Julius Peppers playing 'like he's in his 20s'

Posted Jan 9, 2017
Julius Peppers was perhaps the best player on the field for the Packers defense in a 38-13 wild-card win over the New York Giants. Along with his sack, Peppers hit Eli Manning two more times and batted down two passes. Whether Peppers was an interior rusher or coming from the edge, the Giants couldn’t block him. Not bad for man 10 days from his 37th birthday. (Sheboygan Press)
