PFTV discusses Peppers prospects in other cities

no news...

We'll never know what the Panthers were REALLY going to do because of Carey's bungling. Nobody would give you 16mill and beg you to stay if they wanted you gone. The FO was probably still po'd about the treatment they got last year.

I'm just happy Feb 25th isn't far away so we can end this bulls*@t cause I'm sick of it. Neither party handled this situation well at all. The Panthers I'm afraid, will be on the loosing end of this one.

The FO and defense could loose some credibility cause if you were gonna let him go it should have been last year and then there is that filling the ProBowler, elite player hole in the D line. They don't come along often.

Summary......We have nothing to report now, so let me speculate and throw poo against the wall. Something is bound to stick...then I can say that I broke the story.

That is all.

I take it that you didn't actually watch it because they don't even attempt to do that. Florio and the other dumbass, I forget his name, spend the first 3/4 of the segment stating the case why the Panthers won't franshise him. Then they say that the Patriots were interest last year but other than that he could end up on any team.

Its pretty bad when they attempt to throw poo on the wall but forget the poo! LOL

"Anybody who drops a ton of cash on this gutless selfish punk will regret it almost immediately"

Looks like bitter Panther fans are actively posting comments.

Gutless: One can argue that he disappears at times but his post college job description says in order to get a paycheck he has to stand toe to toe with 300 LB linemen.

Selfish: I have never turned down a raise or purposely done anything to limit the amount of money someone was willing to give me for performing my job.

Punk: See Gutless Caption. Like him or not, dude is a bad agent.

Point is, the situation with the Panthers sucks but Peppers is an employee with a unique set of skills looking to maximize his wealth. Short comings be damned, he(and any one else for that matter) should get as much money as the free market is willing to give him.

I could care less about Peppers leaving. He really has not been an impact players since 04. Yea he gets sacks and has great games like the Vikes last years but that was one damn game. He should do that every game because he is capable and thats what they pay him so much to do.

I'm thinking it will go something like this...

Panthers refuse to franchise him. They can still sign him to a long term deal before FA starts but he wants significantly more than what they are willing to give. He hits free agency and sees his value around the league is much lower than what he's asking for. His agent lets him sit on the market for weeks waiting for that big offer to come in, which never happens. Eventually he signs a deal with the team that offers him the most, the Panthers. The deal ends up being less than what they offered 2 years earlier.

Just a total guess.

    • They can get film of all the games? Every team? Wow! Who knew… Our games with them are big examples of why they are in  the CB market so hard.   It is the study they do getting ready for the games.  Preparing to play against is a little different than just analyzing film in scout mode. Deeper dive. Then you are analyzing post game too.  This goes to why players often change teams but stay in the division. The opponents know each other on a higher level.  Plus if you lost to us, you used to get fired. Now you have to trade your first round pick. Moving up on the world. 
    • I honestly can’t believe this team’s turnaround this season. It’s surreal. Figured healthy we’d be fringe playoffs and with another lottery pick could finally turn the corner, but we don’t even need that. This group is ready. We haven’t played remotely well the last 5 games and yet still blew out 5 bad teams by 16+ each game like it was casual practice. We had a few solid teams with Kemba and Big Al but this is easily our best group since the original Hornets moved to NO. Man, what a shift in culture this new ownership group and front office has brought. So damn happy to see it after years of suffering and consistently meaningless games in this stretch of previous seasons.   Only 2.5 games out of the 6 seed, although Miami, Atlanta and Orlando have been playing well too. Gonna be a fun final stretch, hopefully we can get a top 8 seed at the very least. Celtics tomorrow will be a good test. Would be huge to keep the road winning streak up against a very hot top team on the 2nd half of a back to back. We’ve played Boston pretty well the last few years with much of this same group despite sucking so I do feel pretty good about it. Kon is due for a huge game coming off a few cold shooting games (although despite the poor shooting he’s been contributing well with defense, assists and rebounds).
    • It amazes me how underrated Horn has become after he finally was able to stay on the field. Sure last year wasn’t perfect but he was still a huge reason for our rebound defensively and I’d say he’s easily a top 10 corner. You don’t want to see Mike Jackson as our top corner. Any player is available for the right price but I’d be extremely hesitant to move Horn even for a big haul from LA.
