Is Peppers burning his bridges?

yep, if you go back and watch the games. Peppers always plays. You might not hear his name called EVERY week......and if he doesn't show up on the stat sheet haters complain. The games he doesn't "show up" for are ususally games that opponents have made a point to take the ONE threat up front out of the game. Not hard to do in the league.

A john fox defense works better paying 4 Dlineman 4 mill a piece rather than one dude making 16 mill. Teams take Pep out of the game, regularly, and thats when hes not worth the money, he is human as we are seeing and not infallible. Thats what my main bitch is with him, we sacrificed the good of the D for one guy and we're paying for it...we can go 7-9 with out him.

take Pep out and insert another Charles Johnson and Carolina might have THE worst D in the entire NFL. Horrific DL, awful secondary....with a good group of LBs stuck in the middle. There is a reason Hurney was willing to pay him that absurd money.....b/c that one man makes a HUGE difference...even when he is "invisible".

    • If there's another QB that came to the combine after packing on 15 lbs of water weight to hide his playing weight, I don't remember it.  I understand it's all part of the pre-draft game, and he participated. The FO was stupid and ignored huge red flags.  On a side note though, I was at the airport a few weeks ago and saw a basketball team going through and decided to try and look through them. I'm 6'2 and these guys were 6'6 and up. I was amazed by how much I couldn't see around them. And these guys weren't 300 plus in pads. I still think he's having a hell of a time seeing the field at the NFL speed. 
    • There is merit to the points you're making here. On the flip side one could argue it took us investing 150 million in the oline for him to have a breakout season. And he has still yet to hit 1k rushing yards in a season. As far as Brooks goes the position does not require that significant of a draft investment for many other teams. That's not being negative it's just a matter of fact. The 49ers did quite well with a UDFA running back while McCaffrey was out. It is understandable that some people have concerns. That being said it boils down to whether or not you believe in the player. We just have to see what happens with him and Brooks.
    • Okay, that day in Vegas had to embarrass him completely. Andy showed him how to do the job.  What I think when I go there, why did it take Andy? He has had game after game of watching actual NFL QBs work and that didn't do it?  Anyhow Andy did not mess around, he stood in there and did his job and got rid of the ball ahead of the pressure. Down the field. With the same players Bryce had. Night and day.  If that didn't wake him up nothing ever would. But I don't think he has any sort of top NFL QB in him, he just lacks the full tool kit.
