Ok and why should they be stripped of it and then just given to the AFC champ? THen they should take away all of the Saints wins that year, which would alter all of the NFL standings that year and replay that NFL post season to see who the "real champ was

I still don't see the point.
Games evolve. I get that.
But what's next? Two hand touch?
Flag football?

Yeah, they certainly couldn't award it to a team that didn't win it. It would just be a year with no champion. Ain't gonna happen though but like I said the league is coming down so hard that it only seems fitting that they should act like that championship didn't happen.
It would be like stripping Abraham Lincoln of his presidency because we find out he did something illegal and imoral

Something is outlined in the rules as highly illegal and if someone breaks those rules, its ok because it evolves the game?

Originally posted by Check View PostRight, it did happen but you don't see it in the record books and as people die people forget. For example a program like SMU. Majority of people have no idea that this program was a powerhouse in college football because they were complete erased from the record books. If the NFL stripped the Saints championship, gone are the banners, the stats, and the videos. People will either forget it happened or die off.
Its one of the dumbest concepts i've ever heard
