    Detroit has the overall best set of players in the nfc north, no question. Maybe top 3 in the nfl. The Team though is top15, top 10 on a generous day, due to coaching and front office staff. I think they could go into Seattle and shut them down, but I also feel they could just as easily lose a game to tampa bay in detroit. Betting any money on a game they play is a fools errand, especially with so little reward for the risk.

    Hahahahahah. No.

    Secondaries remain a thing.

    They started with one of the weakest secondaries in the NFL

    And since the start of the season they've experienced injuries exclusively in that weak part of their lineup

    Just wait, this weekend that secondary will look like like the best secondary in NFL. I just know it.

    If that ESPN report is accurate, Rog is probably good and fucked.
    Just hours after running back Ray Rice knocked out his then-fiancée with a left hook at the Revel Hotel Casino in Atlantic City, New Jersey, the Baltimore Ravens' director of security, Darren Sanders, reached an Atlantic City police officer by phone. While watching surveillance video -- shot from inside the elevator where Rice's punch knocked his fiancée unconscious -- the officer, who told Sanders he just happened to be a Ravens fan, described in detail to Sanders what he was seeing.

    Sanders quickly relayed the damning video's play-by-play to team executives in Baltimore, unknowingly starting a seven-month odyssey that has mushroomed into the biggest crisis confronting a commissioner in the NFL's 95-year history.

    "Outside the Lines" interviewed more than 20 sources over the past 11 days -- team officials, current and former league officials, NFL Players Association representatives and associates, advisers and friends of Rice -- and found a pattern of misinformation and misdirection employed by the Ravens and the NFL since that February night.

    [...]

    The Ravens also consulted frequently with Rice's Philadelphia defense attorney, Michael J. Diamondstein, who in early April had obtained a copy of the inside-elevator video and told Cass: "It's f---ing horrible." Cass did not request a copy of the video from Diamondstein but instead began urging Rice's legal team to get Rice accepted into a pretrial intervention program after being told some of the program's benefits. Among them: It would keep the inside-elevator video from becoming public.

    For its part, the NFL -- which in other player discipline cases has been able to obtain information that's been sealed by court order -- took an uncharacteristically passive approach when it came to gathering evidence, opening itself up to widespread criticism, allegations of inconsistent approaches to player discipline and questions about whether Goodell gave Rice -- the corporate face of the Baltimore franchise -- a light punishment as a favor to his good friend Bisciotti. Four sources said Ravens executives, including Bisciotti, Cass and Newsome, urged Goodell and other league executives to give Rice no more than a two-game suspension, and that's what Goodell did on July 24.

    [...]

    When evidence of it [ed:the elevator footage] surfaced anyway, the NFL and the Ravens quickly shifted gears and simultaneously attempted to pin the blame on Rice and his alleged lack of truthfulness with Goodell about what had happened inside the elevator.

    [...]

    Last week, Goodell told CBS News that, during the disciplinary meeting, Rice provided an "ambiguous" account of what had happened inside the elevator. And in its Sept. 12 letter justifying the indefinite suspension, the league said Rice's account was "starkly different" from what was seen on the inside-elevator video. Four sources, however, told "Outside the Lines" that Rice gave Goodell a truthful account that he struck his fiancée. Furthermore, it would seem that if Rice had given an "ambiguous" account, sources say Goodell had even more incentive to try to obtain a copy of the in-elevator video to clear up any lingering questions. But he did not do that. "For you not to have seen the video is inexcusable," a league source told "Outside the Lines." "Because everybody was under the impression that you had."

    [...]

    Bisciotti and the team released a letter to Ravens season-ticket holders contending that the team had not seen the video until the morning of Sept. 8, when TMZ released it to the public, and that they found it "violent and horrifying" and had voted unanimously to release Rice. Bisciotti also stated that the team would be donating $600,000 to the House of Ruth, the Baltimore shelter for battered women. Rice and his friends read the letter with barely concealed contempt and disgust. "I think a lot of people were quick to say 'Oh what a stand-up guy,'" Jakobe said. "I think if you look at it objectively, it's a massive cover-up attempt."

    Minutes later, Rice's phone buzzed. He could scarcely believe what he was looking at-- back-to-back text messages from Bisciotti. Rice read them aloud so everyone in the room could hear them:

    Hey Ray, just want to let you know, we loved you as a player, it was great having you here. Hopefully all these things are going to die down. I wish the best for you and Janay.

    When you're done with football, I'd like you to know you have a job waiting for you with the Ravens helping young guys getting acclimated to the league.

    Rice was flabbergasted. One minute Bisciotti and the Ravens were essentially calling him a liar, the next Bisciotti was quietly offering him a job? Rice took a screen shot of the message, but Jakobe reminded him that anyone could send the text and simply change the name in the contacts to "Steve Bisciotti" to make it appear it had come from the Ravens owner. So Rice deleted Bisciotti's name in his contacts and took a second screen shot of his phone, leaving only the message and the cellphone number. That way there could be no denying who had sent it. "I saw the text; [friend] Courtney Greene saw the text; and Ray actually read it out loud to us," Jakobe said. "I saw it probably more than anybody." One of Rice's friends provided the text's content to "Outside the Lines," which confirmed through two independent sources that the number listed belongs to a cellphone regularly used by Bisciotti. A few days later, after thinking about it more, Rice told friends he believed Bisciotti was suggesting that, as long as he kept quiet and stuck to the story that he had misled team officials and Goodell about what had happened in the elevator, the Ravens would take care of him down the road. He felt incredibly insulted.

