[QUOTE="Sunshinepacker, post: 876676, member: 9033"] Good analysis on this issue at CBSSports basically says that owners and players will agree to borrow against future earnings and just have a flat cap for 2 years or small increases in the cap for 2-3 years. The portion of the article (which I've linked below) that appears most relevant is about Article 12, Section 1 of the CBA, which says: "[I]f… AR (all revenue) for any League Year substantially decreases, in either case due to a terrorist or military action, natural disaster, or similar event, the parties shall engage in good faith negotiations to adjust the provisions of this Agreement with respect to the projection of AR and the Salary Cap for the following League Year so that AR for the following League Year is projected in a fair manner consistent with the changed revenue projection caused by such action." Owners certainly don't want to have to start cutting star players and players don't want to be cut. The NFL, as a business, is smart enough to do that rather than assure the break up of the best teams.
