Goodell probably appeals Judge Robinson's ruling. It's possible he wants to add a fine ($1-$8M) to the suspension. The Judge spent a lot of time on the "fairness" of the NFL re-writing penalties after the fact (Brady says hi) and this would obviously be looked at in federal court by an appeals judge, once Watson sues Goodell if he reverses the suspension to impose his own.
Once this ends up in the federal courts, it's likely Watson plays 6 to 8 games before any decision is arrived at. As we know, most of the so-far secret findings and arguments will become public. You've gotta wonder if Goodell & the owners have the stomach to drag this out where Kraft & Jerry Jones names will be all over the news again while Watson is playing.
It'll be interesting to see what Goodell does.
