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

Do you see being unable to fix this play by rule as a problem with the replay rules?

No. It's not a big deal to me. I don't bet on the games or play fantassy football.

If the NFL sees enough of this play (I have now seen 1) that significantly alter the game, they will change it. The old "down by contact" ruling when the ball came loose prior to being down is a perfect example. They realized the number of plays were becoming significant, and the scope of the play was equally significant.

So they fixed it.

Until they satisfy you on this, just deal with it.

Again, you were told their reasons for not allowing it. You just do not agree. That doesn't make the decision arbitrary.

Again, you are arguing with officials who did not make the rule and who have no say in the matter. Send an e-mail to Roger Goodell.
