Cowboys vs Chiefs Facemask Penalty After Replay Review

Post by GameBeforeTheMoney »

Anybody else see this?

TV commentary said that it wasn't reviewable and shouldn't have been called but wouldn't this new rule apply? The way I read this it says that replay officials can advise on-field officials about penalty enforcement with obvious video evidence. What do you think?

That must be the justification as the penalty wasn't called on the field.
Perhaps the NFL will offer an explanation over the nest few days.

It was certainly the right call as the facemask was beyond egregious and intentional and precipitated the unsportsman-like penalty. But the series of events was unlike anything I've ever seen in the NFL.
