As much as I don’t like saying this, the NFL most definitely cuddles to their darling teams. 
ie: saints, Green Bay, Patriots, Cowboys etc..etc

Of course the NFL will give special treatment to these teams just because they don't like a rule when it effects them and it is no problem when other teams get the penalties.

That is what the NHL does for some penalties. Those calls from league HQ. It works pretty well.

However, do you really trust the NFL like that? I certainly don't. 

The NHL also limits replay to specific calls and circumstances.  That is very important to making it work efficiently, and keeping it from becoming a whining festival.  In some cases, it may be too narrow, but it is what it is and everybody pretty much accepts that.  In general, if it is not related to a goal or somebody getting hurt (penalty), they don't bother with it.

I also think there is a mentality of "play on" in the NHL that has long since died in the NFL.  People have a delusion that NFL officials should be perfect while the players eff things up on a regular basis.  And, as we have seen, so do the coaches.

I'm with you, I trust the on-field (or on-ice) officials to make the calls more than I trust somebody looking at it on replay remotely.  I think part of the NHL system is the off-ice replay official getting a full understanding of if the official saw the play and if so, their rationale for the call they made.  If they saw it and opted to not call it because it was incidental or it was a continuation of something that had been going on for a while, the off-ice official leaves it alone. The exceptions to the deference to the on-ice officials being calls that are definitive, like whether the puck crossed the goal line or a play was offsides.

I thought it was a good rule. NFL referees are incompetent, biased, and think people are tuning in to watch them. I hate officials. They need to make everything reviewable and their needs to be more accountability from bad calls. 

I thought it was too. Payton threw a hissy fit to get it, the refs threw a hissy fit and decided not to overturn anything. This BS drama is killing the league. There is no accountability for the refs because they are unionized. I say bring back the replacement refs, since there hasn't been any difference between the two, and lets get all this under control. It's the reason why I've stopped watching football all together except for Panther games. I'm tired of refs deciding the outcome of games and hiding behind gray area rules. Bring back replacement refs and adjust what needs to be so that blatant non-calls or obviously terrible calls stop deciding the outcome.

I wouldn't mind if the refs just had trouble enforcing it correctly, with mixed results.  I wouldn't mind if they just decided to stay with all of the calls on the field and never change anything.  But they decided to stay with most calls, but somehow managed to let the new rule benefit some privileged franchises...like the Packers.  

I'm glad its gone, but the league proved once again its more entertainment with coerced outcomes than a real sports league that's decided completely on the field between the players and coaches.

No, it shows what everyone said beforehand. The calls are subjective. To add it to the review process is fuging retarded.

Every snap has someone on the line holding and holding, pushing off or PI in the secondary. Refs can't call everything, it'll always be subjective.

      Lowest Yards Per Completion...All Time.

      By strato · Posted

      That was always the fear, expectation, concern, etc, I had.  Someone showed a still shot from his pick last game and said it showed that the defender closed 3 yards on that ball in the last portion of its flight. I forget the number. 10 yards I think it said but that sounds extreme.  When guys are open by a step, any slowing down to wait for the ball lets the defender back into the play. That sort of stuff makes the margins so small… these NFL CBs are not slow.   It is a league that highly values foot speed; the 40 times and drill times are scrutinized down to the hundredth of a second when evaluating these players on both sides of the passing game. Receivers and defenders both.   My thing with his arm strength (or anyone’s) was always “why do you want to do that? Plus pay extra picks to put yourself in that situation?”. Asking for trouble.     I wish there was a way to measure velocity on the back half of a throw compared to when it left the hand. Or really get accurate reading of the flight time of a ball from the near hash to the sideline, 10 yards down the field. Because teams could use that info. I have always seen this as being a disadvantage with Bryce but it is beyond my ability to quantify it.   I think it would show what that arm strength is really about, a lot more than just measuring how much air can you put under it so it will fly as far as possible.
