that little toss cost him 300 grand
300k? For someone like Tepper, who is worth tens of billions, this fine, when compared to his financial worth, amounted to a few pennies he found on the street. I'm sure that'll get his attention, LOL. Notice that his post-fine statement didn't even include an apology. Smh.

Fining a billionaire owner $300K? Isn't that kind like fining the average Joe like me 10 bucks? Hell, I've tipped hot waitresses more than that and haven't drank for 25 years. Am I allowed to say hot waitresses anymore, lol?

Are we sure we need 17 games?

It's the way of the World and frankly the NFL is late to the party. Most sports pull starters in meaningless last day games. This would still happen if the NFL only played 12 games. Better to have 16 live games and 1 imitation rather than 11 live games and 1 imitation.

All but 3 on that list are playing out of necessity. And would have been playing no matter if the game was meaningful so I don't see that as much.
Slight edit: Stidham being the exception and we all no why he's playing.

No. With 12 games, it would happen 25% less often just because of the way the math works. Due to less spread between teams.

Also less time for QBs to get injured. There were more starting QBs in week 3 than week 16. But you should know that.

QBs pulled from 2023 Week 18 by teams:
Purdy is being rested.
Stafford is being rested.
Mahomes is being rested.
Jackson is being rested.
Wilson is being rested.
Flacco is being rested.

Starting QBs on IR before the 12th game of 2023:
Rodgers.
Burrows.
Watson.
Cousins.
Jones.
Richardson.
Murray started season on IR from 2022 injury.

Teams benching starting QBs in 2023:
Raiders.
Patriots.
Steelers.
Commanders.

What would be different in 2023 if there were 12 or 16 games instead of 17 games? :noidea:

Bad faith from you. I already gave you the answer.

Did the Niners rest Purdy week 12, why not?
