Roger Goodell held a media conference at the NFL owners meeting Wednesday in Houston.

The commissioner discussed a number of topics, including the Raiders' potential move to Las Vegas, working on the collective bargaining agreement, declining NFL TV ratings.

Below is a brief roundup of what Goodell discussed.

Raiders' Las Vegas proposal

Goodell faced the most questions about the Raiders' potential move to Las Vegas. While he was asked about the move a lot, he didn't have too much to say, adding there's a “great deal of information we need to gather.”

Perhaps Goodell's strongest quote on the issue was when he said, "We would love to have the Raiders stay in Oakland."

The commissioner added that there needs to be a stadium solution in California first, and there isn't one right now. Raiders owner Mark Davis echoed those comments before Goodell's conference, saying, "Oakland was in the driver's seat, if they'd come up with anything. They came up with nothing. Zero."

NFL TV ratings

Of course, Goodell would have to discuss the decline in television ratings, primarily in primetime games. This has been a hot topic throughout the NFL season, but Goodell didn't seem to be too concerned about it. He was asked directly about the election being a factor, but said, "I don’t think there’s a single reason for it."

"Everyone has theories," Goodell said about why ratings are down. "We work closely with our network partners. We see tremendous strength in our numbers but we also know that two primetime games where we're seeing the most dramatic decrease went straight up against two very significant debates.

"There are a lot of factors to be considered. We don't make excuses. We look at it, and we try and figure out what's changing."

When asked later about the ratings, Goodell said he's not worried about losing viewers for the long haul.

“We don’t think we’ve lost viewers," Goodell said. "I think when you look at ratings, you have to go a little deeper than that. It’s viewers, but also how long they’re engaging for. A lot of times people will leave a game for whatever reason."

Celebration penalties

Another hot topic this season has been the harsh penalties and fines for celebrations/taunting. Goodell said, "The committee looks at this every year," and admitted the league is "making it a point of emphasis" to be on the lookout for such taunts.

Essentially, Goodell wants NFL players to be held to "professional standards" for players at the youth level watching. He understands not everyone is going to agree with the league's calls, but he wants to stop taunting by assessing penalties before they "escalate" into something bigger.

“I don’t think they’re being officiated inconsistently," Goodell said about the calls. “We believe it’s part of being in a professional league."

Developmental league

People have been calling for a developmental league in the NFL for a few years, and Goodell hinted that this could be a possibility.

“I particularly have an interest in it," he said.

The league hasn't really had such a league, unless you count the now defunct NFL Europe. But Goodell seemed interested in starting this sort of league in the near future (2020 or beyond) but needs approval from others before they can move on with any actual plans.

"A developmental league could be something that we want to do, to try and help develop players," Goodell said. "We pick up on rosters from the beginning of the season to the end of the season about 300-400 players on average. Having those players ready to play, as quickly as possible, developed so that their skill sets are furthered, those are all positive things regarding the long-term future of the game."
