And the players would all be rolling way harder than they are now. But seriously, it would have to increase the cap, depending on when those contracts kicked in to gear. Is it for the 2021 season? What date is the cap officially set, March 17? by St. Loser Fan 3 years 2 months ago Total posts: 10559 Joined: May 31 2016 Saint Louis MO Hall of Fame NFL Negotiating New TV Deals POST #7 TOPIC AUTHOR PARAM wrote:I've acutally been waiting for somebody to outbid Directv for NFLTicket.

But broadcasting the SB on ESPN would be like broadcasting it on NFLN....a lot of folks don't have it and advertisers would be paying a lot for less viewers. As far as MNF, two games every week would be awesome but again, less viewership. Come to think of it, the schedule makers have a hard enough time putting 1 good game on. Perhaps a "scheduled game" and a flex game might work for a 2 game MNF season. But Disney would probably have to pony up some more. Then we might hear NBC and CBS whining.
