Dark Wings Posted March 17, 2018 Share Posted March 17, 2018 Only one player in history has won a Super Bowl after signing a $100,000,000 contract. That was Fletcher Cox this past year. This is a team game, and Matt Ryan is screwing this team. If he wants to win so bad, he needs to share with his “Brotherhood”. If a 5 time SB champion can take a pay cut to make the team better, than a qb with a losing record in the playoffs can. Ryan is a handicap, and we will not win with him at the helm, especially with a $180,000,000 contract. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ryan is far from a handicap..do I want him to sign cheap yeah, but you have to be real..would you sign for less?..NO!..in the end it is a business and you have to look out for #1..not everyone in the league has the luxury of having a supermodel wife that makes more money than you do as a multi million dollar per year qb..Tom Brady has that luxury Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'd give the team that drafted me, treated me like a king for a decade and has already shelled out buku bucks on me a discount to build a quality roster around me to make another SB push. 25 Mil vs 30 Mil. Yea. But I value my accomplishments in life over the money I've made. Edited March 17, 2018 by RubberDucky Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's $326 Million dollars, not counting sponsors and endorsements. His family is likely set for the next 10 generations already, especially since he doesn't seem to be fiscally irresponsible. He makes more in interest and investments than the money he would leave on the table for us. I'd take $326M, a couple super bowl rings and a cemented legacy (i.e. immortality) over $356M and being forgotten when I'm gone. Not saying it makes him a bad dude to take the cash, was just saying where my priorities would lie.

Smiler11 Posted March 17, 2018 Share Posted March 17, 2018 Only 27 players have ever signed a contract worth over $100m. Most if those in the last 10 years. So historically speaking this stat is kind of irrelevant Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

crimsonhawk Posted March 17, 2018 Share Posted March 17, 2018 Ok, I'll play your game....let's say he takes that team discount that some seem to think he should....and we still don't win a SB? Kinda screwing himself if you ask me. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

falconidae Posted March 17, 2018 Share Posted March 17, 2018 So, of those 100 mil contracts, 3 of them were signed by guys this year, they haven't played a down since they signed the contract, don't think you should hold that against them. Several more were proclaimed 100 mil deal but weren't- like Vick's second 100 mil contract- it had clauses that guaranteed that most of it voided out. Don't think anybody has played a 100 mil contract without restructuring or just getting cut. Bigger picture is though, that over 22,000 men have played in the NFL, only 26 have had a 100 mil contract, probably closer to a dozen have had a true 100 mil contract. Most of the 100 mil contract have been since 2007, there's just no way to make any claim about 100 mil contracts because there have been so few of them so recently.
