Sweet!!!
Unfortunately, not. They are 6 and 8 game suspensions, not 6 and 8 week suspensions.

Not what I've read. Where did you find confirmation on that?

And if so, can they participate during the bye, since its not a gameweek?

Bye weeks count for player suspensions, so why not coaches?

So if true, does this actually make it a 7 week suspension for Vitt and a 9 week suspension for Loomis?

Bounty Bowl: Gregg Williams is gone. First, the former New Orleans defensive coordinator left for the same job in St. Louis. Then, he got suspended indefinitely for his role as the ringleader in the bounty program. But you know Williams’ name, or at least audio tapes of his voice, are going to come up when the Saints play San Francisco. That will be a rematch of the January playoff game that was won by the 49ers. That also is the game that has become the most tangible example to most people of the bounty program. The night before that game, Williams spoke to his defenders and urged them to injure specific members of the 49ers. There’s no doubt those San Francisco players and their teammates will remember Williams’ words. That audio tape likely will get constant play that week -- in the media and in the 49ers' locker room.

Bounty Bowl... that's cute.

Everyone is entitled to be stupid, but some abuse the privilege.

All little common sense goes a long way.

this is how they explained it on ESPN during the Schedule announcement extravaganza show. Mortenson said Vitt would not be back for the Buccaneers game, week 7.

not sure about the bye. I assumed they would not be able to participate since we seem to be getting screwed wherever possible but that could just be me being a pessimist...

Thanks a flippin boatload for that!

We get screwed even longer.

Then again, it does give us an extra week during the interim-interim period to re-adjust. I guess thats the bright side. Ok I'm reachin, but its all I got.

definitely not a coincidence
add in that the bye week is the time to regroup, make adjustments, maybe throw in a few new plays. I f***ing hate Goodell
