If NFL and NFLPA cared about player safety

never even played college but I did play texas state so I traveled and we did use some college stadiums. our own was grass. and in the summer heat it was patchy, dead, and sometimes prickly.

but we always preferred grass 100%. any fool who has played on either knows grass always wins. as someone with flat feet I was always more sore after turf. It’s not nice to ligaments. Literally no player ever prefers turf.

When the NFLPA did nothing about Vontaze Burfict and fat albert stomping on the heads of players, I no longer carried about their opinions/statements.

 

Heres some hard to shallow facts- the NFL is a young mans league. Like 98%(making up but go check yourself) are like 30 and/or younger. Just about all of them have played on fake grass since HS....guess what they prefer?? the fake crap. Im a old fossil compared and still believe a hyrid of super grass ______ and synthetic is the way. But the young ones grew up with fake stuff and are normalized to it. Old NFL boomers are the ones pleading for grass...

The fake stuff has vastly improved over the last ten years, but it was a ACL/achilles hell at the start.....

    • Wanting that type of play and being okay with paying $55 million a season for it are two entirely different things. If Bryce were to become the same player Purdy has been, then he would surpass my expectations of him and I'd be okay with him as our QB of the future (and again, I've long been one of the bigger anti Bryce people here who doesn't think he is capable of being our long term solution). But in no world would I be okay with paying him THAT kind of money, paying an average starter elite money is just a terrible decision.
    • I don't think they can overcome that mistake. Hell Lance was a hiccup compared to this. He isn't going to be able to carry that price tag and now he is going to have to do just that. Lol. The NFL is so dumb sometimes.
    • So, one could say that T-Mac is quicker than someone of his size should be and while he might not be quite as fast as Evans in the 40, he's more athletic than Evans. If only someone, anyone, could have seen that in his tape and mentioned that on here, hmmmmmmm In all seriousness, hearing he tested in the 89th percentile in that drill at his size is crazy impressive.  Just tried to look up the times of the top WRs in the league right now, most don't show at time for that, but I did see Chase ran his in 7 seconds flat. I honestly don't know how true this is, but I do remember seeing one breakdown of his tape and the person said he has quiet and efficient feet.  That he's really good at using the minimal steps possible to make his cuts and because of that, it actually makes him look slower to the human eye because you don't see all the quick chop steps that the guys like Tyreek would use in their running. I'm still in a state of disbelief that he's a Panther and it might not fully hit me until week 1 and I see him out there making plays for us, still feels like Goodell is going to just be like, "YOU GOT PUNKED!!!  hahaha, he's a Cowboy now, suck it"
