Eagles and Falcons should jump on this I don't care who it is, I'm not giving up millions and millions of dollars just because my coach told me to. What a stupid take. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
G Posted July 29, 2020 Share Posted July 29, 2020 I think a lot of the big guys on the lines should opt out. so teams with smaller lines will probably win. That WON'T be my Raiders. LOL Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah I wouldn't doubt it either but the money difference is so huge with him that I'd tell her, I'll see you 3 weeks after our season ends and live in a hotel during season. I've got lots of firefighter friends who live in tents, tool sheds in their back yards. Wife leaves dinner out and they waive to Dad from the windows. Football players who would make millions just have to stay away for almost half a year and get their families some great gifts. Frontline will adapt over 2-3 years. If our line loses Hudson it won't be pretty. Devey is good enough but Hudson is a beast and makes it all work.

candyman93 Posted July 29, 2020 Share Posted July 29, 2020 Larry Warford is a free agent, but he’s opting out. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He wouldn't miss out on the big bucks. ...I might be wrong though. Or it would be easier to get a 2nd Super Bowl... EDIT: Maybe telling the Pats picks will be a lottery might get a team there...

What a stupid take. Meanwhile the 6 guys who’ve opted out account for $27 million in cap for 2020. Besides who cares what your reasons are, if a guy is seriously mulling it over the team can coax him into the decision. Cannon had a lymphoma diagnosis in his past, Hightower has a newborn. Toran might not have made the team. Not heard of reasons for Vitale, Chung or Bolden yet. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This is what the AAF and the XFL gambled on (twice) and it didn't work. By and large, casual fans (not fans who have 10,000+ post on a football website) watch football for the stars, and casual fans are the real driving force behind the money. I'm sure the league would try to trudge on, but I'm sure a viewer forecast would show the league not even breaking even on the cost to broadcast vs the revenue brought in on such poor viewership. If the top 20 of the top 100 sat out, there'd be a significant drop in viewership. Nobody is tuning in to watch Matt Moore vs AJ McCarran on TNF... 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
