Change a turnover, first down, score?  Remember, this isn't the call coming from down on the field, like a challenge.  It is a trained person in he box, with instant video replay seeing something that was blatantly missed and calling down to get it corrected.Second, I would rather slow the game down a minute or two for each of those bad calls, if it means getting them right and potentially changing the outcome of a game.</blockquote>
