Peppers is a helluva leader on the field, he just doesn't want to be a public leader. Watch video, he's very vocal calling his team mates up, etc. He's just too shy to have that roll with the public...

Do you think that the team should elect Pep as one of the team captains this season after the hold out? Personally I say..........nah!

this whole thing with fans getting their feelings all hurt because pep wanted to leave is getting old

and it's not a hold out by any means

remember the '07 fiasco where richardson had a talk with peppers and asked him to step up and be a leader, and then he was made a team captain? peppers was completely against it. he didn't want to be a leader, he just wanted to play football.

correct me if i'm wrong, but that's how i remember it

From an outsider's perspective, which is all most of us have, Harris and Beason seem like the true leaders of the defense. Beason was a captain last year, so he'll get the vote again. The other spot is between Harris and Peppers. It will most likely go to Peppers, due to his seniority with the team and overall prominence.

      Statistical reasons to Scratch Ickey from returning as a LT--Even in 2027

      By Soul Rebel · Posted

      Sound write-up MHS, as always.  Agree that the smart move that forward thinking franchises make would be drafting a tackle early, if not for sure in R1, depending on who's there. Based on early predictions we're choosing between Fano and Proctor. No brainer here...Fano all day. Proctor does not move the needle for me. In my mind, Icky has less future here than Brooks does. I love Icky, but he has been average as a top-10 pick, one good year where you saw the potential...and that was this year. He's built like a RT and his strengths are there, but he's always played left. I also feel like part of what has held him back from being elite, was his work ethic. He was known for it coming out, but feel like he fell right at home in Carolina and maybe didn't push himself as hard as he needed to. Throw in a major crucial injury that will take time to recover and a historical low return rate to current form, and the outlook is not great. Fano can play both sides and we need to also plan for Moton's departure. Either way, delaying drafting a tackle early this year will hurt us down the line. Our current OL is overpriced and needs to start adding draftees to start balancing out the inevitable changes coming in the next 2-3 years.  As others have said, maybe Icky can replace Hunt or Lewis in a couple years when he's fully recovered....IDK. Also not a guarantee, but then you have to figure out his contract and it becomes even more clouded.

      It's past time to just eliminate it in terms of an event. Just do the voting, name the roster, and move on. When you get down to 6th and 7th alternates it's just absurd. It doesn't mean anything.
