You play a game and get paid handsomely to do it. If that is not to your liking as a player then quit and get another job. McDonalds is always hiring if you didn't get your degree. |

Aaron Donald Drew Brees Khalil Mack Pat Mahomes Todd Gurley Tom Brady Antonio Brown Aaron Rodgers Julio Jones Von Miller DeAndre Hopkins JJ Watt Alvin Kamara Bobby Wagner Saquon Barkley Phillip Rivers Ezekiel Elliott Tyreek Hill Travis Kelce That’s the top 20 as chosen by the players. I’d love to see that scenario play out. |

Re: Jalen Ramsey
Agreed. Based on the same principle that sh1tty music sells out concerts. The part of the fanbase that is knowledgeable, is a very small percent of the total revenue generating fan-base that has no clue but throws money at it.
NFL fans show up to watch scabs, of course they would show up if 3 of their 53 man roster were not on the field. ![]() |
