I think people get so used to seeing replays fifty times, all in slow motion of course, that you think you're infallible.


Try watching a game at real time, at field level, and tell me how simple it all is.


And I guess some fans won't be happy until every play is reviewed and we have five hour games. Did you notice how long the 49ers/Seahawks game took? It's getting as bad as baseball.


And no one won, or lost, because of terrible officiating.
 

That is why I complained about the play not being reviewable - the fact that at full speed, it is not always obvious who recovered the football but in slow motion, it often is. If that play was reviewable I would not be mad at the zebras for calling it wrong because Jim Harbaugh was ready to challenge it.
