That would sort of be like baseball. Talk is the next year or two could be that way. Obviously would benefit bigger market teams. We'll see.

On no hard cap, there's talk teams might be able to spend over the cap (without penalty) which allows them to keep high-priced vets.

Could be big deal.

Could be unfounded rumor.

Discuss.

Seems like something a particular mega billionaire Owner, who's currently over the cap brought up.

maybe this is what Jerry was saving for?

Lol, this.

Also the Panthers wouldn't be in trouble, because of the PSL's they rank in the top 10-11 in revenue each season and are one of the more valuable NFL franchises.

Not really, they can make 3 moves and get under the cap. Just restructure the deals of Romo, Ware and Austin. Saves 20 million in cap room and extends the three most important players on the team.

which team are y'all talking about? boys or skins or another?

edit: post above gives the answer

Cowboys, they are currently over the Cap by 19.7 Million.

The Skins are in pretty good shape, sitting with a cash payroll of 80 million dollars and a cap number around 110

So...this means the Panthers can sign players like crazy?

No, it means their would be more bids for our FA's.

I hope not, football is king because of parody... no hard cap is one of the biggest reasons why the NBA and MLB are failing.

could go either way. just depends on how much Jerry wants to pay. I agree with Catman72 though.

They could but...

We lack a big enough market to sustain them. Other bigger revenue teams wouldn't. Clearly this gives some teams an advantage and that is obviously the biggest clue NOT to support this. They should just raise the ceiling if they must, teams don't HAVE to spend everything.

Who wants to see the Cowboys become even more popular?
