What does Brady have to lose by appealing? Nothing. Goodell's disciplinary decisions have been overturned in arbitration repeatedly. Without looking it up, I'd wager he has a losing record. Brady doesn't look worse appealing, but Goodell can't afford to have another decision overturned.
Added: 2/3rds of the Bengals roster wasn't in the NFL when the last CBA was signed. I think Burfict has a right to complain about his discipline, 2nd longest suspension for on the field behavior when compared to a player like James Harrison.
