I don't think it's about winning at all. Tie it up in court for a while, run depositions, keep the lawyer fees running than ask for a settlement. The insurance companies and the NFL know it will be less expensive to settle than the cost of lawyers and the potential cost if they some how lost.
But Rodgers leads the league in frumpy expressions and negative body language on the sideline, which makes him, like Josh Allen, a unique double threat.

You're a lawyer, right? I get the point about comparative costs but isn't that overly focused on the short term? Doesn't that calculus overlook the likelihood that settling will encourage future frivolous lawsuits that might otherwise never happen? Surely there is an actuarial table somewhere that can tell us something about this.Originally Posted by ThunderDan
No, I am a CPA. I do some litigation work ( divorce and business valuation) and have been sued for multi millions of dollars. (We won but not after $500,000+ in legal fees).
The NFL is always worried about losing one of these suits because if they ever did everyone would sue the NFL. The cost of settling for an undisclosed amount and admitting no liability probably keeps the NFL way ahead in the total long-term cost.
