[QUOTE="Pokerbrat2000, post: 816631, member: 7261"] It seems like there is a misconception that if you make any play reviewable, it is going to completely slow the game down and worsen it. That would definitely be the case if the # of challenges were unlimited, but if you limited the # of challenges, I doubt coaches waste them needlessly, but will want to hang on to them when they could have the greatest impact. Isn't it worth a few extra minutes to get a very critical call correct? Or are people in a hurry to get online to discuss for days, how badly that call was blown, but no way to reverse it? Pass Interference in many cases is a very judgmental call and to reverse it, would take clear evidence it didn't happen. If the coach gets a call from his replay coach saying "not enough to overturn", he isn't going to challenge it. While I disagree with the way PI calls are made and enforced, most of the time you see enough evidence to say "sure, I guess so". Or in the case of the Saints game, enough evidence to say "yup, totally missed that one." I just don't understand why people are fine with a team potentially winning/losing mainly due to a blown call by a ref. Give the coaches the opportunity to correct a mistake, but still have to strategize as to what limited # of missed calls they want to challenge, because I have never once seen a perfectly officiated game. reversing a bad call gets us closer to that.
