And I'll be patiently waiting for Mr. Goodell to fine the Bills and Redskins for the same thing that happened in New Orleans.
The no bounty rule is posted in every locker room. This speaks to the integrity of the NFL and thwey have every right to defend their integrity.

Detroit Lions defensive end Lawrence Jackson took a similar stance.

“In every locker room, it’s posted clearly: No exceptions to the rule on bounties for hurting people,” he said at a sports conference in Boston Saturday. “I just don’t believe it’s right, on a human level.”

If players ignored that sign, lied to the league investigators then they deserve whatever comes next when they're caught
