Most of those plays are coming against teams on the road. I guess they dont want a repeat of Cleveland or something. The refs are graded on how many calls are overturned due to replay. and the less that are overturned the better for the refs. When they make the "irrefutable evidense" call its basically saying the call was SO close that they just couldn't reverse it, which like I said at the end of the year is a plus for that ref crew. But in most of those calls, its very obvious the call on the field was wrong and they just dont want to change it, because that makes them look like a bad crew. Replay is just not getting it done this year. I have seen several calls that I thought no way could they uphold that call, then that famous saying, after review, yada yada yada, play stands as called on the field. what a cop out!
Instead of getting reviewed on how many calls are overturned or not, how about getting reviewed on how many they got right! What a novel idea.
