New OT rules passed. Same system for regular season as the postseason.

All turnovers now will be subject to review like scoring plays. No coaching challenged will be needed.

I agree, how long until they review where the refs spotted the ball?

same. why even have refs? just review every play and penalty
Shit would take a hell of a lot of time to review every singe play
I say dont limit the amount of coach challenges, that way, EVERY questionable play will be reviewed, but not every single play will be reviewed

I mean, what is a sport without a little room for human error by the refs. This is going to slow the game down so much too.

true
I cant even think of many questionable turnover plays...My main ref problems come with bullshit penalties and calls/no-calls, if only there were a way to review those...

As much as fans complain, it happens pretty equally for both teams. Just isn't something we can change.

I like this rule a lot. A blown turnover call impacts the game more than any other play - takes away a chance at points for you, gives the other team a chance at points. No need to waste one of your 2 (or 3) challenges on that.

I like these rules a lot. There have been instances where turnovers that were called lead to big lead changes and momentum changes. Especially when that turnover leads to points created by the defense.
