If it were New Orleans reaping the benefits Roger Godhell would make it against the rules but since it's the Patriots the NFL is happy to try to give them every advantage. He did something similar with our accounting decisions of kicking money down the road iirc. It will make it harder for Loomis to make it happen with Der Commissar's meddling.

Good God, I don't wish anybody ill will and try not to hate people but that man is testing my patience!
