If anyone blames the owners then either they are a player (not playa) or have no clue what is going on.

Idiots like Jeff Kessler will ruin football all for the sake of Litigation. I don't know about the rest of you but, if they were to change football to this guys vision. Many franchises would either be defunct or so uncompetitive that no decent player would want to go play there.

It will be a sad day when and if it ever comes to that. I am sure the NFL will lose alot of fans and football will become Baseball in the fall.

who was it that walked away from the CBA? thats who fault it is.

Even worse, who walked away from the table without negotiating in good faith.

The decertification was going to happen whether or not the owners put a good deal on the table or not. From what I read it wasn't a bad one.

That in itself is why the Owners will win in a couple of weeks.

    • I can't help but think that you are equating physical attributes alone with wins. I don't subscribe to that thought. No one will argue that Young has a strong arm, but he makes up for it in other ways. The real limitation for him is he needs good route runners with great hands. That's why Young was so good at the end of the 24 season. Thielen and Coker were perfect receivers for him and he had his best games with them. Not having them to start the 25 season hurt. Look at the first 10 games in 25 with a rookie receiver and no Coker and then look at the final 7 games with a more experienced rookie and Coker back and there is a telling difference in Young's performance. Prior to week 10, Young had 1 game with a QB rating above 100, 2 games with a rating above 90 and 6 games with a rating below 90. In the last 7 games with Coker back, Young had 3 games with a QB rating above 100, 2 games with a rating above 90 and only 2 games with a rating below 90. The tools a QB has to work with matter more than their arm strength.  To go back to Darnold and Stafford, yes they both have great arm strength but neither had much success with that alone. As I already pointed out, Stafford, even with a canon for an arm, only had 4 winning seasons in his first 12 years. It was only when he went to the right environment that he had true success.
    • I don't love this role for him if I'm being totally honest The pregame show is much more flash than substance and doesn't seem like the right fit for what Luke would bring to the table, and that's his vision of the game. I'd like to see him do something where it more involves him breaking down film and explaining what he's seeing out there, as he sees the game in a way very few ever have.
