i don't think the nfl is concerned only because of bounties.

the saints lied to investigators and did everything they could to get out of any trouble in the initial investigation, which the nfl finally closed.
then they continue to do what they'd been investigated for-not a cunning plan.
then there's the fact that former players are now filing suits over injuries; the nfl cannot in any way show a lack of policing on things like this. they certainly want to avoid having to pay millions now and in future to players.

sure it's happened elsewhere, but i'm sure the nfl wants that to now only be a part of their past.

Everytime Tom Brady was in the pocket for more than two seconds in the Super Bowl I was yelling "Break his fucl<ing neck!"

Talk is cheap.

The Saints played defense like a finesse dome team every time I watched them last year.

When your QB throws for over 5k yards and you're only playing on wildcard weekend...your defense isn't doing so hot.
