And that there is the crux of the argument. There is no team in the NFL that doesn't have enough revenue to cover the maximum player expenses stipulated by the salary cap. The current system is not tipping the scales too much from a player perspective, though the Skins do have an uncanny ability to outbid other teams for coaches.

But if you want to make the balance fair on the coaching side, put a cap on coaching salaries and just share a tiny bit more revenue to cover that part on top of the players. If teams still complained about money after that, they'd have no financial ground to stand on. They'd have all the money they'd need to stay competitive, and it wouldn't take anything more than a minute increase in shared revenues to accomplish that.
