Yea but think about it, that play had to be reviewed by the real review teams and was let thru as well

The REAL refs would have conferred on the field before announcing what the on-field call actually was, which was NOT done Monday night.

However, in the statement released by the NFL the following day, they revealed that the review dudes could, in fact, review possession in that situation. So, it's possible that the review dudes did not know what the hell to do and simply said, "Inconclusive" and sent it back to the field. Of course, if the field officials had called touchback, they would probably have done the same thing. I'm not sure you could write a script that contained as many screw ups in one play as that one. And to top it all off, the offensive PI wasn't even in the conversation. Muff Boudain couldn't have done a worse job. FAX |

The replay booth only buzzes down to the field. The ref on the field still reviews it.
