Good/Bad News for a Change - 2013 18MM cap penalty probably (not) going away

What I never understood was if the Redskins restructured contracts in an uncapped year to gain some sort of advantage over other teams, how much of an advantage would we have? Uncapped year or not, a team should be able to restructure contracts if it wants.....

They were looking out for the cheap owners that wanted to save money and instead of dropping loads like Danny and Jerry did. I am of mind that I believe most owners would rather profit than win.

I don't really think thats the case. There are alot of ways for people who are already fithly stinking richt to make even more money. But these guys chose to own an NFL team. They know theyre going to make money, but they want to do it in a manner that allows them to win something. So i think all NFL owners are driven to have a successful team that wins.

I do think that alot of owners, due to a number of factors (market size, their own limitations in coming up with ways to generate revenue, etc.) have a more limited budget to work with. They simply can't afford to spend as much money and make an acceptable profit margin. I mean, if mike brown (cinci) or shahid khan (jags) spent money like Daniel Snyder and Jerry Jones, the franchises would go bankrupt.... come to think of it, that might not be a bad thing.
