The real problem is the contradiction in the rules.
Officials are told that where there is doubt they should let the play continue because it can be sorted out on replay. It then goes to replay and the referee is told that the earlier "call" of a fumble must stand because there isn't enough evidence to overturn it. Of course, when the officials didn't make a call because they wanted replay to sort it out, this doesn't really work...
What a crazy system.
