    A FG kicker at 34 is still able body for NFL. Maybe he can George Blanda it;)

    In hindsight, thought Steelers should have went 4-3 after losing to Rodgers/Packers in XLV, plus to better combat Brady in AFC. Brady's kryptonite was fast 4-3 D lines. Only Von Miller Broncos were exception to this trend.

    Not sure Cam would have fit in a 4-3.

    IDK the timing of all this for Boz, but he has a more valid excuse than Cam IMO, he is on the last year of his contract with no guarantees. Cam just signed a contract last year and this action apparently came out of no where to some correspondent.

    This kind of reminds me of Franco when he was about to surpass Brown's record. He came into camp demanding more money, got shipped to Seattle, never broke the record and got surpassed by Peyton.

    They usually negotiate extensions in camp during the last year so this is no big deal but rather business as usual

    No where is there anything from Boswell

    One person made it up and others copy cat

    This is just click bait

    Football is a business for both owners and players. Not sure why people expect the players to live up to some high standard when the owners don't.

    If Hayward is worth more to the steelers than his current contract, then shouldn't the owners pay him more proactively?? Why should Hayward go on strike to get the owners to pay him what the owners are willing to pay him to run their business??

    At the end of the day, the owners will decide on the amount they're willing to pay Hayward, and that amount will be what the owners feel they should pay him to make business profit.

    Speaking for myself I expect players to honor their contracts just like the owners do.

    If players want their contract to go up then owners should have the right to make them go down.

    Its really that simple.
