Plus just think about it, the owners want players to do an 18 game schedule but also take a pay cut. That's pretty ass-backwards. Not that players don't get plenty of money, but they deserve it for all the punishment they take. The median salary of an NFL player is not terribly high either; combine that with the short average career length and high likelihood of serious and long-term injuries and there's no way an average player makes enough money to pay for all their medical bills forever without help.
Besides, I think the 18 game thing is just dumb. It'll cause the last two games of the season to be just like preseason games. By the time game #18 rolls around, most teams won't have anything to play for.
