New Orleans Saints Player Bounties: 5 Punishments NFL Should Consider

The New Orleans Saints "Bounty Program" has seemed to rock the NFL over the last few days.

How can a coach like Gregg Williams even consider running a program that rewards defensive players for taking opposing players out of the game?

What's even more disturbing are his comments made on Friday, where he said, "It was a terrible mistake, and we knew it was wrong while we were doing it."

So, Williams is admitting that he knew it was wrong during the process of doing it, so the "I didn't know" defense isn't going to work here. It's sickening that even though he knew it was wrong, he did it anyway.

NFL commissioner Roger Goodell is now in a position where he has to make a decision on what to do about this situation.

He can't simply ignore it and hope it goes away. That will only anger other players, teams and the fans.

So, what does Goodell do?

The following are five suggestions for Goodell when it comes to the Saints and for Williams, who is now the defensive coordinator for the St. Louis Rams.
