Julius Peppers: Panthers defense 'best I've ever played on'
Posted Sep 19, 2017
Julius Peppers played for the 2012 Chicago Bears (top-ranked in the NFL that season), the 2005 Carolina Panthers (second-ranked) and the 2002 Panthers (third-ranked). So where does the 2017 Carolina defense, which hasn’t given up a touchdown in the first two games, compare to others Peppers has been a part of? “This is the best one I’ve ever played on," Peppers said.
