Every play is reviewed just like us watching the replay at home and they can override calls like an inadvertent whistle to GET IT RIGHT. And when they DO call the head official about reviewing a play, it's usually judged by the time he gets to the phone. It takes a full 5 mins on many replays... coach waits 30 seconds coach throws flag refs discuss issue with coach ref announces there will be a replay ref walks to replay booth 2 more mins to replay another minute to walk back on the field, discuss fix with other refs, announce, set ball etc....about 5 damn minutes The NFL needs to go to a college replay system.

I am tired of all the crying about this. Then explain to me all you smart charger fans why the chargers couldnt stop Denver on 4th and goal or the 2 pt conversion. get over it. The bottom line is Denver got the win when the opportunity presented itself. BTW CHargers what happened to that great cornerback Cromartie. Marshall abused him. Nice defense also booooohoooooo.

That resulted in Denver also continuing a drive and getting another 7 points. The NFL messed up 2 situations and screwed San Diego out of a win here. The NFL has the power to make this right.

The only players near the ball are Cutler and the Charger. The other players do not stop until the Charger is out of bounds with the ball in his possession. “but there’s no way to be certain that they would have recovered the fumble had the whistle not blown” Were you watching the same game?
