Peppers situation: A blessing in disguise?


hdevonxz

Recommended Posts

Positives:

Frees a lot of cap space

Draft picks/players

Getting younger

With an even weaker defensive line Fox/Trgo will be forced to change their scheme. Hopefully they'll realize we don't have the same defensive lineman we did 6 years ago.

Negatives

losing great player

add your own.

Until you see what we get for Peppers... it's tough to say and how his career plays out, it's tough to say.

I really don't know what to think of Peppers, as a person. I think calling out the team really hurt his trade value for us. After all the Panthers have done for him, I think that was a low blow. Not that anybody outside of Charlotte has any sympathy for our franchise due in part to that.

Hey yall..First time posting here! Peppers has been a great player in Carolina. I know we are all sad to see him go. In all reality, I am suprised that half the team does not pack up and go with him. So much talent on this team and not alot to show for it! Fox and Jake need to hit the road... (Thats my opinion). Carolina needs to franchise tag peppers and trade him to Detriot to nab up all the goodies in draft picks they have to offer. Pay tons of $$$ for Matt Castle and wait for next year to pick up Bill Cower! But only if this was a perfect world!:nopity:

Thanks Kyle! Feels like home on this site! Im from Idaho and I am probably "THE ONLY" Carolina Panthers fan here in this state. So its good to know there are some die-hard Carolina fans out there to share my pain about our loss to Arizona. You guys are right, our defense didnt show up to play the last couple of games we had, so obviously Peppers was not that significant of a player to have made much of a differance. The only reason why it hurts to see him go, is the simple fact that maybe some of the other players (like Smith, Williams, Stewart, Muhammad, Goss) might get it in their minds that Carolina is not the place to be if they want to win a superbowl, and it wont be so long as Jake and Fox are around!

Cowher sucks balls. We don't need him. No team is going to win the superbowl every year, some of you really need to get a grip on that reality. 12-4 is a great record, so there is something to show for the talent the team has.. which is not as much talent as some of you want to believe (on defense). Will a superbowl victory come? Who knows. You don't know and I don't know. It's funny how so many are crowing for Cowher after we lost in the playoffs. Cowher lost in the playoffs every year he was there but one, and the one year he did win the Superbowl, he would have lost if not for a lot of officiating help.

Hey Eater! Nobody remembers 2nd place! Fox needs out just because he is way too easy on these guys. Carolina needs ACCOUNTABILITY and it is not gonna happen with fox around! Fox defended Jake after the loss to Arizona. That was not a "bad day" for Jake, that was a complete screw up! Now I dont know about you but, even though I didnt smoke weed and did any drugs or ever bring the police home to my parents, but everytime I screwed up, my father would woop my ass! ACCOUNTABILITY! Jake has done the same old bull poo over and over again, and If he doesnt do what he is being paid for (Deliver the ball to CAROLINA players) then fire his ass! Same goes for Fox. Denver fired their coach (he even brought 2 superbowl trophies home), why then should we stick with Fox? I have not seen any tophies in our case yet! So bring a new start and see where it takes us! We cant do any worse. Remember NOBODY remembers 2nd place!!!:banghead:

So did your daddy take you out in the middle of the street and woop your ass at a press conference? Or did he do it quietly in house?

Are you sure that Fox didn't "woop" jakes ass in private?

    • I truly do not understand why we rushed him back last season, we were a bad team with an already productive back in Chuba. Brooks looked like he was 60% back and clearly hadn’t regained full movement in his knee and confidence, no surprise he got reinjured. Shame on this training staff, look no further then Chuba returning too soon this season, I don’t care how bad a player wants to come back a training staff is there to protect them. Brooks is a great person and was an amazing player prior to both injuries, I hope he’s recovering well.
    • Brother thanks for sharing and all. Just for a 21 year army guy you sure over used your brain power on this interaction little too much...  Not that's Im taking a side or nothing, Ive never been a bully fan * in extreme deals bullying in needed..... I've heard from smart people in and around Panthers, Smitty needed Angie for guidance BADLY.  I've honestly thought if Smitty was born 20 years later, he should have taken a MMA path and not only would he have been a champion but a humbled good man with or without Angie helping him. He has never took off the enmoureous chip on his shoulder and it has branched off as a stick in arse over time too. Still everyone can not be or act the same with emotions, we are chemical sacks of water and bones. He reminds me of brain-washed individuals that can not turn off the switch. Plus he is high on thinking he's smarting than he is.......its a dangerous combo, but that's mainly what gave him the edge in life to live out the American dream......soooo I dare say change, but its sad at the same time. All those poor women that get involved with narcissistic disloyal men, one of the few times I agree to take what ever form them in court...
    • Completely agreed.  TBH, we have had so many great players that are in my favorite list, and I hate to narrow it down to one, but Cam is it.  Which is crazy, because you would think it would be more of the guys I grew up watching, but no.  Cam was the single most impactful player to ever out on a football uniform imo.  And like I said in an earlier post, I always felt a kinship with him in a lot of ways…  the way he was treated and judged for the off the field stuff in Florida and having to overcome all of that and fight show at back.  And although I am not a black man, I have always been welcomed by and accepted more by minorities, and thus, I know what it’s like to be judged by appearances rather than the content of your character and who you actually are.  I know what it’s like to be stereotyped and written off or mistreated for your mistakes.  I know what it’s like to be held to a different standard while your peers don’t have to meet that same standard.  So I always related to that.  And the way he came in and just electrified the whole franchise, man…  I still think about it often how much it sucks that because of how talented he was, our staff out so much on him and that ultimately cut his career short.  You’re right, there will never be another Cam…  I think Josh Allen is the closest thing we will see for a long time, but Allen is not the running threat Cam was.  Cam could run you over or around you.  That was THE absolute funnest time to watch our team ever.
