Been said before and is pure speculation, but would make the Peppers to NE saga a little more complicated. Also, what the f**K is the deal with everybody thinking they are going to get a ring if they sell their soul and go to fight for Capt. Hoody? When was the last time the Patriots even won a championship?

I can see buying into the Patriot mystique (to a point, anyway).

Saw this item earlier though and thought the same thing. If the Patriots are the object of Peppers desire, he really does need to take Bellichick's advice ("get off your butt and sign your tender, numbskull") or he could see someone like Taylor taking his opportunity while he winds up out in the cold.

You are right. If Taylor becomes a Patriot, all this talk of Pep to NE should die.

Lawdie...I have said on here FOREVER that he would probably be a Pat someday if the $$ is right...since before he got dumped by Miami...:P

It's far, far smarter use of their dollars if they feel they have some guys they can get in the draft to convert to OLB to get a guy like JT who can help them transition some new OLBs into their system because he can already play that position than to take a $$$ AND draft pick gamble on Pep being able to convert.

This wouldn't have been as much an issue if pep had gotten on the ball.

If Pep wants to go to the Pats, he'd better do something quick. Sign the tender...let the Pats/Panthers talk. Time is ticking. I know you hear it (how could you not?).

      Josina Anderson: Panthers NOT trading Adam Thielen

      By tukafan21 · Posted

      As I've said numerous times the last few days, having Thielen on the field has literally 0% to do with my views on this (I've even said I think Renfrow is going to take a ton of snaps from Thielen anyways).  He has more value to this team without playing a single snap than a 2026 5th round draft pick does for the franchise.   His value is helping set up T-Mac, XL, Coker, and Horn for long term success by helping them learn how to be pros, how to go about their business, how to train, how to do all the little things that helped turn Thielen from a D2 undrafted player into a borderline Vikings legend.

      Official Panthers roster cuts thread

      By tukafan21 · Posted

      He only wants to be traded because it's the Vikings who are calling. If he didn't want to be here, he could have retired, instead he took a pay raise to come back for another season.  I get it, it's an opportunity that he'd like to take, but we shouldn't cut off our nose to spite our face because he now wants to jump at this opportunity less than two weeks before the season starts. I'm not against trading him, I'm just against trading him for a return that doesn't help our team as much as having him on the roster would.  I'll put it this way, if a 5th is the best we can get for him from the Vikings and he's now dug in on not wanting to stay this year, I'm saying screw you and trading him to any of the other 30 teams besides the Vikings for the best offer we can get. He was perfectly happy here a week ago, if the Vikings soured him on that and then want to get him for peanuts, then screw them both.

      Yes and no, he wants to go back and his wife most definitely wants to go back. He took a bunch of team mates to Minny and has worked out with JJ two offseasons in a row. It's where both him and his wife are from.    The money was basically a please come back and help Bryce. Pretty please...here's some more money.    Now he's agreed to a paycut to go back to the Vikings.
