Pep will have a career day on Sunday

Did you guys ever see a Panthers practice where Peppers was going up against Gross? I'm not sure I EVER saw Gross beat him...and he's our top lineman.
happened all the time. he's played against and shut down much better than peppers. he knows everything that peppers can do. if anyone knows how to shut down peppers, it is the team that he played for his whole career. doubtful he's learned anything new...he just isn't capable of it.

He will have a good game. He has something to prove we do not. We just want to win. Guess what? We wanted to do that last week too and the pocket didn't protect Jimmy. I'm sure Jimmy watched the Bears game saying, "poo". We can still win the game easily though. But there will be stats on Pep's side.

we have had something to prove all season long. Don't u think rookies in their first year and players playing for contracts don't have something to prove? Yet we still have laid eggs in all 4 games.
more likely to prove it this game than any other one so far.

Gross is irrelevant. He won't even be wasted blocking Peppers when we can chip him with a running back and he'll quit and wait for the next play.

    • I'm probably one of those posters, but I make those posts because there are too many things going on that don't make sense. For instance, how does a RB that does something that hasn't been done in 14 years immediately get reverted back to 2nd string, and it takes a leadership council to make him the starter when he's averaging 3x the YPC? Your average fan shouldn't be screaming that for 2 weeks before the coach sees it. And that's one of many.  What you're seeing is frustration that we could be better, that we should be better, if our owner, FO, and coaches could do things that are so painfully obvious to even the most basic fan 
    • Cowboys. Patriots. Couldn't ask for two bigger villains.
    • I think we're all struggling with what things are right now and what they have been. It's like getting ready to have bandages removed after a long period of injury. The healing, the new growth, they aren't going to be pretty, there's going to be some ongoing issues for a while at best and there's every chance that we're going to have to go back into the bandage situation all over again. And that sucks. But it's also a place where maybe, just maybe, the recovery is going to finally start happening. The bad days will be getting behind us.  It's not going to happen this year, but I believe from what I see that this year is showing that improvement. We focus on the QB because that's what all the pundits focus on, because it's the flashiest and most heralded position on the field. No one wants to put out a tweet about how a center is holding down their job and anchoring a line. They rarely celebrate that blocking tight end or special teams gunner. That fourth CB on the depth chart? Not a mention. And yet, those guys are the kind that we've been building here, we're building the lunch pail guys AND finding some future stars.  Is Bryce one of them? Might be a cornerstone of the team in the future as the second QB, might somehow just show out to end the season. Might flame out like many expect. But if that uncertainty is all we concentrate on, we're just going to miserably look at this team and maybe miss out on some solid green shoots that are finally beginning to poke through into the sunlight.
