Earlier today I read a report the bears are keeping peppers on the field. Like 93% of plays on the season peppers has been out there. Just watching peppers this season he looks alot more aggressive than last year. If I remember correctly peppers seemd to not be out there with the will last year like he is this year. He looks like he is out to prove something. Just my oppinion but letting peppers go has really started to show. Not sure what other people think?

Well whenever you give away a player of peppers calibur, there will be a noticable difference, especially when youre replacing him with a backup calibur player.

He may have been burned out, sometimes change rejuvenates people, and being a new member on a team, you have to earn the respect of your new teammates, even for a player like peppers.

People argue that we should have kept him, but he wanted out, he didn't want to stay in Carolina, especially if we were just going to franchise him, he wants a long term deal, just like any player in the NFL, never know when you might play your last play.

I hold no ill will toward Pep. Knowing what we know now, can you blame him for wanting out? Will you blame DeAngelo if he walks? I won't.

I just wished they actually called the holds against him when he was with us. He got two flags thrown on GB OLs on that drive than blocked the FG. I ain't hatin'. The guy is still a helluva player and I wish he was still here.

He wasn't kicked out, meaning its his decision. yes I blame him because its his decision- he wasn't kicked out. but really, i dont care anymore. he didn't want to be here good riddance.

I'm just saying knowing what we know about this team and the refusal of the owner to spend the money to be competitive essentially mailing this season in, do you blame a guy who is nearing the end of his prime for seeking out an opportunity to play for an organization that is trying to win NOW? I can't say that I do. I'm not so sure I wouldn't have done the same thing myself to be honest.

Packers' OT just false started afraid of giving up the safety sack against Peppers.

      I try to keep up and project the roster with color-coded charts.  You can see priorities and gauge who has the best chance of making the roster--you can see the priorities as well.  Here, Yellow is a 2025 draft pick, green is an undrafted free agent, and orange is a free agent. The depth chart will obviously change and I am not sure about roles (positions in all cases), so that is not the real issue at this time, but yellows and oranges show how the team focused on which aspects of the defense:     In the front 5, there were 3 draft picks, 3 free agents (not including players we re-signed), and two undrafted players signed. In the back 6, there was 1 draft pick and 2 free agents (LB, S), and four undrafted free agents. The undrafted free agents are always long shots, but by identifying them, you can tell which longshots might make the roster.

      The rise of analytics in sports goes back to the use of sabermetrics in baseball.  The ironic thing is that the whole point of Bill James work was to objectively figure out each players contribution to to a team's wins throughout the season.  This is possible in baseball because each at bat is essentially a 1v1 with an objective outcome.  Applying statistical averages also works a lot better with hundreds of plate appearances over 162 games a year. PFF grades plays subjectively, and then puts them into buckets.  They then create different statistics based on those buckets.  That's all well and good and I'm not saying it's useless.  But calling it analytics like it's some kind of objective science is a far cry from what is actually going on.
