thebestever6 Posted February 24, 2018 Share Posted February 24, 2018 With the playoff bonus structure? Teams with byes get no pay for a bye week. Wild card loser $23,000 Wc winner $25,000 Division round $25,000 Afc title game $46,000 Superbowl loser $52,000 SB winner $103,000 Every player gets the same pay by the league Listen I know I sound bad to some because these athletes make millions. This is such a flawed system especially considering how much the level pf play raises. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JAF-N72EX Posted February 24, 2018 Share Posted February 24, 2018 No work. No pay. I see nothing wrong with it. These players also get the benefit to rest and prepare longer than others and ultimately raise their chances of making even more by appearing or winning in a conference championship and Super Bowl.

There is no way to appease every player when it comes to an overall pay-scale. Garoppolo made more than Brady did for this past Super Bowl for example.

No he made more due to some flaw in the state tax laws and how contracts work because he was on the active list with the Patriots before he signed with the 49ers. edit?: Here's a link that explains it. https://www.si.com/nfl/2018/01/25/super-bowl-shares-jimmy-garoppolo-tom-brady-new-england-patriots Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thats crazy I feel like as a whole the system is flawed though. I'd love to see the ratio and profit margins from the regular seasons to post season. If it was equal I could see the argument but I doubt it . Have a feeling the league is winning big time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It would be interesting to see but you know damn well that the NFL would never put out that type of INFO. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Haha and that's not a coincidence I think they make the most money in the post season. $ 25,000 is a joke for the top 50 % of the roster for the post season.

At the same time the same wage for playoff play does bring the team closer together imo. Setting it up for better games. We can't prove this it's an opinion I know guys are competitive but having a military equality all for one one for all type structure helps.

But thats the thing about the NFL. It's a business first and foremost and most players and GM's/Owners are looking at things alot differently. It would be the same as if how you are with your boss. If you get what I'm saying. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I get it its like what came first chicken or the egg? Do players just,naturally get more competitive during the playoffs or are they all like hungry dogs like jason kelce said? A bunch of hungry dogs looking to make the most money possible. I have a feeling thats why qbs don't get a lot of playoff incentive deals Peyton Manning was the last one I can think of. Thats a lot of pressure on the qb. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Really, the players are expected to show up for practice and film study, yet receive nothing for it, Hum??? In every practice, they risk injury, so I think they are working and getting nothing for it??? I would hardly call that rest??? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This is such a flawed system especially considering how much the level pf play raises. What you are looking at there is the league bonus. These guys also have incentives in their contract if they make playoffs, probowl, title games, etc... Dont cry for the upper tier guys, they are well compensated Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
