“Timing is everything,” Dallas Cowboys owner Jerry Jones warned during a media session at the NFL scouting combine. “It is critical that we all recognize where our timing is.”
Jones was, as usual, one of the key figures in the negotiating sessions, and the only NFL owner who has dared to speak publicly about the deal as it remains unresolved while in the voting process. And he’ll be front-and-center for negotiations for the next TV broadcast deals, which by some estimates could increase as much as 50% from the current $5 billion per year payout.
Yet Aaron Rodgers, the Green Bay Packers’ star quarterback, has wondered whether the same could be achieved with 16 games spread over 18 weeks that would give each team two bye weeks per season. Hmm. In the name of player safety and body preservation, Rodgers makes a good point.
