Time for what? He did know about this right? And with all the press putting in their crap about this. I think this might make it harder. I don't know, just sick to my stomach about this whole damn thing. Lets just move on from here..
Let Carmichael run the offense, spags on the D. Don't bring in the tuna, cause all the hype. Or do and let him just sit back and handle the discipline side of the football.


I'm just sick of hearing about it, seeing it on every web site, tv...This is worse than those soap operas.

So it just buys us time, OK... I'm cool with that hold this crap off like the star caps issue for a few years. Tie it up with some legal crap, until roger leaves the NFL.
DAMN now I feel better about it

I HATE ATLANTA

He'll have a bit more time to come together with the other guys on the team to make the contingency plans for the coming season.

And, he'll be able to finally see all of the evidence against him, which is weird that he hasn't already, but as it was stated - he still wants to view some evidence that he hasn't seen.

And, finally, he isn't going down without a fight.

Payton takes a stand.

Forces more evidence to come to light.

Players may indeed be vilified, his suspension reduced.

Coach taking one for his team...

Priceless

Maybe Goodell's plan all along, was to over turn the suspension and reduce it to 8 games to keep the our fan base happy?

I thought about that also hitta.

We would have been pissed off at an 8 game suspension to start with, but now if he reduces it from 16 to 8 most fans are gonna say fine, I can live with that.

Like everyone said can't hurt and with all the evidence coming out that the NFL has know that betting and bounties has occurred for year and they've looked the other way won't help their case either.

This is just a pipe dream, but how about Payton cutting a deal with Goodell. Something like leave the players alone and I will go away for the year. Heck, wouldn't hurt to try that approach. Yeah, we all know that ain't gonna happen, the damn NFL is out for blood on this one...
