Via PFT: NFL wants immediate suspension of Deshaun Watson, NFLPA doesn't rule it out
Earlier today, we raised the possibility of appeals officer Peter Harvey ruling in the next two days that Browns quarterback Deshaun Watson should be suspended for a full year, and that it should begin immediately. We have an update. Yes, the NFL has asked for a one-year suspension starting now. If implemented before Friday night, this would keep Watson off the field for the preseason opener against the Jaguars. And, no, the NFL Players Association hasn’t ruled out the possibility of this happening. As one source with knowledge of the union’s thinking on the case said, “We are ready if he does.” Everyone else needs to be ready, too. Today, tomorrow, or Friday. Harvey can issue a ruling, and Watson will be barred from playing. And if the union plans to try to fight the decision in court, the league may be tempted to wait as long as possibly, thereby limiting the amount of time that the union has to launch a counter aimed at getting Watson on the field, for the balance of the preseason. |

Quote HistoryQuoted: Pittsburgh was 29th in the NFL for home attendance in 2021... 88.4% capacity average. Only the Jets, Lions and Washington were lower... Strangely, they were the 2nd HIGHEST for road attendance with an average of 98.6% capacity. They have always traveled really well though. Edit: 4 of the teams on the list (KC, MIN, DEN, LAR) actually came out at OVER 100% occupancy for their home games in 2021. Not sure what the hell that means... Standing tickets only? But that is a likely contributor for why all 4 of them are on the list. Also another factor that manipulates this now is the 17 game schedule, only 50% of the teams have an additional home game each year now. Quote HistoryQuoted: Quoted: Quoted:

Quote HistoryEvery time I see his name I wonder how we got to this point. 2020: Signed contract extension and his team 4-12. 2021: Sat out because he wanted to be traded. 2022: Over 20 sexual assault allegations - gets traded for 3 1st round picks + others and then gets $230 million guaranteed money.  I understand teams kicking the tires on him to see what it would take to get via trade but damn. With all that being said I don't think a year suspension is long enough if the NFL wants to say they support women. They aren't going to fine the Browns for making the trade in the middle of the of all it so it would have to default back to player to punish them. Yes, I know the NFL only cares about ones thing = money. |

So the Cowboys training camp goes to California every year, they are in Oxnard again this year. ESPN just did a piece on what it takes to arrange all of it.
Seven figure bill to set it all up with six months of planning. Rent out the entire River Ridge Residence Inn complex (32 buildings). Four double wide trailers setup at River Ridge for coaches, scouting and video department personnel. Ballrooms converted into meeting and dining rooms. Personnel and security arrive 3 weeks before coaches and players. Ten 53 foot long trucks weighing 10-13k pounds each bring in equipment. 500 pounds of wristbands for visitors. Three levels of fencing are set up around the complex. They convert 5 existing tennis courts into the weight room, rookie locker room, media center and family viewing. Equipment staff and training staff are each provided a triple wide trailer. A Brazilian field expert (works with FIFA for World Cups) flies in to treat and maintain the fields. Chefs from The Star, Legends Hospitality, SoFi Stadium and LAFC help prepare food. Food trucks and local LA chefs brought in on rotation. |

Sometimes good isn't good enough, and for some teams, just making it to the post season doesn't make that cut. In the last 5 seasons the Steelers have missed the cut twice, they lucked in this year (2021) with a shite record, and they have gone 0-3 in the post season.
Reminds me of the early 2000's Chargers. Schotty took over a team that went 14-34 under Riley. He had two struggle years turning it around and then in his 3rd year they went 12-4 and won the division for the first time in 10 years. Two years later they went 14-2, best record in football, and lost in the first round to the Pats and the Chargers fired Schotty. If you want to win Championships, sometimes you have to make changes even if you're already a winning team. Rams did it. 2017 they won the division. 2018 they won the division and lost in the Super Bowl. 2020 they were 10-6, made the playoffs, and lost. McVay got drunk, tampered with Stafford, brought him in, they leveraged all the cap space and picks they could, brought in OBJ and Von. Made it happen. The problem with Pittsburgh is... Who do you replace Tomlin with? There's no known commodity, so they would have to take a gamble, and who do you gamble on? Of course they have other problems like quarterback questions now... |
