I assume it's to censor profanities from the on-field microphones

Doesn't that result in a penalty?

The AAF is shaping up to be a NFL minor league.

That's kinda what they want. I just hope they don't suck.

Generally not unless it's directed at a ref, and even then they'll usually give warnings to knock it off first.

Alliance football is what you get when practice squad QB's get matched to backup journeymen.  At least the league gives those players enough reps and field time to have a chance at the NFL. 

What would change the gameplay: Drop the low grade pocket passers.  Run read-option schemes with QB's who can handle that.  See if any emerge as the next Russell Wilson.

I think the AAF is meant as a developmental league for the NFL. Each AAF team is affiliated with four NFL teams and they have developmental agreements for each player. I can only see this as a positive. The other major pro sports all have minor/developmental leagues, football only had college. NFL careers are usually very short, this also gives guys a chance to play longer than they otherwise might have.

Kareem Hunt signed by Browns. Interesting.

Flacco to the Broncos. They gave up a 4th for another Case Keenum.

..or worse, winding up as a backup to Keenum.

Keenum is probably getting cut or traded.

I know people are going to have a field day with this news. I feel bad for Pats fans, who I'm sure will never hear the end of it.

I think the worst-case scenario for the Patriots is that Robert Kraft ultimately gets pushed out of ownership, with his son Jonathan (who's already team president) taking the reins. That'd be like what happened to former Panthers owner Jerry Richardson, only he didn't have a succession plan in place (having fired both of his sons), so he had to sell the team.

In any case, Bill Belichick is the evil genius of the Patriots' operation. So nothing is likely to change other than some embarrassment, for a team adept at taking controversies (including over cheating) in stride.
