how bout we get a little more positive about the peppers situation........yes i know another peppers thread. but look at it like this, beason and harris can take this defense over and motivate the players around them! and the giants lost they're two best pass rushers and they're D was still nasty! as long as we make some good FA moves to shore up our d line we could be a top 5 defense! we have all the ingredients still to get that elusive lombardi trophy. seriously we can build on this season! look @ miami 1-15 to 11-5. 12-4 is a lot easier to build on!

what's real..is that Peppers may get a rude awakening. I think he realizes that he can't live up to the expectations of the team...and more so the fans. He honestly hasn't been able to for about 3 years now. He wants out before he disgraces his name with the organization and team. Keeping it real, he's not the same Julius Peppers that we signed as far as his drive to " prove himself". It appears to me that he feels as if he's shown how massive of an athlete he is/was, and it took him a year off to realize it. This year, not only was he trying to prove himself, but to the other NFL teams as well that he "still has it". Maybe he realized that he may have lost a step and can't disgrace his name on the back of fans jerseys...and decided to leave on the "Jordan theory".

What's real...is that he's gonna go somewhere else and see that he has to start all over again, and maybe should've stayed where he was. Not saying that he won't be successful..just don't think he'll be as successful as he wants to be paid for.

Here in The Huddle any light at the end of a tunnel is a train.

LOL.

Although I am not happy that Peppers is leaving, I hope that we can get some good picks out of it. I don't have confidence in Turdo's schemes...but hey anything can happen I guess.

That's about as positive as I can get at the moment.

I agree at the getting a rude awakening part. Unless he has really been holding out on what he can do (which I cant beleive) then what does he think is going to happen when he signs a huge contract with a new team??

      Malcom Spence is the best player remaining, hope he’s there.

      The era that you played in, and, more importantly, who you played with actually matters. Honestly, that's why these issues will be debated forever, as it's just difficult to say that this person or that person is better when you're discussing the passage of time. As for me, after Rice, Moss and maybe Megatron and T.O., there's probably a dozen or so guys that can be argued about to the cows come home. Personally, I'm not putting Fitz, Harrison, Johnson, Evans, or especially D-Hop, Jefferson, Chase or Hill definitely in front of Smitty (and Colston ain't even in the discussion). Context and all that stuff actually matters. Things like the triple crown matter.

      Some of those guys? Yeah honestly you can.  I would 100% take Steve Smith over Larry Fitzgerald, Harrison, even Mike Evans. He is 100% a better player than those guys in his prime. If you look at the numbers Smith is historically under targeted in comparison to his contemporaries. He was only targeted 150 times or more only once in his career. Fitzgerald for example was targeted well above that 9 different seasons. Had Smith played with Peyton, Brady, Greatest Show on Turf, or even with Warner in Arizona he would broken records. His 2008 season was ridiculous accumulating 1400 yards in 13 games on less than 80 receptions. All time he also lost a season due to injury in 04, barely played WR as a rookie. Got robbed of 1k season with Clausen. Thats easily another 1800yds minimum that should have been tacked on to his #s. The only guys I’d say for certain are better than Smith are Rice, Moss, TO, Megatron, Julio Jones, Antonio Brown.
