NFL uncapped -- Good or bad in your eyes?

[SkinzzFan]

I just want the Skins to win another Superbowl...SOON! I don't care who gets paid what or how much each owner makes. I'm a fan of the game of football, not the business of the NFL. If an uncapped NFL means the Redskins become the Yankees of the NFL then great, they have 26 championships. Can't argue with that (they've been buying players since Babe Ruth). LOL.

Seriously, I'm not saavy enough about the salary cap to know what's best for the game. All I know is MLB seems to be doing pretty well without one.

HAIL!!

My only issue with the CAP is no matter how high it is......lets say they raise it 50 mill more, DS will eventually sooner rather then later putting us again at our limit leaving us having to figure out how to stay under what ever CAP there is. Without the CAP DS can spend, spend, spend and we don't have to worry about finageling our way under a CAP.

So if DS wants to spend 200 mill then so be it, but under some NFLPA (players)give them 50% of the teams earnings. Maybe find a way to take the first 10% of income off the top (by the NFL) for teams in bad markets and only give it to teams that are generating the lowest. In other words the NFL could take the 10% from the teams in the top 10 or 20 % and give it to the teams in the lowest 10% earnings wise. This would still benifit the teams not making enough money and yet still allow teams to keep and resign valuable players.

I don't think prudent planning would make him open up the check book for new players. Didn't someone indicate that the biggest advantage would be our ability to clear out cap penalties? I figured the best move would be to take the top 25% of your salaries, and accelerate their pay mostly into the uncapped year. Fully anticipating a return to the cap, we could create a lot of space by only paying CP, Chris Samuels, etc. minimum salaries in the latter part of their careers as Dan has given them a huge paycheck in the uncapped year. Does that sound realistic?
