Very few wing officials in a 5-man or less crew can outrun a running back who's broken one north-to-south. If only those that could do this were allowed to officiate, we'd have quite a few empty fields.

There was a kickoff return in the NFL for a TD in the Dallas/Seattle game on Sunday and by the time the returner crossed the goal line, the closest official was 25-30 yards away. They should all quit too, huh?

Also, maybe the guy in the video would keep up better if all those idiots would stay out of his way.
