Julius Peppers A Buccaneer?

Joe bets Carmella Garcia would want to stay in town if Julius Peppers signs with the Bucs in the offseason
Pat “Vacation Man” Yasinskas, NFC South blogger for BSPN.com, has published a list of potential 2009 free agents and one name has Joe doing a double-take: Julius Peppers.
The 28-year-old Panthers defensive end is still a stud and would look great out of a Carolina uniform and wearing Pewter and Red. How awesome would it be to pillage the Panthers’ roster like that?
Bucs DE Kevin Carter is another name on the free-agent-to-be list. Carter’s played well, but having Peppers rather than him is a no-brainer. The Bucs are desperate for a pass rush.
Tampa Bay is way under the salary cap, even if they open the vault to keep Jeff Garcia, who is another guy on the list.
Joe recommends they hurry up and sign Garcia. He’s the best available QB for the 2009 Gruden-led Bucs. …And, of course, we need to keep Carmella in town.

An extension for Garcia!?! You’re outta your mind! Garcia sucks and will suck worse next year. He’s the ONLY thing holdin’ this team back from being a real contender. Also, if they resign Garcia, McCown surely will leave. McCown gives this team a much better chance at a Super Bowl than Garcia. Garcia’s one of the worst starting QB’s in the NFL.

Go after Favre again. Otherwise Garcia is the best option with Chucky

Dave T…do you really believe McClown gives us a better chance at anything? IMO…he will never BE anything other than a back-up as a BUC.
And I know you don’t believe Garcia’s one of the worst starting QB’s in the NFL. I could piss in the snow a few starting QB names that come to mind that are way way I mean WAYYYYYYYYYYYY worse than Garcia. One is Son of Bob…I gotta a lot of piss I jus need the snow Dave.

Chris – Do you remeber what he did in his ONLY start with the entire starting unit in New Orleans? The best offensive game in a very long time, and big win with a TD pass into the endzone, throw high where only his guy Stevens could catch it. That was his ONLY game with starters. Imagine if he had a full season with the starters. WAY better than Garcia.
Jeffy scares nobody with his arm or legs. Remember, McCown had the longest run from scrimmage last year, for all players.
