Julius Peppers


God

Did you see the game? Warner had a giant pocket to step into the whole game. Peppers and Brayton would push the outside and Warner would just step up while Kemo and Lewis had almost no push up the middle. The only sack was because Lewis actually applied pressure up the middle and Peppers forced Warner to step up. That was when Warner went deep, which wasn't that often. Most of the time the ball came out so fast it was useless trying to apply pressure with just 4.

about the best play of the game was when pep sniffed out that screen by arizona that initially pushed them out of field goal range in the 1st quarter. theat would have easily went for big yardage if it won't for pep. when we blitzed we got in warner's face. parts of the defense showed up, but it got overshadowed by delhomme's problems, our secondary, and coaching.

Peppers was not a factor at all. I have a feeling his is not happy and wont be a Panther next year. IDK why I feel this way but I think he will grab as much money as possible after tonight. We also might have major changes a coaching cause this type of game gets people fired.

i wonder if some of you watched the game,like carolina sock said pep and brayton(also johnson) would get pressure around the edge an warner would step up.plus they did shut down johnny boy last week.blitzing out front four clearly wasn't gonna work,so when we blitzed more then one we gonna incompletions.when we sat in zones we got gashed.which one did we do more,sit in zones is the answer....pep draws attention so other can shine.

    • Exactly the type of thing he would have done here. The excuse people were stannin’ so hard claiming he would have looked just as bad. Just not true. 
    • Yes and there aren't 32 starting QBs in the league either. Too many teams and too many games. The NFL has regressed over the years and game quality is lacking. The other leagues are supposed to be farm leagues but it doesn't matter. You just won't have 32 no matter what they do. The move to super athletes playing QB at all levels has lead to this. It used to be those guys played other positions but now they are QBs who can't really QB.  It has a trickle down effect too. OL can't block because they never had to. The fact that in today's game your QB must be able to run at least a little to survive is evidence of this as well. IMO they have ruined the game same as with the NBA. It's been simplified to the point of being boring.  Just look at the top 10 this season. Patrick Mahomes (Chiefs) Joe Burrow (Bengals) Josh Allen (Bills) Lamar Jackson (Ravens) Dak Prescott (Cowboys) Jalen Hurts (Eagles) Brock Purdy (49ers) Jordan Love (Packers) Justin Herbert (Chargers) Matthew Stafford (Rams) Once we get to number 5 the stats look like this: 167 262 1,845 63.7 7.0 10 8 65 18 84.5   47.5   10 TDs and 8 INTs??? At number 5??? There was a time not that long ago that he wouldn't even be a starter.   
    • I'm not convinced that the NFL is any better or worse at developing QBs now than they were 20 years ago.  I mean I'm sure there are some developmental issues at play, just not sure it is any different than it has been. The biggest difference IMO is that NFL teams are waaaaaaaay more willing to invest a 1st round pick into a QB now than they were 15-20 years ago.  A guy like Colin Kaepernick would probably be a top 5 pick in 2025, whereas he went in the 2nd in 2011.  Would a guy like Trey Lance go top 3 in 2010?  Hell no.  Look at Russell Wilson - he didn't go until the 3rd round.  The standard for being a 1st round QB has dropped. So it may seem like we're seeing more high-profile busts at the position, but we're also seeing teams reach for QBs way more than they have in the past.  Someone with Anthony Richardson's college resume doesn't go in the top 3 20 years ago.
