Lockout question

I'm sure this has been asked before, but don't flame me....anyway, I understand that coaches cannot talk to players...vice versa. Who is enforcing this? Basically, how would anyone even know if coaches and players are communicating. I'm sure that they are around the league...it's not like there is a group of people watching every phonecall or text that every player and coach make.

:confused::jc::confused:

any rule bending on either side would be ammo for the lawsuit...tattle tales would be running rampant.

the players are on their own...just like they wanted to be.

I can't wait to see what kind of league they throw together this year, or next, or whenever they get their stadiums built and infrastructure established.

The coaches very much have a side in this battle. They understand what it is to be a loyal employee and do as they are told. Don't think meetings followed with memos have not filtered down to the entire non player staff. The players wanted the legal system involved and if a coach (essentially an owner as seen by the court) breaks the writ that is out there now he is gone faster than Sal Alosi and will look even dumber.

I cant for PSL holders to spend thousands of dollars to watch Pat White play against Danny Wuerffel

    • The Falcons have 2 significant offensive line injuries to start the 2025 season. Right tackle Kaleb Mcgary (who is the blindside protector for Penix since he is left-handed) is going to miss significant time, and it's looking more like it may be all season. https://www.nbcsports.com/nfl/profootballtalk/rumor-mill/news/falcons-expect-kaleb-mcgary-to-miss-significant-time https://x.com/BKsquared7/status/1959285822236107013. Also, the top backup and swing tackle, Storm Norton (cool name BTW) is having ankle surgery and may miss half the season. https://www.nbcsports.com/nfl/profootballtalk/rumor-mill/news/falcons-ot-storm-norton-out-6-8-weeks-after-ankle-surgery I don't root for injuries, but its also hard to be too sympathetic given how badly injuries have hit us in recent years. We definitely need to get that W in week 3 for our home opener at BOA. Despite our collective frustration at not being able to attend TC and then having boring preseason games, ultimately the most important objective of the preseason is to enter Week1 healthy, and we have at least done that. Hopefully the depth we think we have at Oline either shines through or isn't needed. Many other teams are in a bad spot with their offensive lines before the season even starts. For once, we aren't in that situation.
    • That roster was billed as a super smart and strong unit for a young QB….until he sucked though.   it didn’t have superstars but it had proven vets that checked well all the safe boxes and it was universally agreed the Panthers were putting him into position to succeed. BY just doesn’t fit a traditional O because he isn’t built like a traditional QB.  And he still doesn’t.   CJ Stroud would have had more success here than Bryce with that cast.   CJ just has the tools that fit the NFL more easily.  Young can find success but I have always argued it would take a Bryce centric plan (which we have never attempted IMO) 
    • looks like the Lions and Bangles should forget about the playoffs, trade everyone they can, and start over.
