I'll worry about that next March. That's not for this year.

I mean technically we don’t have to worry about it haha .. but I’m sure the Fo is always mindful of these things, regardless of the time of year

With the current system, the players making the most money are not really the ones "killing themselves." I think the league needs to cap individual player contracts, but also raise minimums including practice squad players and expand rosters. What percentage would be a good number for individual players as a maximum, I'm not sure.

It's the guys fighting to stick on the bottom of rosters that play through things they probably shouldn't. The top players don't need more money any more than the owners do. They're also the ones that get borderline ridiculous protections on the field.

The players making the most money from their team are often the ones making the most on endorsements.

40 million to play a game is a little ridiculous. Especially when most of those 1%ers are the ones least "killing themselves."

Should owners put more money into post-football care? Sure.

Making the rich richer can be an argument against players, too.

This surprises me. I thought his next step would be coaching, probably still will be.

I figure he's able to temporarily keep the seat warm over there.

That’s a good move for both parties. McCown can still be an adequate backup type, especially with their talent
