So I was wondering this too. The cap goes down right? Cause this season revenue will be down.
At this point they need to make QBs separate from the salary cap. But still have them some how impact it. Not sure how but once you pay a QB you are strapped.

Is this thread really gonna slob-knob on Brady and Belichek? The only thing I want to see from them is Brady getting wiped out so hard his helmet flies off and takes out belichick in a freak accident. Don't care if it needs to take a 3 hour flight to get there.

Next year's cap will go down, just from loss of stadium ticket sales, but the NFL / NFLPA negotiated that the cap reduction would be spread out over the next ten (iirc) seasons, so it will be completely hidden by the next TV restructure, whenever that is.
(Assuming there is still a post-pandemic, post-glorious revolution society, of course.)

Ravens, not Saints, would have gotten Jadeveon Clowney in sign and trade
Yes, the Saints inquired with the league about the possibility of a sign-and-trade that would have allowed them to get defensive end Jadeveon Clowney by purchasing via draft-pick compensation the extra cash and cap space needed to get the deal done.

Would have been funny if the NFL would have approved.

LMAO. I guess Gruden still knows how to pick them. Definitely was top competition for Carr.
Edit- In other news, reality pisses off the Jets once again. Jets GM says team angered by low expectations

The new money numbers look big on the 2 year extension part, but in reality it all works out to essentially a 5 year deal total at $18.8M a year.

Marriota never really had a chance to replace Carr this season. Not with Covid, no preseason, etc. Even without Covid, Marriota is just a high priced backup.
Carr has all kinds of receivers to throw to this year, good ones. I think he will do well. He hasn't really had a decent receiver group since his 2012 season when he threw for over 4000 yards and won 12 games.
After the Brown fiasco last year, so no deep threat and with Williams playing hurt, Carr was in survival mode. He still managed to play well considering his lack of serious receiving threats. One week he was throwing at a guy who was on the couch the week prior. If Brown hadn't pulled his bullshit, the Raider's would easily have won one more game and made it to the playoffs.
We'll see how he does. I think Carr is a great quarterback. But he will have to prove it this year. With the team loaded with receiving threats and a really good running back with Jacobs, Carr won't have any excuses.
