Does Peppers owe the fans an explanation?

Given how reserved he is anyway, I doubt we would hear from him. If he wants to appologize to us, I expect to see it on the feild, not in an article.

i agree.

i think some clarification, at the very least, is deserved from the fanbase, but Pep, if he stays, will redeem himself on the field.

I dont want an apology, I just want an explanation for his actions. He comes out and makes a bold statement that he wants to leave the Panthers and poof he disappears for months. Why did he not sign his tender? Udogg, you may not give a crud why he did what he did, but I think most fans would like to know the full story.

The NFL is a business. He was merely trying to do what he thought would be best for him, which includes not signing the tender while he let his agent to try to work out a trade. It was all business. He doesn't owe the fans anything.

The NFL is a business , so we should not care who is on our team and if they stay or go? I could go out in my front yard and take a dump on his jersey and when my neighbor yells out to me "what the hell are you doing??!!" I will say I dont owe any explanation to you ! I am doing whats best for me, and my investment.

Its a business didnt you know !!??

You will prob agree with this too:

The Vick theory:

Dog fighting is a business. He was merely trying to do what he thought would be best for him, which includes torture , electrocuting and gambling of domestic animals and now he is letting his agent try to work out a trade for him. It was all business. He doesn't owe the fans anything.

We'll probably never know the whole story---not that it's any of our business. It's his job and his right to do what he wants. As far as I'm concerned he has not done anything untoward or unethical. Even if he had committed a crime, he'd still have the right to remain silent.

Well then, why are you still harping on getting an explanation when it's right in front of your face?

Peppers thought it would be in his best interest to more on to a different team, and he did everything that he could to try to facilitate that. Are you just out looking for an apology from Peppers because he said that he didn't want to be on your favorite team anymore, because if you are then you better not hold your breath.

      Does Brian Daboll get fired?

      By philw5289 · Posted

      I think Daboll stays. They’ll be alright with a new QB. I think Eberflus is gone first thing in the morning though

      How many drops today.

      By jfra78 · Posted

      Depends on what you call a drop.  That ball that Hubbard "dropped" was too high. Yea if he gets fingers on in it should be a catch, but that was an easy throw that allowed the defense to rally.  Even if he had come down with it, he would have been tackled immediately.

      A new coach coming in after what I think was one of the biggest clusters of a team last year and giving your first overall QB a chance isn't to crazy.  You really don't know until you get on the field and Canales saw what we all saw.  Bryce Young was not good enough to start.  But Canales, the staff and numerous other coaches who called about trading for BY thought he might be salvageable.   I agree with you that I don't think it smart or probable that BW would put up 300 yards and 3td.  That is why Canales isn't asking or expecting him to do that.  Yet. And even that "Yet" is just a possibility but it's too freaking hard to find a QB in the NFL and there were to many other factors last year to say BW is a total bust and move on.  Especially when moving on right now means a big trade, some QB off a practice squad or running with some UDFA. The worst thing would be stuck in 6-8 wins a season but that would be a hell of a lot better than the last few year but I get and agree with your point.  My point is simply that the possibility that BW turns it around and becomes a good QB is much more likely than Dalton or any other QB we could get giving us a better chance to win games and improve long term. The only thing I've continued to preach is he's the best option currently and going forward but that doesn't mean we don't bring in other players to improve and get better.  History has shown that this place is ready to cut bait way to early on players with little regard to the alternative, or other factors that play a role in a players success. I'd love to enjoy a win without being told repeatedly over and over by the same people why we are still a failure.  The whole yeah we won but... I'm not arguing and I don't think anyone else actually thinks that your QB throwing for 126 yards is a recipe for winning but I think most people would like to feel good about a win instead of focusing on the host of things we need to continue to improve upon to be a yearly contender.  Trust me, no one is going to forget we still have a long way to go.
