He has Peppers as DPOY edging out Clay Matthews which I think is ludicrous. Did individual defensive performers underperform that badly this year?

IMO its Matthews easily. He had more big plays for a higher rated defense. I find it hilarious that on a defense that was probably better than this Bears team, Peppers got zero recognition for DPOY as a Panther a few years ago.

Matthews does have more sacks.

Peppers has more INTs, FFs, and PD. Peppers has been an absolute beast this year....far better than his stats indicate.

Better than he was here? IDTS. In 2008 he had 14.5 sacks and 5FF in a year where our team was the 2nd seed in the NFC, yet got no recognition for DPOY. Dumb.

    • Roger all that. Do you think BY avoided any sacks last game? This oline is not what you're touting them to be. They are much better then 2023! Much much much better than 2023. But come on now, you'd expect this expensive oline (most are run blocking specialist) to at least dominate in the run game every game.  And... I keep telling you our WRs and TEs are not that good yet. I mean last Sunday was a prime example. Our receiving targets never make plays like those. Never. And this is from one of the worst teams in the league. Shough could have easily had 3 INTs if not for his receivers making plays on the ball. Our guys just don't do that. XL almost allowed an INT backing up out of bounds instead of coming to the ball. And everyone would have blamed that on BY. That's why he doesn't throw to that dude. I can't recall a game except maybe the second Falcons game - maybe, where I thought our receivers could possibly be better than the other team's. I think TMac and Coker have a lot of potential. But they're aren't consistent. But they're young and WILL improve. I'm confident of that.  I don't agree that BY was drafted to only stand in the pocket. He has always been best off schedule - for better or worse. 
    • Do you think you will get a direct answer?  Icky giving up 5 pressures (playing hurt in his defense) by himself and Bryce only getting sacked once tells you he played well in the pocket.  He extended plays and converted some tough downs.  
    • I've been very apprehensive about potentially firing yet another head coach. But Canales needs to focus on being a head coach first and foremost and begin handing off some responsibilities like playcalling duties and begin overseeing the entire team or we need to assess all possible ideal HC candidates in the offseason.
