LittleHurt05 Posted June 2, 2011 Share Posted June 2, 2011 Jerry Jones, Robert Kraft, and a few other owners secretly met in Chicago yesterday with NFLPA leader DeMaurice Smith. It might be nothing, but interesting nonetheless. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Controlled Chaos Posted June 2, 2011 Share Posted June 2, 2011 QUOTE (LittleHurt05 @ Jun 2, 2011 -> 08:37 AM) Jerry Jones, Robert Kraft, and a few other owners secretly met in Chicago yesterday with NFLPA leader DeMaurice Smith. It might be nothing, but interesting nonetheless. They met in West Chicago and flew into tiny DuPage airport. No doubt this was supposed to be a secret meeting for whatever reason. http://www.chicagotribune.com/sports/footb...0,2077536.story Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fathom Posted June 2, 2011 Share Posted June 2, 2011 Saw a huge jet flying towards the airport yesterday. If anyone can find out where they met, I'd like to know. Probably at Pheasant Run. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

T R U Posted June 15, 2011 Share Posted June 15, 2011 So apparently they are at about "80-85" percent on the deal and people are sticking around because it could be done in a few days.. how the f*** could they not have been like this months ago and avoided this bulls***?

Soxbadger Posted June 19, 2011 Share Posted June 19, 2011 Settlements always happen at the last second, its the nature of playing the game of chicken. If you can make the other side swerve, you win, even if you were fully willing to swerve as well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It was on espn.com as the headline, finheaven.com, and I listen to ESPN radio on satellite radio all day and they also talked about it.. the latest ive heard now is that there are owners going against eachother in this example.. an owner like Jerry Jones who spends on his team doesn't think he should share the same amount of money with a guy like Paul Brown who doesn't do those things..

whitesoxbrian Posted July 18, 2011 Share Posted July 18, 2011 The Lions. LOL. Every year, along with Houston, they're everyone's "surprise" team. They drafted Nick Fairley, and everyone declared them a 9 or 10 win team. While they might kill some QB's, they've yet to address their OL. Therefore, killing QB's isn't all that great when your's is killed, too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They have a pretty tough schedule this year. They got to keep Stafford healthy. If that guy ever plays the whole year, they are a very good/underrated team. Hell last season, they got screwed over two wins. Solid QB, good RB, outstanding #1 WR, underrated TE, beast DL.. I would say their main weaknesses is DB, OL (though IMO, their OL isn't that bad). Maybe a better #2 WR cause I see Burleson more as a #3 but they did just draft Titus Young who could be that guy. Stafford is the key for them to do anything in this division though.
