Peppers disappears in big games. This is not news.

He will have plenty of opportunity this year to show the Cowboys, Pats, Eagles, and Redskins and others what they missed by not taking him.

Plenty of opportunities to 'maximize his potential' in big time games.

Anyone care to bet how many sacks, fumbles, interceptions, disruptions he causes without Oakland and Detriot on the schedule?

Are you gonna boo Delhomme if he doesn't play well? Beason? Gross? Smitty? Jarrett? Moose? King? Kemo? Otah? Davis? Harris? Marshall...?

That's not a happy panther.

Peppers is on the shortest leash because he said he doesn't want to be here and he is making $17m.

Meh, let's be honest... I'll be too busy drinking Cheval Blanc and eating Brie to care

I'm still quite content in my dissing of Peppers. A bunch of drama over nothing and drama that could potentially hurt team unity.

All good here.

I don't agree with how he handled it at all. I don't care what you say, it was completely unprofessional and self centered. Especially to a team and city that has treated him like God.

He had better show up in 09 if he wants to get back in the good graces of alot of people, and I'd imagine a few team-mates as well.

Damn, that's the last time I ever use a players name in a screen name...

Yeah, I have Hoover's number in my handle on other message boards. Once he retires, or Lord forbid, gets cut, I'll probably have some scrub as my part of my screen name. :D

Disappointment is very different than intense hate. That's what I don't understand, why the fans are taking it so personally?

He was one of the most loved players on the team and most people here expected him to be a Panther for life. People spent lots of money on jerseys, cards, even action figures, and now that he wants to leave all those things seem tarnished in their eyes. It's not necessarily the right way to handle the situation on their part but it is understandable.

No it's not, it's not reasonable at all. They bought those jerseys, etc. based upon what he has done in the past, not on what he's going to do in the future. I mean, that would be stupid and I don't think most people are stupid. I keep going back to a Sandal Bergman line in the movie Conan, "Do you want to live forever". Do you really expect a player to stay with your team forever?

      The Ringer NFC Offseason podcast

      The division is most certainly wide open. The Bucs are a problem but Baker Mayfield is and will remain his own worst enemy it's a matter of when not if he has a bad game or even a stretch of bad games. As far as the Panthers they have done an admirable job of trying to address needs as best they can without pulling a Scott Fitterer and getting desperate which has only made us worse off in the past. On the Bryce subject all anyone can really say at this point is we just have to wait and see. This is the year and despite what the Panthers may say publicly doubling down and going all in on WR is as good as any sign anyone should need that they expect Bryce Young to have a very productive and convincing season. The pieces are in place. They aren't perfect but nothing ever will be. Regardless there's honestly no excuse for this staff and this team not to be able to compete in this iteration of the NFC South. Also just want to say this because I can say the hyper defensive posts already being made in here and it's probably going to be a season with highs and lows again but hopefully more highs for sure. But just because there is dialogue about a position group or a player that challenges your preconceived notions or makes you uncomfortable does not make it "hate" or "anti" this player or that player. For some people who talk a lot about nuance you would think this wouldn't need to be stated but that's where we're at.

      We joke about how the NFL has a script for the season. But maybe it's not a joke?

      If I was a coach I would preach "Don't let the refs decide the game" because as soon as you let the NFL the chance to help their bottom dollar whether it be teams that make most money or gambling then they will screw the team that doesn't fit their bottom line......is it rigged? No but do they try and make certain narratives happen abso-freakin-lutley. As I stated in a previous thread NFL players are the ones that SHOULD have all guaranteed contracts but the boot lickers on this forum disagree and argue for the billionaires in this world who own these teams, sheep

      I wont go quite so far as to say games are rigged.  You wouldnt have to work hard to convince me there was the occasional thumb on the scale but outright rigged? nah.   but collusion on the rest of the "business" of football, sure.  No one really believes that the only time the 32 owners act as one is during the negotiations of the CBA do they?
