We paid a lot of money last year in bonuses, which drove up our costs, a lot. Last year, we lost 139 million, this year, 219 million.

Who made money last year:

Washington, Tennessee, Phily made a ton of cash, Baltimore, Chicago, Cincinnati, Dallas, Green Bay, Indy, and New Orleans. 10 of the 36 teams made money, Note that no expansion team is among them. Most of these are the biggest population centers. Phily had a revenue stream of over 600 million we brought in less than 150 million. We have a smaller stadium fewer people and can charge less money without an established fan base.

I have the 3rd cheapest scout in the league and the cheapest head coach by far. I pay my head coach 3 million, the next lowest is 4.38, then 6.7 at third lowest. I was over 25 million under the cap last year. It’s not as if I’m not minding my Ps and Qs.
