Quite often they get it wrong, or CAN'T change it, or it is not allowed to be reviewed.

Huge waste of resources, and really takes away from flow of game.

The NFL replay rules states that possesion, as in the case between the DB and receiver last night, is not reviewable.

so what were they reviewing?

Proper call would have been to say that the Tate simply did not catch the ball.
you dont have to say Packers intercepted, you just say it was not a catch by the seahawks.

Replays= more commercial time. I guess its not about trying to get it right.

Not true. It is reviewable if it is in the end-zone. Read the NFL's statement they put out, AR has a thread on it.

Absolutey 100% correct. Possession is reviewable in the End Zone only .... should have been overturned.

My mistake on what is reviewable. However, if the offensive P.I. is correctly called, there would be no debate on the catch and whether or not the DB's should have tried to catch the ball or bat it down. That is a mute point if the officials would have flagged Tate for P.I. as they should have. Game over.
