I'm willing to bet the coaches wont have a case until Goodell reviews the player suspensions. He has to prove there was a pay to injure. so if he cant prove it no way do SP and Vitt stay suspended

Any other time I would say yes, but this has been a huge PR hit for the league. I think they want it to go away.

Goodell is fricked because there is absolutely no way in hell he can prove the intent to injure facet of the case. However, there could be suspensions levied on the salary cap issue if one of those players earned the bounty and it exceeded the Saints salary cap. The Saints players financials would have a bearing on that aspect.

How does this affect our cap? Does it take a hit with Vilma back? Does it take a hit if Vilma is on the PUP?
The Saints had already left space under the cap in case the suspensions were overturned, so they are fine.

I saw a tweet earlier that he needs a week or two. My guess is he goes on the Pup.

The NFL has already confirmed that Goodell will re-hear the discipline for the players based on the "pay-for-performance" status of the case, but also confirmed that the players are eligible to play beginning this weekend.

"Consistent with the panel's decision, Commissioner Goodell will, as directed, make an expedited etermination of the discipline imposed for violating the league's pay-for-performance/bounty rule," the NFL said in a statement. "Until that determination is made the four players are reinstated and eligible to play starting this weekend."
