The whole goal of the owners is to decrease the salary of NFL players so that the franchises get a larger share of the revenue instead of small-market teams taking revenue from large-market teams.
Of course that is one of the solutions large-market teams are trying to push so save their own profits.
I don't think your comprehension is too high here
right now ~60% of league revenues go to players
they want more of a 50/50 split
that said, even the shit NFL teams make huge money
I think they just want to firm up what goes into the big pool to divide up
I think most of the owners are smart enough to realize that they make more money overall when the entire league is strong
