I don't know about Dak, but if I was Watson. I would price my way out from the Texans & their love of O'Brein

While I like Dak the young man, Dak the QB is way to full of himself as far as his value.

Yep. He is going the way of Cam Newton unless he becomes more of a student of the game. Dak can't carry a team against a good foe and it has been shown over and over against good teams. He may have great stats in the last 4 yrs but the NFL is about winning as Jerry has stated. When Elliot was gone those 6 games Dak got exposed.

Just sign the damn thing. Players won't get what they want and never will. Owners of the ranch own cattle. Players are their cattle.

😂😂 amazing. Players voice concerns about 17 games being the biggest reason they vote NO. So now the NFL leaks they want 18 games if this CBA proposal doesn’t pass. Take this deal players or get 18 games and less money in March 2021. https://t.co/irCm91RCA3

I think this was intentionally leaked by the NFL to put pressure on the players to approve the CBA.

How do the "cheap" players feel about 18 games?

Many of them are only in the league for ~3 years, so do they see it as being an opportunity for "one more check while it lasts" and a good thing? Obviously the big money guys would be a "hell no".

No shit. The cheap players should all say yes.

I don't know, does each player vote, or is it just each team's representative that votes?

Everyone that pays nflpa dues so even some free agents who aren't on a team.

This sounds strange to focus on but I've never seen a professional send a centered-justified response in any legal correspondence.

Wonder if this is real or someone else copied and pasted this? :-)

An economic populist backlash from the less rich players against the 1% salaried players.

An interesting development from this CBA process.

60% make around the league minimum. 50%+1 passes the new CBA.

Smart move by the owners to give a really nice raise to the bottom feeders of the league. Better benefits for them and so forth. It's a dirt cheap investment by the owners to get the 17th game, extra playoff games, and a bigger TV contract.
