I think that might just be more the nature of line play than a flaw in Peppers game.

People around here act like if we had a talented DL, we'd never face a well thrown pass all season, but even a talented DL can go missing for weeks, sometimes months at a time.

So I would say buyer beware on Peppers, because he's not going to fix a bad defense by himself. He'll improve your pass rush for sure though.

Are you saying our top 5 defense is bad? With the kind of pass rush these guys (haynesworth peppers) could potentially bring our D would be the best in the leage. We probly have the best depth at corner in the league, Solid Linebackers and are maybe a player away from a real solid D-line. If these guy produce for us like they've done for their current teams we'd have the best D in the NFL.

No, I'm not saying anything about our defense. Are you trying to claim that we're one of the five best?
