To me it just should have been handled with a simple phone call by someone in the league office to the head coach. A warning should have been given and be done with it.

Yeah. You're an idiot.
What does the NFL sell? Incredibly competitive football games. So competitive that they draw in the emotions of millions of fans willing to pay tons of money to attend those games, watch them on TV, buy concessions, buy jerseys, etc. etc.
But as soon as the competitiveness of the very product they're selling is compromised, you're talking about risking the Golden Goose.
The time and money spent on the Wells report pales in comparison to protecting the immense revenue stream their competitive games generate.
