NFL changing procedure for evaluating officials
Quote:
NEW YORK — There is a new man in charge of overseeing NFL game officials, and Dean Blandino is bringing with him some tweaks that could affect how the so-called zebras are selected for coveted postseason assignments.
Blandino, now the league's director of officiating, has implemented a new evaluation process that goes beyond merely ranking officials based on the numeric grading system of previous years. Instead, it will group them in one of three tiers based on their performance. The top tier will be eligible to work playoff games.
Within each tier, the system is designed to allow Blandino and his eight supervisors to have more input in weighing intangibles — such as how they aid other crew members.
