Jabrill Peppers has been a big fat nothing as a punt returner, which is surprising to me.
I didn’t think he was a great punt returner in college either. Just like today, I thought he settled for a fair catch when he could have ran so many times.

Khalil Mack had been a Bear for about ten seconds. He's helped knock Aaron Rodgers out of the game, forced and recovered a fumble, and has a pick six.

I just remember him looking like he got shot out of a gun on his returns.  It was intimidating

When he actually returned it, I would agree. His willingness to settle was a point of frustration for M fans.
How good is Mack? My goodness

It feels like every NFL coach knows the best way to win offensively, but hates to employ it unless necessary.  With a good QB, going pace seems unstoppable

I guess Aaron Rodgers is pretty good, huh?

Dumbest trade I’ve ever seen. 
He’s arguably the best defensive player on the planet a future Hall of Fame player just entering his prime and you trade him? Makes zero sense.

Yeah, he and Brady are just on another level from every other QB in the game. They are 1A and 1B in my eyes.
I love Mack. Bears fleeced the Raiders in that trade imo. But just goes to show how much more valuable an elite QB is than an elite defensive edge player. As good as Mack is, not sure any defensive player is worth $25 million a year. Only guy who is worth that sort of scratch is a QB. With the rule changes and the way the game is played today, the NFL game today is all about the QB.

unless you can't afford to pay him because you're paying yer QB too much

Seems like every Belichick assistant follows the Charlie Weiss/Romeo Crennel trajectory
