NFL motion for appeal of stay denied

Usually I'd agree, and probably would have before Judge Nelson put out that massive opinion, but I'm not so sure it's going to be overturned. She made a strong case as to why the lockout isn't legal, and outlined what the 8th Circuit would have to disagree with in order to overrule her decision.

If I had to place percentages on it, I'd give it a 35-40% chance it gets overturned. Really wouldn't be too surprised either way.

I'm of the same opinion that you are now. I was just saying what the owners thought process was going in... which I'm sure was changed with Judge Nelson's ruling as well.

Ah, you mean what their thought process was going into the whole legal business? Yeah, they probably thought the 8th Circuit would save their asses even if the first judge ruled against them.

teams probably won't do anything since they think they are still right to have a lockout and won't undermine themselves by doing stuff..nelson said they aren't obligated to sign free agents but i guess that doesn't mean they can't..although if they are truly a united front they won't sign anyone if they don't know how much to pay them..

Yeah, this is what I would assume.

But all it would take would be one owner to sign a free agent, and the whole thing would come crumbling down, right?

    • For Bryce’s obvious shortcomings (bad pun), there is upside to his game. This isn’t being a homer or apologists, but I like to consider myself fair in criticism.  He’s far tougher than I ever thought he’d be. I really thought homie would have been broken in half by now. I don’t know how he’s not, but he’s not.  He is prone to turning the ball over early in games which digs a huge hole the team is not built to come back from, but dude DOES come up with crucial first down in crucial situations. It’s NEVER pretty, but he just kind of has the shining. He gets bailed out LOTS, and the team still loses games because of him, but he’s a bit of an enigma. He’s a turnover machine that is clutch in big moments.  He’s a smart/elusive cat. He kind of has to be with his limitations. His audibles are almost always correct and he understands coverages. I don’t see him getting fooled too frequently. His turnovers are almost never the ‘damnit Jake/Cam!’ brand we have been accustomed to. They are ALWAYS due to his size/strength limitations.  Strip sacks that shouldn’t be. Picks that happened because he just don’t got that NFL arm. He is still prone to panicking and the wheels can and do fall off at a much higher rate than his peers.  The team is winning on the backs of the defense, running game and special teams… but they’re winning, and unbelievably 1 game behind Tampa. As long as this is happening and Bryce doesn’t go full meltdown, Dave is going to keep him in. He is not getting pulled. 
    • This was a terrible podcast. A bunch of uninformed homers that had worse takes than the bottom 10% of the Huddle. I listened to a handful of podcasts this past offseason in search of new Panthers material since John Ellis doesn't do his pod anymore and The 4 Man Rush don't either. Immediately deleted it after the handful I listened to. Truly terrible.
    • The NFC South was so bad it sent a team with a losing record to the Playoffs that year. Wilks had players playing hard at the end but let’s not act like that was a good season. That season hurts even more now that we see in hindsight how good our QB situation was. We just didn’t know it.
