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?

      There is a Grand Canyon-sized chasm between your opinion and the opinions of most former player hockey guys who do this for a living.

      Why does Bryce get the blame?

      To say that, is gaslighting, because it isn’t true. I mean, maybe one or two people do that but it isn’t the predominant behavior. Even Frank has given him credit. I think particularly the Rams game. A couple of glowing posts.   I know I have. Gotta be honest about it because if you aren’t it undermines what else you say.  But the degree of how far I go with credit, in terms of it being a projection of future performance? Not very far. Acknowledge it, but require more of it. There is a lot of bad play to offset.    I tried to remain passive while the last 9 games (post ankle injury) played out. It is just really hard when the lows won’t go away. I failed. As high as a couple of those highs were, there isn’t enough.    I know it is premature to just say I want to move on, made my decision after 6 of those games ended up pretty much really good or not good enough, but I have had enough of being patient and letting him show the reality either way.  So in my view, he Could still validate himself to a decent degree if he smokes the last three starts. But also in my view I don’t expect to see it. Maybe one more high quality start, would be my expectation. So yes he could still somehow justify having the job next year. If that happened I still wouldn’t have much faith given the last three years and all that has transpired. Again, there is a lot of bad play to offset.
