Came on the radio station and said there is a 99 point 9% chance. Peppers would not be a member of the Patriots in the upcoming year.

The bat well they in changed dramatically now the Patriots are there at the -- Philadelphia. Audits and kings that Al and about. Draft ammunition. At least make it interest. But I just just not sure that there's going to be a scenario where that I don't question that the Patriots would like to get a bargain deal.

    Schefter tells John and Gerry that Julius Peppers will NOT be a Patriot this coming season

    julius peppers found at 1:03, 2:52, 4:02

    all they want you and we go to bed rest the morning. Julius Peppers will not be an -- Patriots -- And it will happen for all the reasons that you mentioned. Partly because of the pending contract situations of those other Patriot players partly because. New England would have to invest enormous sum of money in Julius Peppers . Part because it would take like habitation because of that I know the word on the street is let him go this second round pick that. Think that they got from Matt Cassel the 34 overall selection in -- that would seem to make sense but. There a couple of technicalities to point out first and foremost. The Carolina Panthers. Right now are not allowed. To trade Julius Peppers because he hit -- this franchise tender. When Matt Cassell signed his franchise tender. That gave the Patriots the right. To trade
    enormous sum of money that you're going to have to invest in Julius Peppers for starters you're going to talk about a deal that. Basically changes the dynamics of the salary short short in the locker room. When you've got pending deals coming up with Richard Seymour and Vince Wilfork. You're talking about a deal that. I think Woodson Julius Peppers . Is a great player but when he talked people -- believe -- he flashes it is always come through when it matters
    How assure you that Julius Peppers is not going to play the Patriots next year. 99 point 9% short while while.

    doesn't make a lot of sense. For the Patriots. To bring in. Julius Peppers . He's a great name me the big name right front I don't -- Iran you know I just I don't I don't
    players they do a great job anyway. I'm I'm not sure. I Julius Peppers . Had a tremendous wonderfully scored. And does that mean you can't play football obviously look at his numbers guy at four and
    free agency and they haven't gone after the Albert Haynes worth the Julius Peppers would be -- category. Not the Fred -- nodding a terrific player. Great signing in Joey Galloway. You know Leigh Bodden . They they've. They're presenting teacher Sanders yeah Williams. You know I think for many Patriots fans. And and especially those. Who just work who have been looking for some reason why ballot checked it -- yet because what he did was wrong. And and -- Jerry's mind especially somehow this would justify. The trade of Cassell and Vrabel Kansas City for the second round pick in you know if -- and -- second round pick for Julius Peppers . I I think at times because Belichick is so smart and he has. We have a tendency to give him like supernatural

Theater -- that right now. That it you'd need of course there. To respect their respective -- work in Estes well there is men do so oh there we -- a lot of.

Hard work dedication -- always Erica these. For the colts we did -- here there'll be in the that are happening in order order order.

There and what did you do.

Plus plus I didn't hit it.

They did did you get your new day -- Thomas be humbled shirts.

Yes finally that they -- appreciate it horrible there.

On the back -- I didn't know what and then it would -- Thomas shirt says beat humble or get humbled. And it -- us this is the team where I guess they can they can humble you with your not right.

Pretty -- you know not big. You know that there's probably -- but it is the expression can be used more than just their football can be used -- like -- so. But it is thought that you know with it -- to billet could just think you -- doesn't did you keep an awful.

you know events I said -- a minute ago that that you know there's a lot of guys on this team who could be going to Hawaii with yet. This guy on the other line is one of those is good enough to be go on as well.

Beaulieu of the we've we've we officers will be there are Nazis they're they're very are going back when they're Eric you force I mean articles on more so on the if someone put in the work a lot of like a lot of critical is to -- Go practice is oh.

A deal as you said -- so humble thing starts with the head coach now he drives the media crazy with his one game at a time we're not thinking about stuff but but that's not an act right I mean this is this is the way that he leads this team in in it it has a trickle down effect.

I think so I think you know that the best way to approach videos weren't in season -- it doesn't it to great you know keeping up the way you know. Not being complete in common word that you know working part. Yeah I think that again it is triple -- it's although there and you know -- it is saying you think you've been because he has.

Idealist Thomas T shirt that this is available for fans a -- this a little different people can go to Bob stores. And they can get the new -- Thomas T shirt. And and the benefits via. Proceeds from the sale of the shirt will benefit your slashed foundation tell folks what they can start picking -- up.

This is that the them out today -- since there's sort sort of hope that they're smarter about it. -- the -- there were many Turkish fears of bitterness she is just so boat transport. The dutifully double in the terms weren't with but I won't call marchers I think there to -- just think just the slogan that we live by. Effected but probably get them against my website that you get of there's so they just -- I assert their. The only that you can use for football that you can -- so why is so a lot of times if you would have -- Eric -- that -- you know egotistical not just simple -- it is -- thing you know it's so thinking you can.

The Dallas is still layer. Look at the only muster premier that we got in now and understand as I sat on the back of the of the new humble pie shirts it says. -- humbled or get humbled I understand that comes from your dad.

Yes you know. But there are always felt they you know that this thing was -- always -- onboard computer being the right thing sort of brought up that exceeded our. But who sports you know he he always gave you no messages are different things like there's so. It is that doubles you know staying grounded you know being ground -- would -- not it is -- better. And anyone else is so I think that now most of the -- are -- smoke into the you know. And give yourself to people where you know at the appropriate time to even if you have the turnabout turnout -- a nice way of a lot of very. You -- you -- belt era one it was that it's so it's all about the way you do literally carriers the so well it's which is -- years so being horrible in every day humbling yourself -- that -- that the common to choose -- life experience to -- you -- back down there.

So let me -- pretty much fit in with this team very well this year considering this has always been a team approach in New England this is just a natural transition for you.

It just suddenly and I mean those. But it is like because and they pulled all the more you know. It is very deserving in. I think like this as a team effort -- saint you so you just -- it -- has donated painted try to draw attention to themselves they have been Barrett so. That is those sort of you know in other organizational change work in an uncharacteristic but there's always the team game and we play it that way.

Now the first humble pie T shirts you gave out. Those weren't available to fans where they isn't that's the first time fans can get in on this.

It is the first and you know. Our game you know as the first that it did it and what we did the first I've also make it available with people start -- knuckles or deported you know given -- involves my web site was. You always felt people that are you know Oakland going it and produce something to. Ticket there's there's somebody else's situation in just like anything goes you know that's what we are incapable -- possible so website and order until Burt he you know about that this distorted and they get a mainly about Stewart masters although around it. -- you go to the where aspect it is so it really it really you know if we're thinking about it today people an -- And it's great that people would do that but that is just trying to work that you live but suffice it to someone in cold -- refused. There's so you know these opportunities they need some -- the -- that though oh -- The material the people would do right you know him because again it goes maturity you know -- foundation because imagine our programs is that we do a lot of good things get much. He's -- christmas status so that market the -- that we do.

Now when they brought me my shirt today and I am very proud to wear it. It says right on my box from the kitchen of a Dallas Thomas number 96.

Are sort of cookbook and concerns are certainly applies some -- that you normal -- so you know we've it is you can beat lowly pupils that that they.
