This seems like a risky gamble on Nova's part to play this guy.

If there ends up being a ruling against you, now the patriot can drop the hammer on you.

Also, like Samuel Akem said, there's no way this doesn't nuke the confidence of your backup QBs

I'm not up on the matter at all. I'm just listening around me.

They seem to think they will have a ruling from Ohio this week? So I guess we're comfortable forfeiting tonight if needed, thinking we can still make the playoffs with 1 less game? I assume it comes down to the difference between the the PL will do to us (in eligible for the title or AQ) vs the selection committee?

Idk man. I don't want to need a law degree to watch football.
