Really? The NFL would rather negotiate w/one group than multiple ones. Let's not forget what came out of the Snyder report the last week, Gumbel's "leash" comment on Upshaw or the lawsuit about NFL pensions & CTE. The owners & NFLPA aren't always enemies. They have a chummy relationship until their CBA is up for negotiation and the war hawks start flappin' their wings. Imagine if RB's broke off. Then QB's will want to. Then other positions will want something. The owners don't want that. Imagine practicing w/o WR's? Imagine games w/USFL QB's? The last thing the NFL wants is the union breaking into smaller groups.
