NFL Poised to Allow Teams to Sell 30% of Franchise to Private Equity
Interesting development. Hopefully this means less tax payer funded stadiums and renovations and cash poor owners will start to field more competitive teams.

What's your biggest concern for next season?
My biggest concern, for the Packers, is the development of our kicker. That's because last year Carlson wasn't consistenly good. I know we signed Greg Joseph to compete with him, but the position is still an unknown. Also the defense is worthy of a mention too. I hope the transition to the more aggressive style of Hafley (our new DC) and the switch to a 4-3 scheme, can prove beneficial to our team. I believe the safeties we drafted can help too.

Is Gore Sr & Jr the closest a father and son duo has played on the same team?
Frank Sr was on the Bills in 2019. Junior signed with the Bills this year. Has any other father-son duo been that close together on the same team? Or even that close together in the league (2020 to now)?
The closest I can find for same team is Bill Matthews with the Titans in 2001 and his son Kevin playing with them in 2010.
u/dianeblackeatsass for the answer - Ted and Charlie Nesser for the 1921 Columbus Panhandles. I'd be interested in hearing about others that were in close proximity too, especially if it's closer to the modern NFL.

That is, the teams you don’t want to see win under any circumstance. Saw a similar thread on r/hockey and figured it’d be a good fit here too.

What’s a position your team never has had to FIX?
We had a post today about positions your team never can get right, what about a position your team has historically and recently gotten right?
For the Seahawks, it’s been running back and d back. Honestly we’ve also had some solid wide outs historically and linebackers the last 15 years have been nice too.

As an Eagles fan for me it is not developing and holding on to good LBs. Hopefully, that changes this time around.
