Serious question - can someone express to me the thought that you should be compensated for work you don’t perform? Maybe if we were talking about normal people here but what reasoning is there to pay a football player for not playing football?

The sensible thing here appears to be what they are doing, if you opt out you don’t lose a year of your contract and that contractual amount rolls over to next year.

Players seem to always find a way to make me side with billionaire owners. I was hating on elite before it was cool, you fascist...  I wished all the complaining was not posted to social media, keeping anything private now is rare.

Good question. I think force majuere provisions often works against the worker or insured. So if my house gets destroyed in a riot my homeowners policy might deny it. The owners could have said if games get cancelled due to Covid 19 the CBA is void or something. Not sure what Tre was hoping for.

    • Purdy only passed for 127 yards week 18 and then only passed for 108 yards in the playoffs. In those two games he had 0 TD's and 2 INT's and a fumble. Mayes in the Superbowl had a total of 63 yards with 0 TDS at the 13 minute mark in the fourth quarter. He only had success when the Seahawks went into prevent defense. Philip Rivers only had 127 total yards in week 15. Boomer with the Vikings had 126 yards and 4 INTS in week 13. Cousins had 167 yrds week 14 and while it was over 150 yards, he also had 2 INTs with 0 TDs. Yeah Young didn't have a good game but neither did any of these other QBs. And while he had the lowest yardage, he was the only other QB that at least had a TD - Philips had the other.
    • He has to have a great year not a great few games...probably gonna have to finish with a winning record too for the first time as well. Front office has all the leverage, havent got much on the return for trading up in the draft no matter what bryce fans want to say. They have no reason to offer an extension right now. All the talk about his personality is just deflection off the talk about money. You can be the nicest guy in the world, it doesnt win games or make you a top 10 QB. They know that, spending all that money on the O line and drafting multiple offensive players in the first round of past drafts says a QB should have better production than what we have seen so far. We have to lean on a run game more to be productive in games rather than a qb we traded up to no.1 for. You can easily draft a more talented QB on a cheaper contract and get the same results bryce has given you so far. Thats the truth.
    • I will go out on a limb and say this was the biggest win since 06.
