I would like to believe that. But how do you explain the bad officiating even with video replay?
NFL should (if they want to) follow the NHL model. First they recruited younger officials. They went to college and semi pro teams and looked for a specific type of athlete. Guys that were good, fast skaters but were probaly not going to make a NHL roster. They trained them to be officials. Second there should be a replay official to overturn the calls of the refs on the field. End of story Bad call happens call comes over the regs headset. " I'm watching you guys missed that one big time." That's how replay works with calls in the crease on hockey . not sure about offsides or icing. ( we're going to find out soon ) .
