Is the NFL ever going to use logic with its replay rules?

To streamline the process, some types of plays have to be reveiwable. Most review systems have started by saying only specific types of plays are reviewable while the rest are not. As situations happen, the reviewable plays naturally get expanded.

Your initial premise, that there's no logic behind the current system, is flawed. You may not agree, or like, or buy, the logic: but there is logic to the system.

I wasn't talking about penalties. It's clearly a flaw in the rules that didn't allow today's play to be reviewed, and the reasons people have stated in this thread don't really justify it not being reviewable.
