Um, Top DE might be a stretch when you had Jason Taylor and Strahan and now Mario williams Jared Allen, Tuck, Freeney

Reed is a lock for thr HoF. Peppers not so much

I was totally talking about projections. Peppers was a prototype 4-3 DE, Much like Mario Williams, who went 1st overall.

I love Ed Reed as a player, and if it were up to me, and we could look back and see the production, he would have been on my radar. But we cannot.

Once again, if I am drafting for the team, a prototype DE will go off my board 9 times out of 10 over a S.

i do not believe it was necessary for richardson to do that. not all players are born to be vocal leaders, but rather lead by example. it is not imperative for a DE to the vocal leader of you defense like it is for a QB is on offense. i do not think it is fair to crucify him for that, it is not the kind of person he is.

now in chicago he has people like urlacher and tommie and chris harris to take that pressure off him. he was not born in chicago and play football his whole life in chicago, so the expectations for him to be a vocal leader will not be as important. he will go out there and lead by example and will bet my forum rights to post on this board that it will be his best year ever.

People around here are just butt hurt that he left. Beleive me they know Peppers was the best defensive player in panther history.

Peppers is going to dominate with the Bears this year. I believe he's going to put up career numbers. Glad to hear he's doing well with the Bears; as he is still my favorite player in the league. I just hope when he comes to Carolina, he takes it easy on us, but I fear he's going to go off against us. Gross is going to get destroyed lol, but hopefully we still come away with the W. I still bleed Panther football, but I'll be watching a good amount of Bears games to keep up with Pep. There's going to be a lot of Peppers jerseys being worn when he comes back down here lol

He will have 3-4 sacks.

i think i lost the notebook i use to keep track of who said what on the huddle. sorry

You should be sorry. And for all those people that said that, they dont have the balls to make a $50 bet on it

[MadHatter]

I think Pep will have about 10 sacks this season....good thing he plays against the Lions.

[PantherDude]

Peppers a team captain.... lol

Pepp has always looked good in camp. He looks good just until a bit of adversity hits him.

Word. Against good offense team, Pep struggle. He doesn't have the heart anymore either.

uh, any DE can have a great camp against the bears O-line.

Yep, especially when the QB is Jay Cutler!!

[dimbee]

We can always count on you, PantherDude

[Matt Foley]

I still think his inconsistent effort and result will resurface during the season.

Peppers had the ability to dominate....when he wanted to. It just seemed like he seldom wanted to.

Funny how the scouts were right. They saw the same thing in college. A puppy with brown spots becomes a dog with brown spots. That being said, I bet he has 20 sacks this year.

[Darth Hater]

uh, any DE can have a great camp against the bears O-line.

No argument here but even so, Peppers will have at least 12 sacks this season probably 6 against the panthers.

:rolleyes5: Like the Vikings in 09?

We've got this guy too.

[MadHatter]

Keep Peppers.....we've got HARDY.

He looks like Peppers with a heart.

[Proudiddy]

F*ck him. Let him get 200 sacks in the next 2 years, I won't give a poo. It'll just show what a POS he is for sandbagging it while he was here pouting in his own imagined misery. And if he ends up a HOF'er, let him go in as a Bear and make no mention of the Panthers, I don't want us to be associated with him.
