Jerry Jones goes from "all-in" to needing to "win with less"

The Cowboys were "all-in" in February, but in March, not so much.

About time or slippery slope?

NFL to allow replay assistant to review roughing the passer, intentional grounding penalties

NFL penalties for roughing the passer and intentional grounding that were previously considered judgment calls for officials will be subject to replay challenges for the upcoming season.

In principal, I particularly like that roughing the passer is now subject to a challenge. How many times have we all watched games where they show the replay of this penalty and we ask "THAT was roughing the passer, are you kidding me????" Of course the flip side to this is it's still going to be largely subjective as to the final determination. The blatant blown calls will be obvious, but what about those in-betweeners.

Intentional grounding seems to be a bit more cut-n-dry, altho I suppose there's sufficent gray areas that could merit a challenge.

you musta never played football. This is as bad as the Roy Williams horse collar tackle. This shit will end four or five seasons per year. It will still happen but not at the level it would if ignored.

it ended Pollards ability to be useful even to this day.

Not sure how much it will be effective until we see it but I'm happy that they can at least question some of those RTP calls. I do wish they would tweek the penalty back a bit as well. I'm not a big fan of the forcible contact at times. It's been far too subjective and called when the ref can't really see what actually happened but sees the result and flags it. I hope some of these replays can rectify that part of it. Penalizing a defensive player 15 yards for a textbook tackle is absolutely disgusting when they've basically quit calling the "in the grasp" recently. The guy has to get these mobile QBs to the ground and shouldn't be flagged for it looking like a tough hit.
Personally I would like to see every personal foul immediately reviewed from the booth and called down to the ref to pick up the flag if it's a mistake. It takes all of 5 seconds to watch a different angle.

Negative - More room to manipulate outcomes.

"Positive" - The video the assistant uses will at least match the week after programming, instead of using the video all week to bash the league's refs.

Rich? Dude is in college.

How much are they paying in these NILs?

If they could find a way to limit the mobile QB shit that would help with these problems. Big QBs with big arms and fast minds don't need to be as protected in the pocket.

He's got deals with Chipotle, 7-Eleven, Gataverse and Ellianos Coffee. I'd guess he's sitting pretty.

Rams get 6 regions and the Bills get none? Not even next door Canada?
