Peppers-New England Trade Scenarios

Recommended Posts

This is why people hate the Patriots... well, one of the reasons anyway.

Eh I hate the Patriots because they win so much and are media darlings, you know the Yankees syndrome every sport has one or two of those teams.

As for Belichick, I love to hate him but I admire the hell out of the way he does business. He's the biggest asshole on the block and makes no bones about it. If you deal with him you know your dealing with the devil, you deserve exactly what you get, but people keep dealing with him.

Reminds me of this guy........

Only way to get up on these types is to be more ruthless.

I have no doubt that the Patriots are up to something... this may explain a little. They are definitely in the market for a CB...

For the past 24 hours, it has been pointed out that trading QB Matt Cassel to the Kansas City Chiefs freed up $14.65 million against the New England Patriots’ salary cap.

But LB Mike Vrabel also was included in the deal, and trading him freed up another $3.35 million against the cap.

So with one trade, the Patriots saved a whopping $18 million that they can now use on other players. And it doesn’t look like they will waste a lot of time. Former Washington Redskins CB Shawn Springs is scheduled to visit the Patriots today.

Just throwing poo to the wall here...

What if the Patriots told the Panthers about Cutler going to Tampa. Panthers also want Cutler and the Patriots decide to use Cutler to get Peppers. So they take the KC deal instead and by leaking the story and pissing off Cutler and now puts the Broncos in a position to trade Cutler without getting Cassel. Of course the Broncos settleing for Delhomme would be plausable with McCoy being the new OC and in all honesty I think Delhomme would be really good in that NE style of offense.

I love the offseason. Everything is possible!

    • There is a Grand Canyon-sized chasm between your opinion and the opinions of most former player hockey guys who do this for a living.
    • I can only imagine the **** eating grins on the committee right now. "Oh, Bama didn't deserve it? Oh, Miami didn't deserve it? Suck it, haters!" lol
    • To say that, is gaslighting, because it isn’t true. I mean, maybe one or two people do that but it isn’t the predominant behavior. Even Frank has given him credit. I think particularly the Rams game. A couple of glowing posts.   I know I have. Gotta be honest about it because if you aren’t it undermines what else you say.  But the degree of how far I go with credit, in terms of it being a projection of future performance? Not very far. Acknowledge it, but require more of it. There is a lot of bad play to offset.    I tried to remain passive while the last 9 games (post ankle injury) played out. It is just really hard when the lows won’t go away. I failed. As high as a couple of those highs were, there isn’t enough.    I know it is premature to just say I want to move on, made my decision after 6 of those games ended up pretty much really good or not good enough, but I have had enough of being patient and letting him show the reality either way.  So in my view, he Could still validate himself to a decent degree if he smokes the last three starts. But also in my view I don’t expect to see it. Maybe one more high quality start, would be my expectation. So yes he could still somehow justify having the job next year. If that happened I still wouldn’t have much faith given the last three years and all that has transpired. Again, there is a lot of bad play to offset.
