John Mara is like a child upset with how the game was going (Redskins/Cowboys getting better with cap help due to uncapped year), so he got the rules changed (the CBA amendment) to gain an advantage. When the Skins and cowboys had broken no rules themselves.
It's pretty cut and dried. John Mara cheated by unfairly handicapping two division rivals, and reinforced illegal collusion to boot. Collusion to nullify an uncapped year that the NFL and NFLPA had negotiated under the previous CBA in good faith. I should stop being funny and call it what it is. John Mara is slime.
