Obviously the higher the cap number, the better for the Saints. Article says the cap will be between $180-185M but almost certainly on the lower end.

They can make the cap whatever they want. Is 180 vs 198 going to kill the billionaires finances?

That isn't the point. It is agreed upon percentage which the owners are allowing to be raised temporarily because of Covid.
If there was a total disregard then there should not even be a salary cap.

It's not the fact that it will affect their finances but that it's a compromise to forward the salary cap increases in future years against this year's projected shortfall.
Now the finances might jump back (which I think is the hope with new television deals) to make it a small bump in the salary cap increase road (relatively speaking).

That puts the Saints currently over by $62M-$67M...

They could leave the cap where it is and go about their business. But the are reducing the cap which is going to make teams cut players that wouldn't have been cut normally. Just doesn't make sense to hurt the teams when things will be back to business next league year for the most part.

I can't believe this thread has gone this long with nobody saying the league will never recover because of the kneeling thing.

The end is just beginning. The NFL will never recover from the kneeling.
