You would almost need to be a fool to not realize the role rules play in any sport.

One of the rule changes this year was the Unsportsmanlike Penalty for challenging an 'Unchallengeable Play', i.e. a play ruled a score.

Instead of just ignoring the Head Coach and reviewing the play like the new rule states, the coach gets flagged for challenging.

There are other plays that can't be challenged. No penalty for challenging those, though.

Some times the play that gets an automatic review wasn't a score at all.
And even worse, some times plays that are scores don't get an automatic review.


eh...i ran out of gas, anyone got another one?

yeah we were all afraid of this when replay came in... it'll be a while before everything is hammered out... i love how it's already changed receivers. any time a player catches a crazy diving attempt... he immediately rolls to his back. imagine how many catches would not have been over the years!
