Sounds fair enough.  Hopefully we'll see this on NFL.com soon.  Than the haters will stop hatin.

Peppers, CJ, Addison, Ealy, Horton, KK, Star, Butler and Love. It isn't the greatest DLine rotation of all time but it should be pretty damn effective if everyone's snaps are properly managed.

I personally don't see Horton making the team.  100% chance we're drafting a DE and the chances of us keeping six DE's on the roster is slim.  I actually like the idea of keeping six DE's though but with Horton not being one of them.  I personally think they should double dip at DE in the draft because there's a good chance Peppers retires after 2017 and Johnson could soon follow, and the jury is still out on Ealy.  We all thought he was going to blow it up last season, but was a bit of a disappointment.  Had a few decent games, but if he ends up having another mediocre year, I could see G-Man moving on from him which is why drafting two DE's in this DE deep draft would make sense.

half life 3 confirmed?

If this is not true seriously ban him

if he suddenly starts driving a Honda Odyssey then we know Gettleman has gotten to him.

Ban this clown. Words have specific and exact meanings. Your words say that Julius Peppers is a Panther. Your post is fine. Your thread title is a lie. fug you.

I hope this true, it's believable at least.   We were going after him last year.    I haven't heard of him linked to any teams this FA period and CJ is pushing hard to grab him.     

Peppers is 37 but I feel he's in age 29 shape.   He's still a great player.  He had 7.5 sacks last year in a defense that just isn't that great.    You use him correctly in a rotation with our nice DT core and I think he'll produce.    He also has ball skills so always a threat to grab an INT or fall back into coverage a bit.  

Put it this way, if you think Allen was helpful when he was here (he was) Peppers imo would be way better.

This has me really emotional. Him and Agent 89 are the reason a Connecticut boy is a Carolina fan.

I love how the one person Carolina chooses to target that can actually help this team win (which is the goal of sports believe it or not) the majority doesn't want.

Can't say I'm surprised.

They'll get over it.   Peppers, other than Smith, has been the most exciting Panther play to watch for me.  Luke is a beast but Peppers did crazy stuff here.    I was ready for interceptions and blocked kicks all the time with him.   He's a HOFer and probably the best Panther ever.    He's from NC.   It's time to come home.

I guess donating my Peppers jersey to goodwill was a mistake.
