| Under What Authority Does Goodell Discipline Coaches? Posted by kclsufan Since the players only are covered by the CBA, then what covers the coaches? Aren't they employees of the owners who sign their checks? What gives Rog the authority to suspend SP or any coach. Or is he just making this up as he goes along (as dictators often do)?Reply Back to Top |
| I'm pretty sure by signing a contract they agree to be bound by NFL bylaws Reply Back to Top |

| pretty sure there is a coaches union of sorts and giggles, not positive. Nowhere caliber of player's union. Reply Back to Top |
| I don't think there is a coaches union, They have mentioned that this could be the final straw in a push for this. Reply Back to Top |

| They have an association, not a union. Kind of like your local board of realtors. Reply Back to Top |
| there is most certainly an NFLCA, but it is a very very weak group compared to the Players Union. This post was edited on 5/4 at 1:47 pm Reply Back to Top |
quote: I understand that and that's what phelbman said... its nowhere near the caliber of union that players have. Reply Back to Top |
| Because it's not a union. Reply Back to Top |
quote: I'm not a wizard here but seems like you are trying to differentiate the two because you are stuck on coaches association... when in turn... the Players Union is called NFLPA as well.... SO chew on that and let me know. Reply Back to Top |
