Tipster19 Posted November 15, 2023 Share Posted November 15, 2023 (edited) It was unheard of when Cleveland gave Watson a totally guaranteed contract so how about one that has penalties in addition to the incentives? I bet Josh would be a little bit more careful with the ball instead of just throwing it into triple coverage. Of course Josh shouldn’t be the only one being referenced to, he just happens to be the biggest one. The OL, too many false starts, deduct time. Dropped passes (Gabe Davis), before he’s benched tax his sorry butt. Right down the line, it doesn’t matter who the player or team is, nobody should be exempt. Hey, contracts are loaded with incentives, do extra good get extra money, then they should get penalized when they make stupid plays. It wouldn’t surprise me that we’d be seeing a lot cleaner football instead of seeing a shrug of the shoulders and acting like oh well.

EasternOHBillsFan Posted November 15, 2023 Share Posted November 15, 2023 The likelihood of that happening is ZERO... about as likely as someone who fumbles being sent to a chair on the sideline wearing a dunce cap. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chugga Posted November 15, 2023 Share Posted November 15, 2023 Love the idea but how do you assess blame? Does Josh get docked for that interception to Gabe? Does Cook get docked for the fumble that Josh dropped? Ive seen too many d-linemen collect a check and eat their way out of the league. So love the idea but yeah will never happen Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SoCal Deek Posted November 15, 2023 Share Posted November 15, 2023 Or how about we get a coach that gets the MOST out of his players instead of the LEAST? Hmmmm? How about we just try that first. 👍 2 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NoSaint Posted November 15, 2023 Share Posted November 15, 2023 If you want you glass half empty just look at the value of the deal as hitting everything and you are penalizing their shortcomings to that Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Many contracts contain per game roster bonuses for being on the active roster. Some also have penalties that void guarantees. For example; Watson’s guarantees all void if he violates the NFL’s personal conduct policy again. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bray Wyatt Posted November 15, 2023 Share Posted November 15, 2023 Seems like a great way to lure free agents to sign with you!! https://images.app.goo.gl/nx1YPc9kiNFcYTZg7 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nobody can see their gf's all week, and whoever is given the gameball gets a 52-some! This way every week players are super motivated to play their best!!! Think of all the incentive!!!

So love the idea but yeah will never happen they have this already. show up to camp at weight bonuses..... or sit out during games/practice and ride an exercise bike. Just like with Kyler Murray s freaking ipad/CallofDuty, if u think u need to put clauses like this in a contract, theyre not the one. Josh is the one. Hes proved it for years. we had a dud opener, then lit up scoreboard few weeks in a row, then pooped the bed.... now we fired our OC... looks like well fire our HC. Get top offensive minds in (or just not bottom barrel ones) and watch Josh go off again. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ya Digg? Posted November 15, 2023 Share Posted November 15, 2023 This is such an epically terrible idea 🤦♂️🤦♂️ would you sign a contract for your job that penalizes you? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Andy1 Posted November 15, 2023 Share Posted November 15, 2023 The NFL already stands as “not for long” for most players. Players sacrifice their bodies for this sport. Why would you want players to get less money from the billionaire owners. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BlazinBill Posted November 15, 2023 Share Posted November 15, 2023 I'm just going to go out on a limb here and say you have never been a contracted employee - I understand where your coming from , kinda, but bro if you suck at your job do you loose anything ? I mean we all, unless your union, negotiate something when we take a job- do you loose your free parking because you forgot to put the stupid cover page on the TPS reports?
