Would you?

I guess that's a matter of perspective. I for example kind of like the longer extra point.

I'd say almost every two guys would have called that one alike. Those on the fields blunderd monstrously. And in that case, a replay would immediately have made that clear to everyone.

The speed of the game is too much. There needs to be a push to get younger officials on the field. That certainly won't make every call right, but I think it would help.

I still would disagree on new refs.. here is why.. the NFL rule are very complex and like a judge with the rule of law, it takes time to develop those strong interpretations of the rule book just like law.. I prefer to have more experience and also just because someone is young does not mean they are fit.

Even more so than previously.

It's not the Bengals who didn't vote for it, it's Mike Brown. We're going to get smoked this year, bottom of the division. Hope not but we're in the same disarray as the rest of the teams with a worse roster.
