It's like the NFL has gone to WWF for ref's.

The down by contact rule is a joke but I can't think of a good way to change it. I guess the reason the rule works the way it does is so a player doesn't pick up a fumbled ball and score while everyone else sits with their thumbs up their butts since they heard the whistle. Problem is, if they tell refs to curtail the quick whistles then we'll start seeing guys getting piled on after their down and there doesn't seem to be a good way to augment to rules to make this more defense friendly. I guess maybe they should get rid of the crappy refs like my man says.
Good idea on the inconclusive replays but then the refs are left to decide when the replay is inconclusive and when the challenge was just plain wrong. Now we expect these dunces to get this right also? Man this starts the ball tumbling down the mountain.
