Panthers' Julius Peppers: Notches third sack in loss

Peppers had three tackles (one solo) and a sack in Thursday's blowout loss to the Steelers.

The Panthers struggled to slow down the Pittsburgh offense all evening, with Peppers' sack representing one of only two hits put on quarterback Ben Roethlisberger. The 38-year-old isn't the consistent force of his younger days, but he has three sacks and two forced fumbles so far to go with 12 total tackles through nine games.
