Whatever happened to Peppers red zone plays

now this is a reasonable question.

and the reason for that is most likely to ensure peppers is safe and used smart. trick plays could lead him to get unnecessary hits at his age. him as our primary monster pass rusher is fine enough. 

How was the Bradberry question or the Marc James post not reasonable?

the marc james is fine. never commented on that.

the bradberry one is far too random and obscure. at least keep some of your posts relevant and reasonable. bradberry on offense is a dumb idea no matter how you push it. 

keep things reasonable, relevant, and smart around here and you'll be okay around here.

He has a gadget play on FGs we may or may not see. 

 

The reason we don't need him on offense is quite simple. He can't run a fade better than Kelvin or Funchess. He can't block better than a tackle-eligible or Ed Dickson. When we put him out there for the fade, our number 1 was Steve Smith. Our number 2 was probably Keary Colbert or Ricky Proehl. And it never worked. Not once. 

 

We don't need that kind of gimmick on the Goal Line with our backfield and Kelvin on the outside. We just need to execute.

Dude. Moose. They never ran one of Peppers' fades after 2003.

    • Something I find interesting is that you are more likely to find successful players as UDFA's than you are to find them with a single pick in any round past 3.  Those 3rd round compensatory choices?  Largely worthless.  Yes, I get it, there are a lot more UDFA's than there are drafted players in later rounds.  Basically, if you're fishing for starters you are simply not going to find anything in Rounds 4 - 7 with any regularity.
    • the argument that Dan Morgan was assistant GM for years while running counter to everything both his bosses signed off on (who look down at him and his staff for info).....is a tough sell.  I feel we do a variant of this every year.  You aren't this bad...becuase of 1 person.  You are this bad because of LOTS of bad people.  It was never just Joe Brady.  Which is why firing him didn't lead to better offense.  It was never just Matt Rhule.  It was never just Fitterer.    As bad as we are, we need to scorch Earth this puppy and quit letting people who were part of making the mess be the designed folks to lead us out of the mess.  when David Tepper and Jim Caldwell found the answer on the roster......it was clear from the jump nothing had really changed.   
    • "Buckaroo." That's good. 🤣👍 Mature beyond his years, clearly. Brian Burns was a far more justifiable asset to trade for a good return during the 2022 season, than DJ Moore (who was shipped out the following spring). Do you disagree? Let me know. I'd have traded Burns before McCaffrey, and I wouldn't have traded Moore at all. It's possible, despite what Morgan and Fitterer display, to turn down a bad offer. Thirty-one other teams are aware of this. That brings me to Johnson: if your "leverage" is "he wasn't gonna re-sign," you have no leverage; which, as you said, means you shouldn't make a trade, right? Do you disagree? If so, quickly adjust your prior stance. Giving up No. 1 in 6 and a standout WR, even if he's petulant, for No. 30-32 in 5 = demonstrably stupid. Keep the comp pick if he re-signs, or see if he can be convinced to stay with a new non-Shedeur QB.
