To think that Goodell altered a players suspension to screw a particular team is a serious stretch. If by some crazy, alternate universe chance that he’s out to screw the Saints, it most likely because of Payton and last I checked he’s not a part of this team anymore.
Besides how is it screwing us snyways when we’re gonna have the #1 secondary? I feel sorry for opposing QBs...well not really

If I were this remaining lady in the civil suit, I demand to go to trial and refuse to settle unless it's 5 billion dollars. The Browns and Watson are between a rock and a hard place (through absolute fault of their own).

Goodel doesn’t care about the Saints. It is a 12 week suspension that has a Bye in week 9. Even if you could argue a bias against the Saints it would be because of personnel not a logo and we have changed ownership and head coach in the last 4 years.

I’d rather beat a team with their QB on the field.

I wish this were the case as it would mean Loomis was gone and we didnt trade away all our draft picks. But some personnel remain. Also the NFL has held a grudge against the Raiders too for years. Al David died and still the NFL leaked only one thing from the Dan Snyder investigation, Jon Grudens texts. Anyone who thinks Goodell is neutral after bountygate, the no call, and continued BS like this is probably really a Falcons fan trolling this board.

I know some folks like a good, juicy 'NFL deep state conspiracy', but in the end, wasn't this a negotiated settlement between the NFLPA and the NFL (not a Goodell edict)?

I'm reminded of an old saying: A conspiracy involves at least two or more parties. The reason they rarely work is that someone ALWAYS tells.

Possibly. But I doubt there is a single meaningful thing that happens in the league that doesn’t have Roger’s stamp of approval…officially or unofficially.
