Will Meeks bring out some leadership/fire in Peppers?


The Question

Recommended Posts

Davidson was a nice spark for the Offense with that change under Fox. I'm hope'n for the same thing from the Defense.

playing to the players traits on the O worked under Foxy's "run" based offense. I think the D could be the same way under Fox as well.

here's hope'n

I like that picture of one of the coaches yelling at the D-line with his neck tendons trying to rip out of his body, i know the former guy was very enthusiastic so hopefully the new D-line coach carries on that position

I think meeks approach will differ from trgdo's in the way that trgdo got too creative with peppers ability which ended up hurting his production a little bit, meeks will most likely just turn him loose like robert freeny

I don't think that Meeks needs to bring out any leadership or fire in Peppers. The guy is who he is. What Meeks needs to do is to make good on his promise to develop a system built around the players strengths.

Peppers really would be best if he could move around, take different angles, to take advantage of his speed and quickness. That is reallly what Pepper's wants I think and a reason why he might want to go to a 3-4. If Meeks finds ways to let that happen, within the context of his 4-3, Peppers will be content and will likely have his best year ever. If he doesn't sign long-term before July 15th, he may want to when he sees how this defense is built around him.

Fsntasy perhaps??

As a Panther fan, until proven otherwise, that's my story and I'm stickin to it.

    • He's not wrong though. You talk like a politician on here. Leaving yourself just enough wiggle room to say you never fully counted Bryce out if you need to....But we can all see it. Just say you think he is a bust outright and you will have to type a lot less. Obfuscating your opinion behind QB3 competitions etc....
    • Most EVs are in the 90+ e-MPG meaning some measurement house somewhere compares the EV to a similar ICE model and works out how much is costs to charge (on average) versus fill up as a point of comparison. Talking long term, in the hundreds of thousands of miles?  No clue.  Some early signs are that EV batteries maintain 80% charge over 400k miles.  So there's that.   The challenge and charm of an ICE vehicle is being able to park it under a tree, get your jack stands out and tinker with your engine.  There's just not that same level of complexity in an EV.  I saw someone estimate there are 200 or so moving parts in an EV, and 2000 in an ICE vehicle.  I'm not a part counter so I can't really speak to that. I think that the EV is more the future than any type of combustion engine.  Those will still be around in specific purposes, but for most people - an EV will be the superior option in terms of efficiency.  I say that as someone who loves stupid horsepower numbers out of turbo 4 bangers and inline 6s...  I am one of those tinkers when I can be. A bigger issue for EVs is going to be the ownership versus lease.  Right now, there are INSANE leases on EVs, which is great, but what do you have at the end of that lease?  Nada, maybe some equity if you're lucky.  Where as I'm almost done paying for my car, and plan to keep it until the wheels fall off (or my son wrecks it when he starts to drive).  Will EV makers do the smartphone thing and build in planned obsolesce?  Stop updating software?  I love the tech in EVs, and I think getting more cars and trucks off the road is a good thing.  But I am still just a little concerned.  Capitalism has gotten far too extractive.
