A lot of teams pay so much for a QB they cannot spend for the other parts they need.

Would it ever happen that a qb would want to win a Super Bowl so bad that he would accept a minimum salary? Proviso to use his money to get him the OC he wants and tremendous depth and talent on offense.

for example Rodgers? Has all the money he will ever need. Talk other Packers into it - Go for it one time as stacked up as it is possible. Probably, make it up in endorsements?

And I respect Brady for that.

In theory, (this is all cracker barrel kind of chatter over a few beers). Let's sat a qb like Cousins and 9 good players with 1 year left or so all have one more shot at a Super Bowl (never won one or played for it). They agree to play for the minimum veteran salary and the team has 65 million plus to get free agent talent and depth.

Would it work? What kind of stable would you compile this way?

I am worried about not only super star talent but depth. It seems linemen fell like trees this year. On my team, I am getting 8 real good defensive lineman and then rotate them every 3 plays some way and coach an all out push every time / go 3 and rotate. My theory is these d lineman can all out push about three times and they are gassed? Could that tactic dominate with the right amount of depth and talent?

The NFLPA undoubtedly would have a problem with players lowballing their services for a chance at a Super Bowl ring.

no, that would ruin the nfl, it would be like nba with store bought teams, less parity.

Well, LOL - I only care about winning and would support any player that did that for his team.

No disrespect to career players who do not get the chance. As a fan I would say - that is
