While I'd certainly argue that all of this is much to do about nothing, a big misconception is that this exonerates Brady, that's far from the truth as well.
It comes down to that Goodell tried to manufacture a scandal ( or at least take a scandal to higher levels) without having any proof. He hired an investigator to pretty much return the finding that he wanted. He then pulled out an arbitrary punishment without any reasonable precedent. Then he decided that he would serve as the "impartial" arbitrator when impartial is the last thing that he could be, and maintained the ridiculous punishment. Goodell just screwed up at just about every step of the way, and Berman is calling him out on it.
