I think the reason the "experts" always think we're going to run into trouble is because they do understand how money allocates under the salary cap rules, but they don't take into consideration the changing financial dynamics in the NFL. Because the NFL is growing so fast, the cap grows along with it. That's why conservative teams like the Eagles always seem to have more cap room each year, they're not taking advantage of the fact that the cap will grow.
