I doubt if the NFLPA agrees to the new cba.

If they turn it down there's going to be a work stoppage.

I think they will

5 billion is a lot of money

Player reps from the league’s 32 teams will do a conference call tomorrow. They will vote and if they get a 2/3 in favor, it goes to the league wide membership. It only needs a simple majority for approval from them.

I think it passes. No one wants to kill the golden goose.

The new playoff rule and 17-game schedule are dumb.

Just double up the Monday night package like they do opening week. Switching 16 games to prime time would be worth more than 17 additional Sunday afternoon games.

Also, you could limit the Thursday night package to the center of the season to correspond with the byes and have those be your international games (when teams have more time to get there and back). Make them bigger games with the same price tag for 10 games plus opening night.

<blockquote class="twitter-tweet"><p lang="en" dir="ltr">How would players be compensated for a 17th game if they signed contracts based on a 16-game schedule? Basically, under proposed CBA, they&#39;d get an extra game check, but it&#39;d be capped at $250,000, per sources. So the highest-paid players would play for less than usual.</p>&mdash; Tom Pelissero (@TomPelissero) <a href="https://twitter.com/TomPelissero/status/1230613879912308737?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw">February 20, 2020</a></blockquote> <script async src="https://platform.twitter.com/widgets.js" charset="utf-8"></script>


Why would players ever agree to that

Chiefs player rep is Dustin Colquitt with Patrick Mahomes as the alternate.

Players will eventually agree no matter what.
Jocks are a dime a dozen. They like their 6 and 7 digit paydays. They can't beat billionaires no matter how hard they try.

So our two mvp are repping the chiefs nice!

I agree when it goes to player vote it will pass. A lot more average players in league then stars. They will love the Minimum Salary increase.

Double MVPs!!! Pat should agree to it tho. Sooner it gets agreed to sooner he gets paid. Once the deal is signed I expect a deal to be down for Mahomes before he even has time to fly from New York to KC

Hopefully their planes crash into each when leaving.

If the players agree to that they are dumb

Not sure it means that much to highest paid players.

Total guaranteed $$
Signing bonus
Money up front

Imagine that’s what they care about most

Not a chance in hell the players would agree to this.
