Penalties need to start being added to review...

MaineMike : 10/7/2018 7:49 pm
(1) I thought the face mask on Barkley was called right then picked up....I officiate and that was a face mask, he started with his finger on the face mask and it made Barkley head go downward..... (2) Roughing the passer on Wynn was a border line call but in todays standards in NFL you can't breath on a QB. Problem he is a guy like Newton runs lowers his shoulders its okay, but he goes feet first you can't touch him, this is tough on a defender going full speed.. On this play I saw more as a collide than roughing.. (3) back judge Santatore had a bad game, his brother was the white hat who retired and is now working for the networks. On the Thomas call this is why penalties need to have the ability to over rule... Nobody did anything wrong here.... He also threw a flag that was picked up on 3rd down before Carolina's last FG.... Tough game for this crew...

I agree. It wouldn’t even take long to review

No, I'm sure they'd find a way to make each review take 4 minutes.
That is going backwards imo

You are giving the refs an out to make even more bad calls just in case so they can get reviewed. The whole thing needs to be revamped. The constant patch jobs like the catch rule are a fuckin joke. And the bullshit appearance of player safety is beyond ridiculous at this point. They don't give a shit about player safety with short weeks and other shit but they want to give off the impression they care with these bullshit rules.
I'm starting to agree with Belichick

In thinking everything should be open to review.

I think Belichick has it right.

Everything should be reviewable.

Teams shouldn't get additional review requests - just make every play reviewable.

Nothing is worse than a terrible call on a non-reviewable play. And I don't think this will fix all of that, but it might have saved us from the type of awful call we saw today on 3rd down late in the game.
Take most of the refs off the field

And have them advise an on-field ref from a studio with the help of monitors. There are cameras everywhere, even in the lowest priority broadcast, use the cameras and modern technology to your advantage. The game is impossible to call in real time with the naked eye with the newer rules.
