It's not my belief that the lockout will drag out so long that we will actually lose games, but I must admit to the possibility that it could.

In a worst-case-scenario like this, would you be okay with a partial season, or are you an "all or nothing" type?

Even if we have a 1 game season, I'm still going to watch and be 'ok' with it. I'd like to say that I won't watch to teach the owners a lesson, but they couldn't give sh!t either way. So 1 game or 18, I'm going to check out the action. I actually had fun pulling for Denver to win late last season, and we might have a similar situation next season.

If it becomes clear that they are going to miss games, the US government should intervene... Charlotte businesses shouldn't have to miss out on 64 million dollars of revenue generated by the 8 NFL home games because these spoiled children can't figure out how to split up 9 billion.

i would rather win a tainted superbowl than have a lockout.

You'd get poo for it and no respect at all for it. If we are talking 1 or 2 games obviously a huge difference than half the season.

But how prepared are teams really going to be getting into it mid season? Sounds like a disaster and some bullpoo fan wise and even more BS coming from a paying customer viewpoint.

yea, if there aren't any camps this year, the whole season is gonna be a crazy ass clusterf*ck.

which is part of the reason I don't understand drafting a QB this year. You aren't gonna be able to work with him, you aren't gonna be able to start him.

This will end by the draft. She will hear arguments on briefs she has already read and mostly made up her mind on based on law. within two weeks of this hearing next week she will rule.

My guess is she will rule the decertification is a sham, which it is, and therefor she will lift the lockout and have the league conduct business under 2010 rules and order both back to the table or else.

A week after the draft Free agency will start say on the 29th.

This season will will get played one way or the other. Too much money at stake and too many jobs and economy's affected outside just the owners and players.

I do expect her to rip some ass on both sides.

No season. Near impossible for a new staff just to be able to walk on field with a new team. Half aszed product at full price. No thanks. The difference in preparation between an Atalnta and San Fran would be night and day. Too many new staffs would know nothing about there team and wouldn't have installed the offense or d

      if  ANYONE actually goes & looks at the FACTS on rookie Qb's after 2 full seasons as a starter in the NFL & they are still well below average do they rarely ever actually become top tier Qb's & instead most likely either do not recieve a second contract & or become life long backups...just saying

      So he became GM and decided not to address the weakness in the QB room following one of the worst rookie QB performances in NFL history?  There were options last season other than signing Dalton to a 2 year deal. Brissett and Jones by a wide margin, both of whom outplayed Bryce, Wilson, Winston, hell even Rivers off the couch was more exciting at the QB position. The time to address the failure in the QB room was last year but instead people on the Huddle cheered when we brought Dalton back then cheered when we were able to get anything for him after they finally realized he was washed up like a few of had been saying all along and got poo'd for even mentioning.  This year, the options were more limited obviously, especially since we lost Icky. It changed the dynamic of our draft. I think we were stuck this year keeping Bryce, but i still think giving him a 5th year option for what has amounted to replacement worthy performance was the wrong move. Why guarantee 25m if you're planning to replace him? You think he's going to want to be a bridge QB? Hell no. He's going to want out and we'll end up cutting him if he has another lackluster season because no one is trading for him with that price tag.  Were there better options as far as production available. A couple. Were there guys available with more physical tools than Bryce, Pickett or Grier, you damn well better believe there were. I've been saying all along, you always keep looking for your 1b. Bryce has yet to prove he can be a starter. Keep looking for someone who may. Put competition in camp. Let the best QB lead the team. Stop settling for less than mediocre.
