I agree with all you are saying. I just disagree with you saying owners are dumb saps for giving big contracts to franchise QBs. Burrow contract will be similar or larger than Herbert's
They make the money from TV contracts because TV networks know millions watch games because of the players. Not sure your point on attendance though. Networks don't really care about that. Just people watching on TV
No, he's not. He signed market value at the time and will sign a bigger deal next time which will put him at the top of the scale....until the next QB signs....kind of a pattern for QBs in the NFL
People still need to write things so fans can get all worked up. It's the new journalism. Just make stuff up to get a reaction. You're right. Makes no sense to make this trade right before camp plus doubtful Pack want to get rid of him
what's wrong with that? They all want the most money. Their careers are short. Can you guarantee the Bills will win but the Titans won't? Do you want every free agent to sign with the top teams?
