At this point, Goodell's greatest skillset is his willingness to serve as the forcefield that shields the corrupt Full 32 from direct condemnation by the public. Roger takes all the head shots and the body blows, gets bandaged up between rounds, and then climbs back into the center of the ring (after stopping off at the bank).
He is their useful idiot.
The problem is: Goodell is also the face of the NFL which is a terrible look.
Another issue: The NFL has consciously chosen to flaunt the business of football and their public money grabs across the face of the Earth show everyone where their priorities lie. Displays of greed never sit well with the masses.
Most worrisome to the owners right now: players are getting a taste of the leverage that can be had if they unite. Owners have to hate this most....effing prisoners.
