I think the cap thing is overblown it might be less than 2020 but not by whole lot. I just can't see the players agreeing to that low of a cap along with a 17 game season. 

Agreed.  People latched onto the agreed minimum floor ($176m I think) as if that is the cap, but it is still an unknown value.  That minimum is a worst case value set up to spread the loss over a couple of years, instead of all in 2021.  There have been a number of games that were moved into stand alone slots due to schedule adjustments becaues of Covid, and I'm sure that brought in additional revenues from commercials.  That would help negate some of those expected losses.

(I never checked the link, so my apologies if that was already stated in there)
