[tps_title]Best Defensive Player — Julius Peppers[/tps_title]
Yes, we considered throwing this useless honor at Morgan Burnett. Burnett has had a very solid season, but Julie is still a game-changer. Obviously, Clay Matthews is playing like garbage, but the Packers’ pass rush is still boss. The reason for that is Julius Peppers. At least that’s the shit we’re shovelin’! He’s the only discernible difference from last season’s Packers defense, when the pass rush was utterly useless. Seriously, every week we’ve seen Peppers do something awesome. Even if he isn’t racking up huge numbers, he’s still wrecking fools on a regular basis. Wreaking havoc. Doing the stuff Matthews gets paid to do, but forgot how to.
