Why is Julius Peppers scratching two teams off his list of potential teams?

By Andrew Brandt

Peppers wants out. He knows the Panthers can place the franchise tag on him again, but the cash number would be prohibitive. Peppers wanted to make a preemptive strike against the Panthers to dissuade them from trying to retain him in case they had an interest.

I dont think Peppers has anything to worry about. With $13M guaranteed coming to Jake Delhomme, the Panthers have some cash issues to deal with. Peppers will be set free.

We can also scratch Green Bay as a potential home for Peppers. The Packers defensive line coach is Peppers former coach with the Panthers, Mike Trgovac. To put it conservatively, Trgovac is highly disliked by Peppers. I worked with Mike in 1999 with the Packers and found him to be a good person and coach, but Peppers feels differently. Hell steer clear of Trgovac at all costs.

So no peg legged man with pom poms for us.

IF you pay him he will come.

I think it was always unlikely though.

I thought Peppers wanted to play LB in a 3-4 defense and Trgovac is the defensive line coach, so he wouldn't be coached by him.

It's not like the Packers would be the only team offering Peppers money. He'll be making a ton wherever he goes, and he's already very, very rich.

The Packers reportedly outbid everyone for Lavar Arrington in '06, but he took a lower offer to go to the Giants. It's not quite as simple as you make it out to be. These aren't struggling carpenters hanging out outside of the local Home Depot trying to find work.

Mucky Tundra (7h) : They really need to to get rid of the auto first down for illegal contact

Martha Careful (8h) : watching the Vikings and Lions it's understandable why they swept the Packers. So much better product

Mucky Tundra (8h) : Even when GB got pressure he was throwing darts; vs no pressure on that last pass he just air mails an open guy

Mucky Tundra (8h) : Where was this Darnold vs GB?

Mucky Tundra (8h) : BALL DON'T LIE

Mucky Tundra (9h) : I'm rooting for the Lions to lose.

Zero2Cool (12h) : Owner ... love it

Zero2Cool (12h) : Mayo was the guy they groomed for HC and one of the reasons they let Bill go.

Mucky Tundra (12h) : Pats have the #4 pick, lots of cap space and Maye at QB; should fetch some attention

Mucky Tundra (12h) : Well that didn't take long; Jerod Mayo out as Patriots HC

Zero2Cool (12h) : I would expect it to be higher in favor of Eagles

Mucky Tundra (13h) : Thst line seems...generous

Mucky Tundra (4-Jan) : Stinks for Lloyd. Hoping he comes back strong for next year

Zero2Cool (3-Jan) : Packers placed Marshawn Lloyd on reserve non-football illness list

Zero2Cool (3-Jan) : Luke Getsy been helping Packers defense. He's former OC Bears/Raiders and our old QB coach

beast (2-Jan) : Thanks dfosterf, I'm still kicking myself for last week, as I forgot to change to pick Vikings and Lions... after putting in a holding spot.

dfosterf (2-Jan) : There was quite a bit of "chalk" matchups this year it seemed, but not this week coming up

Zero2Cool (2-Jan) : Or we got better and by we I mean everyone except me

Zero2Cool (2-Jan) : We have about six that by percent would have won nearly any season. I guess 2024 was predictable 🤷

Zero2Cool (2-Jan) : You can check previous seasons. I quick did it and don't think anyone hit 70% before

dfosterf (2-Jan) : Hats off to the Beast

dfosterf (2-Jan) : I'm at 71.76% in pick 'em. 2nd place. Beast is at a flat 75% 9 games ahead. That 75% has got to be unprecedented this late in the season

beast (2-Jan) : I don't care deeply, just want some good entertaining games

Zero2Cool (2-Jan) : BTW, not serious.

Zero2Cool (2-Jan) : You don't care about it either!!!!

Zero2Cool (2-Jan) : NIL and Portal killed college, no one cares about it.

Mucky Tundra (2-Jan) : outside of Texas-Arizona St, it's been a snoozefest

beast (2-Jan) : I expect Georgia will change that tomorrow, but we'll have to wait and see. If they do, then only Big 10 and SEC are left.
