NFL commissioner Roger Goodell made clear on Wednesday that a decision for him to start cancelling preseason games because of the lockout is approaching.

"We don't have a date, but obviously that time is coming," Goodell said as owners wrapped up their spring meetings (via PFT).

"Obviously we would prefer to get a negotiated agreement so we don't have to make those decisions."

I wouldn't call a threatening to cancel games that nobody wants to watch or play dealing with someone.

It's a process. Goodell and owners are setting the timeline. If the time for cutting pre-season game one is soon then the time for cutting reg-season game one is soon + 30 days.

These guys need to get to the table and the players need to get a counter on the table ASAP.

Until the players get a proposal on the table I am fully backing the owners.

And I am sure they are very excited about that. "Hello Jerry Jones... this is Jerry Richardson. I have some good news and some bad news. Bad news is that we lost another court ruling today However we just found out that teeray from the Huddle is backing us. Sooo things are looking pretty good." :lol:

      The running back situation....

      By strato · Posted

      Basically agree.  He is the one of that bunch that offers upgraded pass catching along with he is supposed to be kind of special.   Then you have the OL and the ideas that if they perform you can have JAG backs and still do well. So okay we could be fine.  But Brooks is important and to me that receiving element sets him apart.  So there sure is something riding on him.     What strikes me as incongruent is people over in Atlanta or those that follow them look at Penix with a third surgery and act like it is no big deal.      And we are on pins and needles over Brooks.  Either they should worry a lot more or we should worry a lot less.

      I usually go a game or two optimist over the consensus here but this is too early for me to say. I need to see some players on the field.  I am not feeling real optimistic though.

      Okay as a ‘take CJ’ fan I actually don’t obsess over CJ and Houston, contrary to the narrative.  But I thought I picked up some noise that his OL left a lot to be desired.    Not a single Beyce supporter would judge him harshly if he had a crappy OL. We all know that.    So be fair about it.  A QB needs to be protected.  Especially a guy that gets to his spot and wants to finish the play from there. Which CJ is.
