Replay Officials

So I think this is an interesting topic to discuss. What do you guys think of how the NFL have done with replays at this point of the season

I think they still can't seem to get their poo together myself. Taking our game as an example, Cam's Superman dive that was ruled down on the line. By all accounts of the replay it showed that the ball crossed the line before any part of his body touched out and as a result should have been reversed to a TD. As we all know the officials ended up letting the play stand citing "Not enough evidence to over call the ruling on the field.". A bunch of BS personally but whatever we scored the next play. Compare that with what happened in the Jets vs. Patriots game where the runner briefly has the ball come loose but secures it before going out for what is ruled as a TD. The replay officials go back and look at this and from all replays shown there was no clear evidence to overturn the TD however they end up ruling it a fumble out of the end zone and as a result a touch back and Patriots ball. I know by all means every replay is different but jeez these guys need to be more consistent with their rulings. If there was no evidence on our call then by all means there should have been no evidence on the Jet's call as well.

I think the replay officials are doing a decent job, in my opinion (which is not from a trained expert as them) they still mess up a call every but that is going to happen. 

Also, I agreed with the call on the field and the replay of Cams run from Thursday. There was not definitive evidence that he crossed the goal line. There was not angle of the shot to confirm 100%.

You realize that you can piece the different angles together, right? When you piece together the head on view with the side view, it was clearly a TD. It really doesn't matter since we scored a TD anyway, but that Pats/Jets call... holy fug.

Someone with a basic understanding of math and angles could clearly decipher that Cam had crossed the plane before touching the ground.  I guess the replay officials must be 5 year old kids?

It did matter.  Cost us a time out.  Imo they should always call touchdown when there is any question.  Then neither team has to waste a challenge and potential timeout.

Idk what Popsickle or the replay guys were looking at but it couldn't have been any clearer that Cam reached across the goal line before jis foot was oob...

 

Also just saw that Jets replay, holy poo that was awful... how tf is that a fumble???

At absolute worst, it should have been jets ball at the one.

    • Technically speaking, Fields has been a better QB than Bryce Young in the NFL.  I mean it’s bottom rung comparing by BY isn’t better.  Thats what I don’t get about the talk this week.  We don’t have a QB edge 
    • Might be different against a team with no legitimate pass catching options outside of their rookie TE though.  Their #1 WR tomorrow has 8 catches this season, next best WR receptions number this year is 4. If we can't defend that while Horn travels with their TE, then we have some serious problems.   Maybe we don't end up doing that in the end, but it's probably how I'd be scheming up the defense tomorrow when they have only 1 non RB pass catching option.
    • I fought sleep to stay awake just to watch that fumble on the goal line as we were going in for the go ahead score and said fug it, I'm going to bed. I've seen this movie before. I know how this ends. This bullshit of having California teams in conference with east coast teams is trash. That game probably didn't end until 2:30AM. Hell, it was 2AM at the time of the fumble and there was still 3+ minutes to play. In conference games being played into the 2AM hour for local audiences is terrible for the game. And the worst rule in football really does need fixed. Fumbling through the endzone or a fumble recovers by the D in the end zone should not result in a touch back and the ball on the 20. Fumbling through the endzone should not be a turnover. Fumbling out of bounds isn't a turnover anywhere else on the field. That should be the offense's ball on the one yard line. If the D recovers it in the endzone it should be the D's ball on the one yard line. Everyone knows this and everyone talks about it so just fix it already. If Cal was getting the ball at the goal line instead of out to the 20 I would've kept watching. That's a completely different scenario than the ball at the 20.
