Then why is this in court?

Probably because if they were a partial owner they'd have say, rights, voting power in whom the team is sold, when, etc. They dontnwant that hanging over their heads. So get rid of them so that they can move forward cleanly.

Because I could buy her off and end around anyone if I wanted to do so and had 4 billion to spend on it. That means the original suitor has a lack of confidence built into the deal unless the clause is removed.

But the offense, oh my. The rookie OC is letting his rookie prize QB let it rip, and that’s the problem. I don’t expect them to fix all their problems on offense in 1 week, so I fully expect our defense to make adjustments and get more TO’s. If our offense can just get a 10 pt lead at some point, the jets offense will panic, and that’s when we will have them.

That’s the theory, anyway.

I stand corrected. Broncos playing hard, and Jets proving they’re not a very good team.
