You think just raising concessions is going to offset the extra $10 BILLION in revenue over the length of the deal? Not even $300 beers can make up that kind of money.
Last I heard ticket sales at all NFL games was about 20% of revenue. Could be wrong on the % but I'm not wrong that TV money is why all this exists.
If the players want the $5 BILLION in extra pay(they fully know the additional risks to them and their careers), then we as fans should be okay with the plan.
