re: Cowherd says the punishment is for the plot, not the actions.....

"You can get arrested for plotting to kill the President, even without killing the president." He said Saints fans who are saying there is no proof of injured players are off-base and delusional. The punishment is for the plot, not actually carrying out the plot.
What do you make of this thought process?
Bad analogy. There is a big difference between "I'm going to kill that em effer" on the football field than there is "I'm going to kill that em effer" IRL. Context is everything.
The Saints were spewing football rhetoric. If the rhetoric resulted into breaking game rules then the words spoken were not rhetoric. Otherwise the words were for motivational effect only.
Did the Saints words lead to breaking the rules of the game?
