Are you really that dumb? Nobody cares about the possibility of Patrick Peterson being paid like they do with Cam because nobody outside a few LSU retards would put him in Cam's class as a player



Yea no way would PP ever become the highest paid cornerback in the NFL. No one would ever pay for PP.

Just to play devil's advocate, had Bert Jones been drafted by the Saints, there would have been many down here invested in him 'as a pro.'

Cam led his college team to a NC, then ended up playing a few hundred miles to the east away. Alabama has no pro team, they pull for the Saints, Titans, Falcons, or Panthers.

Even though Archie played at Ole Miss, all Saints fans and most Saints fans who were LSU fans, loved him.

It's simple really. It's retribution for the shite AU fans had to contend. I can't fathom why it's such a surprise that AU fans retaliate now and champion him.

It was so clever how you took the OP and turned it into a false statement.

Highest paid corner in the NFL, three times as many all pro appearances as Cam, but yeah no one is worried about paying Peterson...

I wouldn't even watch the NFL if it weren't for former Auburn players. We don't have a pro team. I pull for the Braves and Hawks because I went to games growing up. I never went to Falcons games, so I have no attachment to them.

The fact remains that only LSU retards would put Patrick Peterson on the same level as Cam

you mean first time All-Pro in 2015 Cam? And Vince Young was ROY. So were RGIII, Sam Bradford, Percy Harvin, etc. So what?

Last time I saw Peterson on the same field as Cam, he was getting turned all kinds of directions by Ted Ginn. Much like Cam, he chose an inopportune time to have a bad game.

PP is sensational, but he's not immune to the occasional gaffe. Cam and Greg Olsen carried a mediocre-at-best supporting cast to the Super Bowl and the train finally ran out of steam. The Panthers in all actuality should have been a .500 club and they wound up 17-2 in the Super Bowl. That isn't too shabby.

Auburn made him the face of their program. Gotta take the good with the bad.

Wonder how he reconciles his little bitch fits with the Auburn Creed?

The difference is that Louisiana has an NFL team and many LSU fans are also Saints fans. Sure, I follow former Tigers in the NFL but when the Cardinals are playing the Saints, I hope Peterson and Mathieu get torched by Drew
