More Pepper's speculation from SI

You know it's not like we were dropping 30 points a game on people, don't be stupid, our offense is no longer conservative.

Let's see how that offense is next year then we can talk about how good or bad it is.

The 2009 schedule does not have a loser in it. Let's see how Fox does, or if the 7-9 record against better teams continues.

If we had the chance for a weapon and a high pick for the Tinman, I say take it and run like hell.

Then again, Delhomme is no Kurt Warner.

yes though pep has been one of my favorites i dont want a guy on the panthers if he doesn't want to play for them. plus if we can ship him off to arizona for boldin and a draft pick or two there is a possibility to find a diamond in the rough at the Defensive end position in this years draft. now i havent been up to date in the draft projections this year but i think a young man named

Michael Johnson DE Georgia Tech. this kid reminds me alot of pep, just younger

    • I would heavily push back on the notion of Tomlin and Cowher inheriting "collapsed teams." From 1980 to 1991(prior to Cowher and after their Super Bowl victories) the Steelers experienced just 4 sub .500 seasons. In fact the winning percentage for those years was 0.505. At most that was relatively mediocre, something fairly akin to the pre-Tepper Panthers. From Cowher through Tomlin(1992 to Present) it has been the NFL's best franchise. 22 playoff appearances, 4 Super Bowl Appearances, 2 Titles, 15 times winning the division. In fact they have only experienced 3 sub .500 records in that 34 season span.  That isn't ever a scenario where rebuilding happens. It's constant and consistent retooling so that your franchise floor is always high. It's smart business decisions, exceptional drafting and quality personnel moves that create a situation where that floor STAYS high.  It was precisely BECAUSE we opted to go through a complete teardown and "rebuild" without any of that competence being in the organization at all that led us to where we are currently. A situation that will more than likely continue for well over a decade longer.  Long term successful franchises do not "rebuild." They are in a constant state of competent flux that sustains them through some leaner periods without ripping the foundation completely out that led to that success in the first place. 
    • Houston's OL sucks but Stroud has also definitely regressed. Similar story to Jayden Daniels in Washington. Both guys looked like future MVPs as rookies but sustaining success in the NFL at QB is hard. The more tape there is on you for opposing DCs to study the harder it gets.
    • So I was curious and remember seeing a tweet but here are Young’s numbers vs Strouds number since that time  Stroud since week 3 2025. Bryce since coming back off the bench and playing in Denver
