Severe punishments for Browns, Falcons

Goodell actually said the advantage was not the focus? But that breaking the rule that all 32 teams adhere to was the problem. It doesn't matter if they gained an advantage or not? I am wondering where this Goodell was during Ballghazi? Maybe he got confused and meant to say, " the rules that 31 teams adhere to?"

 I'm not advocating for the Browns or Falcs. Fugg em'. Just pointing out Goodell's bromance for Mark Kraft.

He was texting the asst coach of another team about in game strategies. Plus there is a rule against electronic devices for coaches and personnel on the field. mostly for that reason in particular

Why would he text to another teams coach his own teams gameplan?

The definition of severe penalty exactly matches the penalty the Pats received in 2007. It possible they didn't find any real rule broken. It possible it is still being investigated. Maybe you are referring to a new friendship? One that started after the severe fine in 07?

For information on the teams they were playing against. I guess the coach he was contacting had played against them previously? Which would make sense if they are playing someone in your division that you would want to lose.

    • This play was never designed to go to either DJ or Odunze. The primary read is Burden who is stymied early, with the outlet being Kmet if Caleb doesn't like the option for Burden. Given the situation it's pretty obvious the simple play is to take the free yards with Kmet, or if you want to be aggressive just wait a beat longer for Burden to uncover on his double move. If Moore was ever going to be a viable target in this play then Caleb should have started out reading Odunze to hold the safety in the middle and then coming to Moore, but because he started the snap staring down the right and then came back to the middle late it made it where the safety's leverage remained to the outside of Moore, so he would never have imagined that pass actually being thrown to him in that situation. Realistically DJ's best option in that context is to just occupy the safety to leave a hole open for Caleb to get it to Burden, which is probably why he throttles down vs carrying the safety across.
    • Even with Sonny Styles still on the board I thought it's a no brainer to address the Oline after Icky's injury.  And how can you pass up Fano at 19 given our situation. Then the rest of the draft just kind of made sense with maybe the exception of Klubnik.  But if Canales can fix him and Young goes down. . .I think it's a solid pick. What do you think of this draft?
    • When we didn't trade him to the Rams or the Bears (I believe the Bears said they would take one of Brown/ Burns/DJ Moore) we should have just signed him and kept him.  We should have traded him to the Rams obviously and we should have kept DJ and traded Burns.  We made all three wrong choices with Burns lol.
