So you think they are just going to willfully bend over for 18 games yet not get anything else they want?

Personally I think they'll get more revenue but I dunno how much, they should be shooting for 49/50.
But some of those other issues I doubt enough players care for it to matter, the franchise tag affects such a small amount of people, the rookie deals, I doubt any of that is changed. But they are going to have to be willing to give in on the 18 games to get anything. |

There's way too much money at stake for either side to fully dig in. I expect an 18 game season to be a major point for the owners and some of the other stuff discussed in an earlier thread for the players.
BTW, when do the TV contracts come up? |

It's incredible how much bargaining capital they burned to not have to do as many contact practices and get rid of 2 a days. I mean ****ing hell, that was just letting lazy run the show.

Title should be NFLPA.

The real problem I see is that the entire galaxy knows that DeMaurice Smith got woodshedded the last time and, given that he sounds like a colossal **** every time he’s on anywhere I’m afraid that he thinks he’s going to “get them back”. Even though he has virtually no leverage. |

Seems like injuries have gone up since they dropped two a days.

There are enough players getting hurt and being lost for a season with only 16 games. I love watching football but I'd accept going back to 14 to help the players stay healthy. I know that will never happen. If they go to 18 games, then make it mandatory that each player has a personal bye twice each year. That will never happen either but I am convinced the players are physically challenged enough as it is.

Figures, we get a franchise QB and NOW the league is in danger of missing a season or twelve.
