Can't wait to see Gross go up against Peppers

Whatever team Peppers ends up on, I can't wait to see the Panther that showed his loyalty go up against the one that thumbed his nose at the organization that gave him everything. It would be an amazing battle since they are very familiar with each other going at it in practice for 6 seasons, even after both switched positions. Can't wait.

if left one on one w/ Gross ( and Pep wanted to play)....he would abuse Gross inbetween Gross' false starts as he worried about Pep each and every play. Gross is very good and worth every penny.....but Pep is a rare freak when he wants to be.

Really Gross had no Problems with Abraham last year and he has been better then Peppers for three years now. Peppers is only great in our minds cause we have been around him for so long. Really there are better DEs that our O-line has gone up ageist.

Peppers would consistently get around/through Gross, but it would also be a consistent second or two too late to do anything.

It is a good thing we don't have a QB w/ a history of sitting back in the pocket too long from time to time and then laying the ball down. Seems like that is the ideal matchup Pep would love to go against.

    • So the last guy who had the job got hired by his former team directly into a role he has no direct experience in?
    • Hard to pass up millions for a couple of days work per week for a coaching gig in the NFL that is 60-80 hours each week during the season and a more relaxed 50 hours a week during the off season. Yeah, I'd love to see him as our DC but hard to see him giving up the cushy job there if he gets it. And he's going to be a great commentator for the network.
    • Really, I think that is where negotiations come in. If you've got a QB getting you to 10 wins but statistically he's not a great performer, then you say look you can take $22 million or you can try it on the market. Because let's face it, out there, any leadership skills that we're seeing aren't going to be on the table, it's just going to be performance and that lands him in the QB2 market, which is much, much less lucrative (although any of us would love that money).  No one is saying that Bryce will be a $50 million QB, barring something short of a miraculous jump. I'm just saying that if we are winning somehow with him at the helm, then it would be fuging stupid to dive back into the rookie pool all over again. Let's say we do hit the 10 win mark, heck, let's call it 11 and a second round in the playoffs. I think we can all say that would be a really uplifting result and one that should be doable if we have good play. What do we do then? Here's what I would offer if I were Morgan and Tepper. $25 million a year for 3 years, each year with up to $10 million in incentives for touchdowns, wins, playoff depth, being under 10 interceptions, completing a full season, passing yardage milestones, taking less than 15 sacks. Look, Bryce isn't a Ferrari, he isn't a Corvette, or a mid-level BMW. He's probably a new Toyota Sienna that will definitely get you somewhere and bring the whole team along with it, no fuss but not a lot of pizazz.  And really, it's about the destination, not about what drove you there.
