I'm decidedly on the side of not reviewing any more stuff than the league now does, and I pity their Competition Committee (a mix of execs and coaches), who's going to get an even-greater volume of cases when they have to review replay rules after the season. I'm curious to know how much the quality of replays improved in the games that ain't sent to the whole country week in and week out... I can't expect it to have improved much, even in the HD era.
