These arguments over astronomical pay checks really turn me off from the NFL. I can't really say what I would do in this situation but to ditch the city that loves you because 18mil a year is not enough is pretty lame.

Seriously, Drew wants $23 million? I don't believe it. No one else makes more than $18 million. I think he probably expects $19 and is hardballing because of frustration.
He knows he can't get $23 million and be surrounded by all those yard makers.

Uhh...that's what reality would have you think. Prison rules have no place in professional sports.
I see nothing wrong with handing out bonuses for a job well done (it is there job to make those hits). The hits were all legal and no flags thrown. Any one that has ever played the game has probably gotten pats on the back or a sticker for their helmet for sending an opponent to the sidelines. Next thing you know it will be two hand touch below the waste or the NFFL.
So thats why some of the hits DID draw flags and those that didnt were fined Big Time? Please. And shame on you for cheering on and supporting someone layinh a hit aimed at ending another man's career. That's disgraceful.
Then shame on me, I must have missed something. If awards were given out for tackles that went for the knee or late hits than yeah that's wrong, but the hits I saw were all legal.
You obviously didnt watch the games then. Late hits, high low, knee and ankle targets. Sorry, but pure scum. Its one thing to end the play, its another to end (or try to end) careers. Its a game, not combat.
Those speaking out are saying the pots were for more aggressive tackling and more agressive scarifice of their own bodies, not intentional maiming. The media is using the word "Bounties!"
This crap has been blown out of proportion. There is abosolutely NO EVIDENCE to implicate they were maliciously trying to physically maim opponents.
Those of you that may never have played organized tackle football need to understand, to hit another fully equipped player (particularly another NFL monster), hurts the defenders too.

Tom is making $23M per year right now.
