All things off season 2015.

new rule change - home team cannot replay plays on the jumbotron when there is a flag on the play and a new snap has not taken place yet.

several lions players say officials were looking at the jumbotron prior to picking up the flag. are flags subject to video review? no.

this is kinda like the clock boy letting a few extra seconds tick off in college basketball if it favors the home team ... or the possession arrow not being changed when it should have given possession to the away team (maryland vs duke)

Yup. That would be an excellent rule.

Here's an interesting tidbit:

one quick question, why is it in the finance section of Yahoo?

Reffing this year either was paid off in some instances or at the least, as abysmal as the replacement refs were, and this is during the playoffs.

I just saw the PI play for the first time. All I can say is Wow!, the guy never turned around, and ran through the receiver. I would say that it just shows that PI should be reviewable, except that I have seen them blow calls after going to replay and then give a bogus justification.

I wasn't aware he was a Cowboys fan until yesterday... didn't think it was possible to have any more disgust for the guy but he pulled it off.

Uh yea, thats a stupid ass move by Christie.
The guy has no class.

Redskins treat Shanahan at an expensive steakhouse and the 49ers treat Shanahan to Chevy's. I think Shanahan will be the new HC of the 49ers very soon.

A source informed John Middlekauff of 957 The Game Bay Area that Mike Shanahan could be hired as the Bills' general manager with Browns OC Kyle Shanahan as head coach.

We're sorry, Bills fans. This would be brutal. Bills in-name GM Doug Whaley was reported to be leading the search for a new head coach, but it's now been revealed new owner Terry Pegula is conducting interviews. The Bills have requested interviews with as many as 13 head-coaching candidates. The Shanahan duo wouldn't be awful in a head coach-offensive coordinator tandem, but allowing them to make all personnel decisions would be taking a huge leap of faith.

per rotoworld....this would be insane.
