That would just be crazy.

I understand that the punishment NE got from their spygate was harsh and, therefore, many believe that the Saints should also be harshly punished for this. But, the spygate gave NE a direct advantage in their games , and it can hardly be said that this bounty bullsh*t gave the Saints a competitive edge.

It's more about the principle, and I don't think principle should be punished as heavily or more so than a concrete action.

What happens if they take the franchise tag away ths year? Does that mean Brees is no longer under a franchise tag?
