Saints looking forward to Pepper-less Panthers

Carolina officials have insisted that no decision has been made about Peppers' future. They must decide between Feb. 11 and 25 whether to franchise him.

Why is this so difficult? Offer him a long term contract. Otherwise work out a trade and get picks and players.

Seems simple....but we were in the same situation last year. We tag him....then he has to sign the tag for us to discuss any trades. As evidenced by last year, I don't think he is willing to let us have that control.

I think he will force it again. We will either have to let him walk, or tag him and he will colelct $20M. I don't think he wants the Panthers to have any say on where he would potentially go.

BAM!!!

It's as if they are already a 'dynasty' and looking to get started on a new season. :rofl:

They way I see it is Peppers dose not want to stay for a reasonable amount of money so the Panthers dont want to sign him. This year will be interesting cause no owner wants to spend alot of money facing the eye of the storm aka The Lockout.

It's too bad Peppers will be a Panther

Hopefully,

Exactly what I was thinking. Plus, we don't really know jack yet, so why bother.

but peppers does not try hard but peppers does not like football but peppers takes plays off :mad2: ....well there you have it, both players from the colts and saints raving about how good peppers really is. so all of you football gurus who know for a fact julius does not play hard, please read this article and shut up. you guys do not know more then the offensive lineman who go up against him and the players who game plan for him. this guy is a force and our defense is going to drop off dramatically if he leaves.

call me a whiner, but all this pepperless talk pisses me off a tad. Id really hate to see him leave.

... Peps like gonorrhea, it was fun getting him but its a b!tch to get rid of him...I'm ready for the medicine... now, if we could only get rid of that hemorrhoid Fox...
