NFL RULE 17 Section 2 Article 1

[fred rerun berry]

“The Commissioner has the sole authority to investigate and take appropriate disciplinary and/or corrective measures if any club action, non-participant interference, or calamity occurs in an NFL game which the Commissioner deems so extraordinarily unfair or outside the accepted tactics encountered in professional football that such action has a major effect on the result of the game."

Will he do the right thing?

 

[Wolegib]

No ! His action was to send out an apology to saints fans. No further action will be taken!

Spine transplants are too expensive. He needs some gonads too!

 

[FirstDownB]

The answer is no. The real question is would he if it were the Patriots or Cowboys instead of the Saints.

The answer is no. The real question is would he if it were the Patriots or Cowboys instead of the Saints.

No to the Pat's...maybe to the Cowboys. He has no sack so it'd be a stretch for him to do anything.

Can you imagine the wave of impact if he were to deem the call was such a calamity that he needed to be reversed from the front office? Referees, coaches, players, and fans would just erupt. This has never occurred and the commissioner would open himself to further scrutiny and involvement. Plus, the NFL is in a bad spot already due to the kneeling debacle. As painful as it is, the correct course of action is for the commissioner to stay out of this.

Now, it would be a huge redeeming factor if the Rams were to forfeit the game but that wont happen.

silly question... you saw how he handled the kneeling crap going on. He's got the spine of a jelly fish.

Hell the call is not getting corrected. Can you imagine how many bookies would be gunning for Goodell.
