WHY, WHy, Why...

First off: Why would we not give Peppers the option to rotate his position on the field at his leisure?

Second: Why did we not pair Peppers and Charles Johnson more as bookends, instead of having Johnson as Pepps backup.

Third: Why did or did Johnson play this good when Pepp was still on our roster?

We lost one of the best if not the best DE's in the league, found a replacement that was already on the roster and we're still short a DE. Maybe Hardy will step up next year when given a chance. Can our current coaching staff not evaluate the talent we have well enough to gameplan to their individual potential? Why

Johnson, like many other players for the Panthers never got the playing time he deserved thanks to John Fox's lack to evaluate talent. Johnson had a great rookie season and should of started last year but No way he starts over Peppers. I honestly think we could of traded Peppers last year and let Johnson start. That way we could of at least got something for Peppers.

I think Gary Barnidge has the potential to be a great receiving TE but thanks to Fox we wont get to see him reach his full potential until we get a new coach. Which could be too late.

First, Peppers isn't a Panther anymore, who cares.

Second, Peppers isn't a Panther anymore, who cares.

Third, Peppers isn't a Panther anymore, who cares.

First, I made the thread, so I care.

Second: any Panther fan should care. You can't learn anything about your future without looking at your past. Yes Peppers is gone, water under the bridge, right Catman. We can't do anything about that and I wasn't asking any of you to bring him back. My point was simply how good we would've been when he was here IF Johnson was playing at the level he is now, then. And if he could've played at that level then, how could our coaching staff have missed that?

      Why does Bryce get the blame?

      By strato · Posted

      To start with, you wouldn’t want to count up that value chart. You would see quickly where that is headed. But you basically did a quantity comparison, while ignoring quality.  I am looking at 2023 as the start, because it became all about Bryce.  2023 you have 4 picks plus DJ Moore for offense vs 2 (80 and 145) for defense.  2024 you got the 1st overall, the 32, the 46 and the 101 for offense vs 72, 157, 200 and 240 for defense. Leave the FA IOL out of it. Which was a crazy big  investment. But it wasn’t draft.  Anyway, that is basically 4 top 100 picks for offense and 4 picks for defense in 2024. Except they were 2 first rounders, the second rounder, and the 4th was really high at 101. Vs 72 and day three stuff. Please….  Second quoted/bolded… See you think we hate Bryce. That isn’t it at all. It is nice easy way to characterize us and discredit our talking points though.   Me, I do mostly hate watching him play. But I don’t hate the person. I hate the hell out of the stanning.  It started with the very first question I asked about his footwork, arm strength, and size. Height being the principle objection. I never even got to the durability factor. There was plenty without factoring that in.  But there was rabid opposition to even asking the question of what a couple of small fractions of a second extra closing time would do for the defenders.  What the extra time it takes to flip the hips would do vs a pass rush or on the other end after the ball is in the air. Split second more for recognition where it is going for the DBs.  The tippy toe backpedal.  That poo was a mess and it has always been mess but no Bryce fan wanted to hear it. “Go get another team to root for”. “It worked in the SEC it will be fine in the NFL you don’t know football you are just a hater”.  It got worse when the real games started. It has never stopped. It is nice that many people have left that train so there is less abuse but it hasn’t stopped.  So whatever…

      Whatever school you attended, I don't know and I don't care, but I would suggest demanding a refund.    Something was completely missed there.

      The draft capital since since 2023 has in no way been pretty even.  Especially when you zero in on day 1 and day 2 draft picks.  Draft capital has vastly gone toward the O over D.
