[QUOTE="GoPGo, post: 609118, member: 9064"] How about because [I]everyone[/I] has a bad day? Or how about because you don't know the situation? How do you know he wasn't fighting the flu during that game (in which case he would be a major badass just for playing)? The bottom line here, and the [I]only[/I] thing that matters is that the Packers a) know far more about him than anyone on this forum, b) have weighed the positives against the negatives, and c) have determined that those positives far outweigh whatever negatives they observed. I personally couldn't give two ***** if a QB beat him one on one. How many sacks have you seen Clay whiff? I've personally seen quite a few over the years. So what if he didn't have a good game against OSU? There are plenty of times Peppers didn't have a good game. Your other argument about him not doing so well in one game against a good team doesn't work either because football is a team sport. He was a damn good player on a 5-7 team last year. He will be surrounded by better talent in the NFL as well. And whether you want to sweep it under the rug or not, it remains that he is 7th all-time in tackles for loss in spite of missing 5 games as a junior. That's an indisputable fact, not some writer's opinion. BTW, it is worth noting that he had 13 tackles against #21 Utah and 12 tackles against #5 Michigan St. But I guess in your opinion those must not have been good teams. [/QUOTE]
