My big question about ousting Jerry Jones would be what happens when he starts blabbing backroom secrets about the NFL.

If I'm another owner, I'd probably think hard about that.

Especially if there was collusion with Kap

Jones is an arrogant loud mouth but he's right to question the renewing of Goodell's contract.  What's the hurry?  The NFL is kind of mess at the moment (sliding ratings/attendance, CTE, protests,etc.).  If they renew his contract they're basically stuck with him for another 5-7 years. 

I don't think there's any love loss for Goodell from most of the owners.  They're keeping him around for three primary reasons:

1. He's made them a lot of money

2. There is no heir apparent 

3. Upcoming CBA negotiations

I think the CBA negotiation is the most important to the owners.  Goodell got the owners such a favorable contract last time, they are hoping he can repeat that type of result.  At a minimum, the idea of leaving those negotiations up to an unknown commissioner scares them more than the status quo, even with the current negatives.
