showed up to kick our arse and they did. Jake and Pep will be there again next year.

it just absolutely BAFFLES me that this is STILL BEING DISCUSSED!! Julius Peppers IS the Carolina Panthers..if U r a TRUE Panthers fan , U MUST realize how valueable he is 2 the defense, as well as this team. The man had more sacks and forced fumbles (hence the pro bowl appearance) this year than in a while. Teams STILL prepare themselves for him in their game plans against us. If he has dropped his performance in the past few years..it's attributed 2 the fact that teams PLAN for him..as they do Steve Smith..as they do DeAngelo Williams.....Julius Peppers is just as important...Do U watch Pepp on the field? Do U see what he does? The Houston Texans (Dom Capers) went and signed a DE and gave him the same number ..trying 2 "franchise" him as a Julius Peppers. That man simply puts F E A R in other opponents :

MOST FEARED DEFENSIVE PLAYER : Julius Peppers ..from an S.I poll of NFL players.

So the fact that so called PANTHER FANS are here discussing him leaving and how they wouldn't mind .....KILLS ME!

    • It's funny how the teams with the great QBs stay at or near the top of the league every season.  Yes it is a team game, but the QB has the biggest impact in most NFL football games. 
    • Look, no one is ever a perfect player.  Since the QB handles the ball on 100% of plays offensively (unless there's a direct snap to a RB or something), I can absolutely see where they get an outsized blame and gain from what happens at any given snap of a football game.   Theoretically, there shouldn't even be a stat or idea to a 4th quarter comeback or game winning drive because you should already have done that during the game.  Losers!  Right?  Just because you win late doesn't take away the fact you tried to lose the game for your team! I'm not a fan of that opinion, but again, I'm just a moron with a keyboard.   Bryce has limited tools.  Bryce has not inspired the same level of confidence in us as Cam Newton did in year 3.  I certainly get that.  We traded a TON of assets to get Bryce, and we still suck.  (I mean, since we've lost games, we're losers right?) I completely understand that some fans are just unhappy with a limited QB and a team that isn't performing well, unless the other teams are worse losers than we are. I will say this:  Bryce will fight until the end.  Sure, he's has some real loser football.   But in close games, he's doing his best to comeback (even against a winner of prevent D). Now is it better or worse if your QB plays their best ball in the first half and sucks 2nd half so long as they finish with 300 yards, 3 TDs for your fantasy points? Who said stats are for winners anyway?  The Panthers and Bryce has a long way to go.  I'm enjoying the winning right now.  Though I do start each game thinking "how will we fug this up today?" Because it's been such a poo show in the Tepper era.  Will he prove to be a legit starting NFL QB?  Maybe not here as evidence by our record with QBs who were high draft picks.  
    • Ive never liked the term game winning drives because they include games where the QB was part of or was the reason the team was behind in the first place. Ive been arguing against this stat since the Delhomme years. It should only count when the QB is out of the equation of reasons why the team fell behind in the first place and is at least half the reason why he led the last drive to give them a lead. It shouldnt count if they just hand it off most of the time and the RB is on fire and they go down and score a TD or FG.
