Browns Ravens

This has to be the dumbest article I have ever read.

He goes on and on about how the Ravens should have a legitimate reason to complain about being inconvenienced by having to re-suit -up after walking off the field before the Refs had made their final ruling on the game-tying field goal.

First there was the whole CBS can't air live coverage thing because Fox had the doubleheader this week, then this article. Wow, the lameness just exudes from the media's coverage of this game.

Yeah, and from what I heard later it WAS a re-viewable play because it hit the Poll. I also didn't EVER see them give a "No Good" Call.

The Media was really bad about reporting on it though, because I heard them claim it was a "No Good Call, that got reversed."

If you see a replay, watch the Back Judge or Field Judge on the right of the screen when the ball hits the ground.... he immediately gives the other judge the "uh, oh, did you see that? because I wasn't really looking and I think something weird just happened" look.

Pretty funny.

At the end of the day, the most important thing is the referees got the call right. The ball clearly hit the post behind the poles, so the kick was good.

Yeah. In my opinion almost every play should be "reviewable" otherwise what's the point? Sometimes I even wish they would review missed penalty calls, but that would probably get out of hand pretty quick :)

But in reality, a coach only has two challenges, and if he loses he loses a time out. So really being able to have them call for a review on any play, no big deal. They might just have to set up rules for the under 2 minutes Review Official Reviews.
