WE ALL KNOW THAT PEP IS PLAYING MORE LIKE HIMSELF, BUT WE SEEM TO HAVE FORGOTTEN HOW MUCH MIKE RUCKER AND KRIS JENKINS MEANT TO A STOUT D LINE. DO WE HAVE THE PEP WE NEED TO FINISH THIS THING OUT THIS SEASON?:banghead:OR WILL WE DIE OUT AGAINST 3 OF THE BEST OFFENSES IN THE LEAGUE TO FINISH

We will be fine. There is something different about this team. They have heart. We have been missing that in past seasons. Peppers and others will not die down in this crucial stretch. If anything, he will pick it up. Remember, Peppers has lit up the league the past 5 games. If he would have started the season that way, he would be leading the league in sacks, easily. He is only getting better, and I expect nothing else. With Johnson and Hilee Taylor playing so well in reserve roles, there is nothing to worry about.

The Saints have nothing to play for anymore. I expect to win when we travel down to New Orleans for the final game. Not all players will throw in the towel on that team, but certainly some will and they'll just mail it in.

Beating CAR will give them nothing but pleasure whether or not they have something to play for this season. Remember the year they knocked us out of the playoffs.... Do not bank on that, it's still a divisional game and a game of pride which I believe ALL teams still play for regardless of playoff potential. Just ask Detroit, they want a win irregardless..... :nono:

Hell yeah I remember that one. I was at the game in fact. However the Saints were playing for a possible playoff birth. They needed to beat us and they needed the Jets to beat the Rams. The Rams ended up beating the Jets and taking the last playoff spot instead of the Saints. I don't expect the Saints to be completely unmotivated when we play them, but certainly they won't be as motivated as they would if they were fighting for a playoff spot.

      Monroe Freeling’s lovely GF

      With the contract money an OT first rounder makes you can ALWAYS get a new girlfriend.  And probably an upgrade at that.  You only got 2 parents.

      Brother. You are wholly confusing comparing situations and applying actual standards like most other franchises do like simply getting into a playoff series and winning at least 1 or 2 series games with praising. Nobody is praising the Hawks. Nobody is praising the Magic. Nobody here likes those teams. But reality is reality. The Hawks like other franchises have traded players fired coaches etc but they can still win a couple playoff games. How is that not the bare floor for you or anyone else? What are we doing here if it isn't? We've seen eye to eye on many things over the years. But you are in the camp on the Hornets where you are emotionally attached to LaMelo where you feel the need to carry his water like he's got that juice. That's cool that you feel that way. It's your prerogative. But I differ from that viewpoint entirely. If he had that juice we would not have gotten wiped off the court in 2 play in games with 2 different coaching staffs and rosters. if people don't like hearing that well I'm sorry but how the hell is this team ever going to get better and ultimately go anywhere in the postseason if we just blindly pat them on the back for getting their asses whooped before they actually even get into the real playoffs? There seem to be some Bryce Young level standards being applied here. That's wild to me. But to each his own.

      Jeremy Fowler: Panthers draft day intel

      Proctor/Freeling were always the belles of the ball where we were picking. What those two *could* become at OT was far greater than what others could be at their respective positions and I’m glad our FO could see that.
