Julius Peppers isn't the disruptive force he was five years ago, but he's been Green Bay's best linebacker through five games. That's pretty impressive when you consider the former North...

Great FA pick up. He was the FA I wanted the most. I thought the chances of us landing him were slim to none.

I thought Peppers was done and was going to be a bust. I was wrong 🤦

Without Peppers, being able to use both 3-4 and 4-3 alignments wouldn't be possible. Even though he grabbed the INT, I still don't like to see him dropping into coverage.

Notice Clay gets an INT and runs out of bounds. Peppers takes it to the house.

That's cause Matthews has that HGHstring he's always anchored down with. If healthy he would have outran Forte with 6 points of statwhoring available.

Ted Thompson is pretty good at free agency, at least when the moves are actually substantial. It really makes me wonder why he doesn't use it a little more. Think back over the last few years. How many other Julius Peppers might there have been that could have helped this team? One? Two? More? Even a couple could have made a big difference.

He was essentially standing around with his thumb up his keester in space. The ball came right to him. The interception itself was almost embarrassing.

Now, the run-back was magnificent.
