I don’t get it. This means 43% of the league will make the playoffs.
I guess you have to "find" a way to let the damn Cowgirls in perhaps .

J.J. Watt Voices Thoughts on New CBA Proposal: 'Hard No'

https://www.si.com/nfl/2020/02/21/jj...oposal-hard-no

Watt is not alone in voicing his concerns on the proposal. San Francisco 49ers cornerback Richard Sherman supported the Texans' star on social media. Others, including Jaguars running back Leonard Fournette. Packers left tackle David Bakhtiari have also raised possible concerns.

The vocal minority. From my understanding most players are in favor as it will give them an extra paycheck. This isn't as important to the elite few like Watt and Sherman, but to the average player that may only be in the league for a few years it is huge.

One more thing, the proposed CBA will also eliminate testing for marijuana. Once again, another goal of the NFLPA.

Not eliminate, narrow the window for marijuana testing.

It would be removed from the list of banned substances and "National Football League players would no longer face the possibility of being suspended from games just for testing positive for marijuana".

It might as well be "eliminated" if it is no longer banned and carries no suspensions, don't you think?

Re: Potential Changes in New CBA

There are no details yet, but "two of the key terms in the proposed CBA are an overall reduction in on-field fines and a reduction in club fines."

Union says fines will be reduced in new CBA
