Well today is the deadline for the CBA once again and it seems that today we will know for sure what will happen. Then again I thought that last week and they just extended it.

So what do yo think will happen at the deadline today?

Agreement

Lockout

Union decertifys

another extension

D Smith will get in front of the cameras and say

"i am just here on behalf of the players and fans that dig this game"

"Look at me, look at me, i might run for office someday. Sorry, i have been in front of the camera for only 45 minutes, but i have to go to the K & W with my family"

Was just messing with ya, when I first looked there was no poll, just the list of options - now I see it.

yeah I thought that might of happened, I guess when you make a poll it post your thread and then adds the poll when you are done.

Your probably not far off. I believe Smith plays a huge role in the reason why there hasn't been an agreement yet.

I would also like to post a poll about which side do you support the players or owners.

I would choose owners because the players already make enough money as it is. The owners make money also but they are responsible for creating many jobs for the team, stadium etc. I don't like the 18 game idea because more than likely it will be added on in the winter time with horrible weather. I don't think it will cause as many problems as the players make it out to be, the reason why is because they will shorten preseason games by two and the players are acting like 2 games will shorten careers, but its just two damn games which means more money for them and the owners. I also believe there must be a rookie cap. If they do get a cap it will help save teams a lot of money and cap room. If there isn't any rookie cap then I will be very disappointed.

One thing I would love to see happen is to see the NFL make a minor league for each team like D league in the NBA or MLB or NHL minor leagues. It would bring a lot of money and it would give players a chance to play and possibly make it to the NFL. It would give teams the chance to sign undrafted FA and see what they can do on the field, and I believe it would bring a lot of extra cash. Imagine how many star players could be found or developed through a minor league system. We would see a lot of players that never had a chance get a shot to make it to the NFL. We already have a practice squad, why not make it bigger and actually let them play.

Only reason there hasn't been an agreement is because they can't figure out how to split $9 billion...don't get it twisted....it's got nothing to do with Smith or Goodell....it's got to do with $

I think thats BS, The players are so damn greedy and want soo much cash its actually kind of sad. Do the players think that just the 32 owners get the rest of the cash? I mean they have to pay coaches, Scouts, Stadium workers ect and all the players care about is how they are going to afford there multi million dollar house. I wish they could lock out the players and get replacement players because I would be just as happy to watch them play with there hearts rather then watch a bunch of money hungry babies play.

      2027: Sharing my thoughts on the cap without a lotta research

      By SmokinwithWilly · Posted

      As much as I despise Billy B, his philosophy on QBs is how I would approach things if I were a GM. You always keep looking for your next starter.  He has Bledsoe, who got injured and his backup ended up being the GOAT. Even while he had that going, he kept getting his next guy and developing them. When Brady got hurt, Cassel stepped in and went 11-5 and they missed the wild card by dumb luck. Who knows how far they would have gone if they had gotten in. Jimmy Gs career started in NE. There were others, but he always kept looking.  You can't be afraid to keep looking for your next starter, but it looks like we're afraid to look for more than a marginal one. If you're going to offer a $25m contract with incentives, that screams marginal QB. It also screams you're just a transition until we find our guy. After a 10 or 11 win season, he's not accepting that offer. And then you're in a Daniel Jones situation. Do you pay for a year of success and pray it wasn't a one year wonder?  To this point, Bryce has really produced nothing, yet for whatever reason, our FO has not even sniffed at the idea that we need a real QB room with real QBs. Dalton was never starter potential, Plummer was a joke. KP certainly isn't, neither is Grier.  Our approach to the QB room needs to be one of strength not fear. Bring in guys who can compete or who you think can compete. This is THE elite position, in an elite sport, paid premium salary, where production matters. Either you produce or you can lose your job. It's not mean, it's just the reality of the position.  And I'm really just tired of our candy ass approach to it.

      If you plug Bryce onto the Pro Bowl roster you might have a chance to compete for a SB. If he's surrounded by top tier talent with a top tier defense on the other side, a field flipping punter, and a kicker good from 60+ you might have a chance. But that means you basically have to recreate Saban's Bama in the NFL and that's impossible... and Bryce couldn't win a championship in that environment either. What the Panthers didn't realize when they got so obsessed with his "PG mentality" was that what they were looking st was a "barely checks the box PG". The basketball equivalent of Bryce would be an undersized PG with marginal athleticism who can make the basic plays but adds nothing to the team in terms of elevating the overall team. Not a great shooter, not a great defender, not a great driver. Just a guy who can basically get you into the offense and be a matador on defense. Basically a placeholder while you look to upgrade the PG position.
