Officiating

I wonder how the use of replay is influencing officiating. It seems that they are more willing to make questionable calls because maybe in their minds, the questionable calls can be corrected by another official which removes pressure from the refs during games.

The holding calls are inconsistent. There were a couple holding calls called on the Rams secondary that was non-existent, even under close scrutiny. It is as if the refs are willing to call False Positives in order to avoid miss calls this year.