    [...]

    The league would eventually defend the indefinite suspension by saying Rice gave a "starkly different" account on June 16 from what Goodell watched on the TMZ inside-elevator video. But the Ravens have had difficulty sticking to that storyline. On Sept. 10, Bisciotti, Newsome and Cass granted a lengthy interview to The Sun, explaining why the second video "changed everything" and led to Rice's immediate release. But when asked by the Sun whether the video matched what Rice had told them months earlier, Newsome conceded that it had. "You know, Ray had given a story to John [Harbaugh] and I," Newsome said. "And what we saw on the video was what Ray said. Ray didn't lie to me. He didn't lie to me."

    Right, proper, fucked.

Sure, s/he would talk about change, but s/he would still ultimately give the same empty promises, bullshit non-answers and endless deflections that Goodell gives now.

    I think that's part of the reason that Condi was floated as a replacement, she's from outside the NFL and might be able to breathe some fresh air into the league office. As opposed to someone like Goodell who has spent his entire professional career in the league office. Quite possibly a vain hope, but someone competent from outside the league is probably a better choice than someone from within.

    Keep in mind, these problems aren't limited to the NFL. It's not even limited to the other sports leagues. You don't think those corporations that issued those "strongly-worded" statements wouldn't be running this exact same playbook if they were on the receiving end of the angry mob? Anheuser-busch, Pepsi, Proctor and Gamble and everyone else that is scoring PR points by taking shots at the NFL now would be dodging the issues just as hard as the NfL until this blows over.

    I wasn't trying to stump for her nor do I disagree with your point about the next commish still answering to the same group of owners. I do think going for someone outside the league shows, whether it's true or not, that the league is serious about changing some of it's cultural issues. I also think someone less beholden to the owners for their entire professional career would be less likely to sweep an investigation like the one about Rice under the rug as a favor to their golf buddy.

  • Santa ClaustrophobiaSanta Claustrophobia Ho Ho Ho Disconnecting from Xbox LIVERegistered User regular
    Remember that Major League Baseball created the commissioner position as a response to gamblers fucking with the World Series. True, the NFL owners may not be as interested in giving up any of their control (and also true, the MLB owners basically neutered the commissioner's office), however, if this snowballs they may find a need to separate the connection between the owners and the commissioner.

    The league wanted Rog to slap Rice's wrist and he did. Now that they got caught out, he's doing what they really hired him to do and insist that they did nothing wrong. But nobody is buying it. Add in the concussion issue and Snyder and who knows what else is really out there just waiting to come to light. Corporations may be pretty soulless, but if they think their association with the league won't help them, they'll want out.

    Given the right set of circumstances, it can hapen.

    the CBA says something to the effect that assuming no new information comes to light, you can't re-punish a player for the same infraction

    he's not going to sue the league, but the union will appeal everything past his initial two game suspension and almost certainly win

    If that ESPN report is accurate, Rog is probably good and fucked.

    Actually, from what I read in that piece, Roger is in good shape. He's said that NFL offices did not see that video. The fact that Ravens personnel saw it fucks the Ravens, but it backs up Goodell's assertion that neither he nor his people saw it, and that he made his judgement solely on testimony. Everyone already knows that the NFL offices put in a single official request for the video, it was rejected, and then did not make further attempts to get it, and this report backs that up.

    Meanwhile, the owners are going to be fine with Roger. He's doing what he was hired to do, which is be the face and take the blame when things go bad for them. The only way Roger is out is if the NFL's ratings take a nose dive and sponsors start to pull out from real revenue streams, not these charity pieces they do together. A recent independent survey showed that 85% of the NFL audience doesn't care about any of this, they just want to watch football. As a point, even with the crappy game last night, over 9million people tuned in to watch it on CBS. Sponsors are not going to walk away from that.

    Nope, because the NFL is not the government, and you have no protections from private industry doing whatever the hell they want to you when you are their employee. However, Ray Rice is part of a Union, and double punishment in this case goes to arbitration (normally before Goodell, but he's already announced he will be recusing himself from this and the NFL and NFLPA will jointly agree to the arbiter). All Rice can get out of it his his suspension lifted.

    this kind of thing is so silly; the commissioner will 'change the culture' or whatever at the precise moment they have a mandate to from the majority of the owners to do so; that will only really happen once sponsors start turning on them, which seems at least to be starting to happen

    either way they'll probably just let goodell twist this season though; they'll let him do the job of being the fall guy for all this stuff, then bring in somebody who can at least somewhat plausibly talk about 'moving forward'

    If the NFL somehow blows up because of this, some other league will be reformed with pretty much the same markets that are in the league right now. Maybe the bureaucracy will be changed and a head of Internal affairs appointed whose sole job is to independently investigate every single off the field issue that happens so that the NFL can't say "uh, we didn't know the true extent of what happened." though it wont happen, someone somewhere is gonna get canned for this and its not gonna be Goodall.
