I partially agree with the Lions GM.
I think pass interference and personal fouls penalties should be reviewable. Those are two penalties that can really screw up a game if called incorrectly. Especially the personal fouls because a violent hit doesn’t always mean it is illegal.
Detroit Lions general manager Martin Mayhew wants to change what coaches can challenge in terms of instant replay, he said Friday.
Essentially, Mayhew wants to keep the replay rules the same but add a stipulation that if an official throws a flag during the game, that play and penalty can then be challenged by a coach.
His proposal also states that if no flag is thrown, that play can’t be challenged for a potential penalty.
