The human element in the game is going to cause errors and much like you stated, different POVs on the same play can appear to provide different results. To stay on the Saints game, the view from BEHIND Brees aside from the 2 facemasks/holds, it APPEARS to be tipped at the line which would negate the PI call. However, the view from back of the endzone shows it was NOT tipped. But that play alone with the face-mask and holds, if they threw the challenge flag on the blatant missed PI and they overturned the call, but ignored those other two calls, I'd be just as up in arms! So now the Saints got a free pass and a first and goal at like 3 when if nothing else, should be re-play of the down? That isn't fair. So how does the league decipher how to sort that out? The argument of "it did not affect the play," well there is another judgement call because you can certainly argue it did. I am all for getting to the point where this has a solution and not "oh well, sh*t happens, that's just human nature to make mistakes." All PI calls are different, all have completely different moving parts to get to the end result. They aren't as cut and dry of a turn over or a crossing of a goal line.</p></blockquote><p></p>
