NFL: Pass interference -- both offensive and defensive and non calls -- will be reviewable

hammer1

NFL owners have approved a massive philosophical expansion of its replay review system. For one year only, pass interference -- both offensive and defensive -- will be reviewable, the first penalties and judgment calls ever to be added to the list of approved reviews. Moreover, coaches will be able to challenge non-calls for pass interference. The replay booth, in conjunction with the league's officiating office in New York, will initiate those challenges in the final two minutes of each half. http://www.espn.com/nfl/story/_/id/26367953/pass-interference-now-reviewable-officials

This part should be interesting to see how often coaches use their 2 challenges on non-call PI's.

I feel as though they should have given the coaches an extra challenge to go along with this.

Plenty of time to iron out the wrinkles with the fiber of their soul on the line as per integrity being the foundation of the final decision, rendered . The DT ?

I’m not totally against this really. We all know a PI penalty can put a losing team in an immediate position to win. IE: last gasp miracle throw from their own 20 and PI gets them in FG range.

Extra Challenge is in question. Hear, Hear, Hear,...? Also, Not For sale signs should be printed on flags that are in back pocket or chosen location of the individual causing the
