[QUOTE="Pokerbrat2000, post: 769436, member: 7261"] No doubt interpretations affect the game. But which one do you trust more, the one made in a split second or the one made after a replay? I totally agree with you, I don't want to see the game dragged out excessively to try and accomplish this, but with technology and clear definitions for interpretation, the NFL needs to make it clear that these calls need to happen fast. But we are back to your "interpretation" thing and that is what I believe slows the process down. Leave too much grey area for interpreting a fuzzy rule (like the catch rule) and you have wasted time and still have controversy. Make the rules clear, limit the amount of time that a play can be excessively poured over by every camera angle and go with the call. I also don't believe any review should be done by a ref on the field. Put a fresh set of eyes on it and someone who is actually viewing it on a screen that is large enough to see it clearly. [/QUOTE]
