I am just going to root for them as always and root for the guys who I think have heart and don't think they need to be the highest paid in the league at thier position even though they haven't won the big one. Like Yoshi, Moss, Irwin, Vonn, Pratt, WIlson, Teddy K, Cappas, Orlando, CTB, etc
That's really a great way to do it. This is an opportunity for the other WRs to shine. And if they do, it might incentivize Chase to just take the money offered regardless of structure.
On that note, I have struggled with some pessimistic thoughts about this team. I'm not going to criticize samhain for saying the sort of thing that I also think at times (some of the specifics vary). But I do enjoy football and I'm here for it. Last year I enjoyed some of Jake Brownings games...though they were stressful. I was kind of unpleasant to be around during the first three quarters of the Vikings game last year...but then of course we came back and won it in exciting fashion. So I'm going to remind myself to be patient and enjoy what I get. I will set my expectations to zero. Which doesn't mean I can't be mad or ever criticize the situation, but it does mean I'm at least open to the idea that we will be successful.
