I don't disagree about the hypocrisy from the league. But if the season were shortened again, revenues would go down which means player salaries go down. How many current players would vote for a shorter season \ reduction in pay?
Hurts would probably even overthrow Carmichael.
After that win last night, I bet the Lions wish they didn't have a bye. If anything, this could hurt their momentum and give them time to drink the Kool Aid. Maybe, they'll go to Cancun or Cabo....
They make up for it by implementing cream puff practice schedules
You misspelled beat down
Eagles on a bye too I think it’s stupid to have it this early.
I get your thought process but I think it becomes a little more complicated with games on Mon,Thur night games as well as international games.
The players don’t seem to mind 2 or 3 players taking up 100 million or more of the cap so it appears they do whatever the union bosses say.
It is hard to mind complete falsehoods.
What falsehoods are they
its going to be another game just like the Saints. they will score on every possession through end of 3rd quarter. it will be 35 -9 by then and game over.
There are no two or three players taking up $100m against the cap. Not even close.
Dak at 60 CD at 35 add in 15 for ZM but I guess you don’t count dead money rolled into void years. It hurts players financially when a few are getting a majority of the money and that is not what unions are supposed to do they are supposed to protect the majority of players financially but that’s not how it works for the NFLPA.
That's not their cap hit...
Plus I got news for the op, bye or not Detroit is way better than the Cowboys
I understand but juggling the cap it still has to be paid hence dead money. The way a GM deals with it is different but my point is paying now or when the players aren’t on the team still greatly affects the lower 40 players. It’s supposed to be about team but it’s now the brotherhood me me with the better players. I’m not saying everyone should be paid the same but one guy making 60 million and other guys making 800 thousand to 1.5 million is wrong. The players are forced into a union who really only cares about the too 5-10 percent of the players. Just my opinion.
