just get rid of it.

Yeah..Just so we remember, the cap is roughly 50% of revenue. What this is saying is that revenue is expected to drop by $140m per team next year (or about for round numbers). When you look at the $70 million per team cap reduction, that is already with the owners taking a $70m hit.
The cap IS going down. The owners aren't just going to eat a $140m per team loss. I have no idea how you even manage that. A lot of the cap hits were already paid. You can't just cut everyone's salary. Every team would likely be way over that number.
As far as Dak, man his agent is an idiot. He would have been much better off to take a huge signing bonus and put it in his pocket than deal with getting murdered next year. Dallas won't be able to give him the $37m tag and no team will have enough capspace to offer a huge contract. France is a freaking moron and cost multiple of his clients massive amounts of money because he didn't read the papers.
Do you guys not understand that every single owner in the nfl "LOVES!" the salary cap?
I don't think I could be a fan of a team that I hate the owner with a passion
I didn't say it would be simple. The billionaire vs millionaire bouts often arent.
But players dont want to be cut in massive droves, and teams dont want to lose their players, and the league doesnt want teams using guys that dont belong in the league just because they play cheap.
They will have to work something out.
Sorry?
Now Jerrah should have known about a World Wide Pandemic and included provisions in contracts to account for it?
Now Jerrah is at fault becuz Dak is overstepping what he is worth?.......
No paying customers? They will have a 10 game season and maybe 2 rounds of p!layoffs and a SB........
.....Personally I think they should just stop the season and wait until the vaccine appears in 2021.
billionares didnt get to be that way by always losing large amounts of money
I hope the cap goes to zero and then maybe the NFL WILL start thinking about their pregame policies and other social stances that are going to run off Ppl like me.Itll be worked out.
Neither the players or owners want this to happen.
So, borrowing against the future cap is the way to solve this problem? That's not how these guys made billions, trust me. If anything, they'll take the loss and write-off future profits. Imho anyway.The owners are not going to let their money drop. All that is going to happen is borrowing against future cap years increases so that in the end the owners still come out ahead. If it needs to be 70 million to keep the cap flat that will probably suggest a relatively flat cap for the next 3-4 years.
Is it really possible that so many billionaires never even considered the possibility of a temporary downturn in revenue and how to deal with it?
I mean with all these huge guaranteed salaries and all, and they've never even considered a plan B just in case?
Wow.

Oh, it's not that difficult if you have been a fan for 20 years prior to that owner. At that point, the emotional investment is so high, some fans may not be able to quit if they wanted to. Immediately, I can think of one specific example.I don't think I could be a fan of a team that I hate the owner with a passion

If this was at ALL a hangup in Prescott negotiations, everyone involved blew it.
Perfect opportunity to simply make his salary a percentage of whatever the cap is, and the greedy agent would have had no complaint about not being able to cash in on a rising cap in that all too important year five.
And people actually thought Mahommes was being “team friendly”.If the cap is flat for the next four years or so, I don’t think you will see any record braking contracts for the next few years. It appears that the Mahomes contract is based on what’s going on with cap. All the big money he will receive is down the road. The Dak deal was not completed because of the uncertainty of the cap.
