The fact attendance stayed close to 100% throughout workouts says to me the players didn’t have a huge issue with it so to me who cares about a couple of fines, had attendance dropped significantly then it would have been an issue,

Would be interesting to know if Meyer, Cullen, etc... were instructing the CBs and WRs to get physical or if by the nature of the players' competitiveness they started to push off each other a little bit. I think the latter is just a much a possibility (if not moreso) as the former. Perhaps the thing to do during OTAs as a coach is never allow the players to be in a scenario where they could violate their own collective bargaining rules. If they aren't the ones getting fined why would they care to break them. After all many of these guys have a roster spot they need to earn. Can't afford to practice soft if others arent. ________________________________________________ Scouting well is all that matters. Draft philosophy is all fluff.

I don't think incidental contact between DBs and WRs would be enough for the players to complain to their union rep. Let's not forget the Jags and Urban got double the fine as the other teams that were penalized. I'd say the coach was telling players to do things he wasn't supposed to and it was egregious enough to double the fine on him.

I wonder if these rulings can be challenged or overturned. Is there video evidence to back up the NFLPA's claim? Or does the league simply take their word for it?
I ask because after the reputation TC left us with the NFLPA, it's fair to ask if they have an ax to grind with the Jags. We show less advertisements to registered users. Accounts are free; join today!
People are making too much of this. The league hands out fines like candy on Halloween. Meyer isn't one to be shy about approaching the line and occasionally stepping over it but it's not like he's hiring spies to film opponent's practices.
I'm condescending. That means I talk down to you.

Jaguars had an NFLPA rep at the June 1st practice if you’re wondering who the “snitch” was.
— Dilla (@E_Dilla) July 1, 2021 I can only guess he was there to verify a report by someone of the violations. It could have been a player, but most likely someone else at the practice, maybe a traveling scribe from another team. Can you say Scalp hunting?

Yea they care about the player's interests so much that they're adding more games during the season lol.. As I said in my first post, it's not a big deal at the end of the day. Missing 2 days in the first week of OTAs is nothing much. I like the competitiveness though and there's far worse things they could have did wrong than letting the players bump shoulders a time or two. We show less advertisements to registered users.

It's not just a concession to the players. Once it becomes the rule, it's a competitive issue. A cheating advantage issue.
LOL
why be bothered by this? Oh no!!! They practiced too hard!! I’m totally good with this.
Its been awhile... same ol crybabies doing crybaby stuff eh?
So Urbs and Khan lost some ched and we lose 2 otas next year? Wake me up when you guys are crying over something news worthy... like Tebow making the roster and keeping Kap from a starting job. |
