Let's say they add a bye, so there will be another week of added TV revenue that gets spread out. 5.8% increase.

I don't know what the playoff games bring, but add that to the pot.

But hey, they will give the players .5% of that. ****ing pathetic.

Well, the players would get 48.5% of that, not .5%

I’m not against your thought process, just saying it’s not that drastically in favor of the owners

The total revenue generates by the extra game should be around 6%.

At 48% the players receive 3% per game (48% divided by 16 games).

At 48.5 the players receive 2.85% per game (48.5% divided by 17 games).
