Mark Anderson has diabetes. Cameron Heyward has asthma. Von Miller has asthma and already got it..what if he gets a different strain and goes through this again?
Just ****ing cancel the season. It’s going to watered down shit by the time all these guys opt out. That’s not even counting a single player getting the virus heya be missing time |

It sure seems penny wise and pound foolish, though.
I mean if it's true that it's a stipend that they're 'borrowing' against future earnings for, they're gonna give it back if they're in the league next year. Meanwhile those that think they'll be out of the league next season and never need to 'repay' it seem to be running the risk of a self-fulfilling prophecy. Time marches on here and if there IS a season and they don't play in it, they're probably done. For $150K? These guys really that hard-up for money? I can see it for guys on the fringes of rosters, but established veterans w/ a few years of sizeable paychecks and a few more years of football in front of them - boy that seems an iffy gamble to be taking. |

And the NFL failed at creating the proper incentives to have this season. |

Losing Cannon ain't nothing.
That's their starting RT and one of the few known quantities they could count on year in, year out on that line. He was especially good in pass pro. That hurts more than Hightower, IMO. |

Another lineman, these fat dudes seem concerned. |

Most of these players will regret their opt-out decisions by October when the NFL season is progressing as relatively normal.
No opting back in... when you are out, you are gone until 2021 (assuming you even get your job back). |

Yes, please continue to predict doom and gloom, after all your predictions during last season about the Chiefs’ championship chances were so accurate....

Then the 49ers just physically manhandled them. I still can't quite figure that one out. Clark is a monster and the Smith's aren't pussies. Had to be a LBer issue that I just never cared to dig into. How a team that had gotten premier play by their front 4 most of the season was just ground into a fine powder like that, I'll never understand. Then again, Rodgers bitching up on the game 3 drives in didn't help them. Man he looked real old, real fast. I understand that his overall numbers looked fine, but Rodgers played them right out of that game in the 1st half. I mean the Packers DID give up 6 fewer points/gm than they did in 2018 and went 13-3. It's hard to say they didn't do a damn fine job rebuilding that D. The problem is that they still don't seem to think they need to do anything to address the offense... |

All these guys who are opting out already got paid a big contract with solid guaranteed money.
