I just think this bidding war has to slow down or else.
Their salary is ridiculous? Look up the average NFL salary, not what the superstars make but the average. Then look at career length of the players and the debilitating injuries they leave the game with.

The owners have to do something? Are you serious? They are making billions, the NFL is not going broke and there dang sure won't be NFL owners in the food stamp office any time soon. In all actuality the owners do not even pay the players, their money comes from the TV contracts so in effect the networks pay them. The owners get all the concessions and ticket revenue etc. but there is no owner paying the money out of their own pocket.
