Bezos wanted to buy the Commanders but Dan Snyder wouldn’t sell to him for political reasons.

He’s now had his eyes on the Seahawks because they’re likely to be sold in the next few years.

NFL owners really want Bezos to own an NFL franchise.  Amazon is coming at the NFL hard with Thursday night Prime games and likely more to follow-suit.

Hopefully Jeff is seeing the current train-wreck that is Carolina along with today’s debacle(s) and throws Tepp a sweet “make 50% on your initial investment and get out of Dodge” type of deal.  

Best case scenario for all, IMO.

I think there are some issues with owning a company that broadcasts games while owning a team.

“Jeff Bezos didn't bid on the Washington Commanders, but that might not be the end of a possible NFL relationship.

According to Pro Football Talk's Peter King, the league is "lobbying Bezos quietly, but hard" to purchase a team. Furthermore, King seems a good opportunity arising with the Seattle Seahawks likely the next franchise on the market.”

I don’t doubt that the league wants him but there may be some flack from some owners about him having stakes on both sides of the fence.

Correct me if I’m wrong, but wouldn’t Bezos owning a team and being an exclusive broadcast partner a huge CoI?

I don’t know how he’d do it but this has been widely know for a while now.  Maybe Amazon gives up the Thursday night games, maybe they get sold to someone else, or maybe the NFL just puts some terms in an agreement (Panthers can only be on Thursday night once every two years, etc?)

If there was any doubt it could be done, I’d think it would’ve been brought up when he pursued the Commanders and now the Seahawks.  Just sayin’

Well Bezos has enough money to make people bend the rules or create loopholes

      Disturbing

      I can say that I have defended Canales because I get that they are doing all they can to keep from looking like idiots for drafting Bryce, from the trade up to signing $150m guards to drafting XL and Brooks etc---nothing seems to work.  And Hiring Canales was part of the Bryce Young rehab program, so so he can't really decide to "move on."  That has to come from Morgan and Tepper. Personally, I think Bryce is due for an injury.  He is small, he is not thick, and he has been a LOT more healthy than most any other QB has who has endured so much pressure.  The thing that bothers me is this---Bryce really does not go through his progressions quickly.  He locks on to his presnap read and stays locked onto him for too long--he seems to fail to anticipate the WR/TE's positioning on the play before the cut--for example, if the WR is running a dig and the CB has his back to the inside of the field, he should be open for a second or less just after the cut.  He seems to wait until the cut has been made before deciding, then checking down quickly while moving in the pocket. OL:  There seems to be a lack of communication--is that on Mays?  Watch this team presnap--they seem a bit confused at times.   I can almost predict the success rate of the play by watching the center and QB before the snap.

      Eric Collins Calling First NFL Game (ours)

      Anyone else remember back in 2010 when Fox piloted having music under the in-game replays during one of Carolina's games? Not the commercial bumpers but the actual replay clips that the announcers would talk over. Pretty sure it was vs the 49ers. And it was terrible. Point being, Carolina continues being so bad that we get the networks trying things out during their games.

      Is it bad I found this video more hilarious than pathetic? I am still laughing at that one play where half the people on the field ran into each other and Bryce still couldn't see Chuba wide open... Also laughing at Cade blocking nobody and somehow losing his cleat Man this offense is a poo show
