Final 2 minutes are now going to take 30. Crap receivers are going to get 40 yard plays because slow motion shows they got touched by a DB. The solution is far worse than the problem ever was.

If that's in place last year during the Saints game they huddle up, talk about it and make the right call and it takes all of 1 minute.
nIdahoSeahawk":zyt6u5vh said:The only thing that makes me nervous is that it hurts teams when there were multiple issues with a play that the refs held their flags on. For example, the Sherman INT a few years back that could have had PI called on his contact with Fitz. There was an illegal hands to the face by Fitz at the start of the play. The refs let both calls go. If that happened this season, it gets reviewed and they call PI, ignoring the call they should have made on Fitz, which would offset.
In scenarios like that, this new rule has the potential to negatively impact the game.

It’s ridiculous that it’s still a spot foul.
Review will help in some circumstances, it will muddy the water in others.
5,10, or 15 yards whatever but get rid of the “spot foul”.
YMMV

Solves both problems, prevents a bad call from literally flipping the game in a tight contest but prevents blatant PI that derails the fun of watching a game.
Someone should have emailed that suggestion to the competition committee.

See, I don't think the game length will be severely impacted, rather, it'll be a nauseating 'will he or won't he' that would make Ross and Rachel blush.

There is like 30 commercial breaks in a football game, they can easily add as much replay as needed and replace the stupid commercial breaks between every kick , change of possession etc....
