The Jets were not going to win that game regardless. The Pats are just a flat out better team then them and most teams in the NFL. However, rules are rules and when you break a rule that you have already been warned about, what is Goodell supposed to do? Belichick is a scumbag and his excuse of him interpreting the rules wrong is laughable at best. The rules could not be more explicit.

THis is a very good summary.
This is why Belichick is really not putting up any sort of arguement.
The Pats are not making a huge deal of it either.
I think a forfeit would have sent the best message.
However, the Jets dont really deserve a win.
So give them a lose also, because they did.
The punishment that was doled out will hurt though.
Especially so if McFadden of Arkansas turns out to
be the player that could have been.
