Here’s the bad news. People don’t care about other people.

heres the good news. People care about money. And people will put other people in danger to make that money (ok that’s only good news for the nfl. Not sure what that says about society)

Too much money to be lost to not have a season. Fans in stadiums are hanging on by a lifeline but I doubt that happens. The nfl will use the nba, ufc, mlb etc. as an example and take the best of everything to make a season exist so that they can get the MASSIVE money from tv deals that ultimately drives revenues. 

This is the one time that the argument players always use makes a lot of sense. The average player has 3-5 years to make enough to last a lifetime. Players aren’t  going to give that away. This isn’t the nba where careers are a bit longer and they are figuring it out.

Could hold out hope the season just gets pushed to early next year and wrapped up by April/May.

 

Swear if we're not allowed to suck this year and get a high draft pick, the NFL needs to open up potential draft picks to a FA style system.  Let players choose who they want to sign with for this one year, rookies see opportunity here, profit. Obviously would never happen, but let me dream.

There will be an NFL season. Unless you start hearing about players dying, itll happen. Too much money on the line. The deaths/death rate is going in the right direction. Some of the states who peaked with new cases are starting to level off.

    • lol, that second part is quite literally one of the dumbest things ever. Having or not having guaranteed contracts has absolutely nothing to do with how much these billionaires have to pay.  Because there is a hard cap and a minimum cap spend requirement, and teams either use their cap or roll it over to use it all the next year, so the owners have to pay the same amount of money in the end no matter what. Having fully guaranteed contracts in the NFL would only hurt salary cap management, and thus would end up screwing over the team and its fan base when teams kiss on signings as they take up cap room that is needed to improve the roster. Look at the Browns with Watson, they gave him the fully guaranteed deal and all it’s doing is sucking up massive cap space now.  If they hadn’t done that, the owner would still be paying the same amount of money each year as that cap space would still be used elsewhere. If you want to argue for fully guaranteed contracts because the players deserve it, that’s an entirely different argument and a fair one to discuss.  But anyone against fully guaranteed deals isn’t doing it to argue for the billionaire owners.

    • Ryabkin could be the steal of the draft, he was a Top 10 pick heading into last season and had a rough year.  Lots of GMs passed on him because of that and his workouts. Pick has really high upside and Svech should be able to translate Rod tearing his arse a new one for making dumb plays since Svech has had several years of it.  🤣😂
