The NFLPA is daring the league to appeal the ruling already
Ehhh it'd be useless for the NFLPA to appeal the decision anyways since the final decision of it will come from Goodell and the NFL themselves.
I heard if Judge Robinson issues no punishment, then Goodell can't appeal it. I'm kind of hoping for that for effery purposes.
If she was going to issue no punishment, then the decision wouldn't have dragged out as long as it has. It's obvious that that she's wanted both parties to come to some sort of agreement so she doesn't have to. The NFLPA is banking on the suspension not being an indefinite one or a full year, which is why anything less than that is a win for them.

It definitely won't be a suspension for the entire season. Six games looks like it would possibly be the minimum

I mean he already sat a whole season while they were trying to figure the shyt out. I wouldn’t be shocked at 8 or less games
That was Houston as to why he sat out and not the NFL. They could have played him and forced the NFL's hand to make a decision if they really wanted to do so. The NFL could use that as an argument as to why he should get a longer punishment as players before him have.

There's still a good chance that this isn't over via the league appealing, but at this point, if people are made af the suspension length, their problem is with the judge and their ruling, not the league, Watson, or the Browns.
