A quick update on some new NFL rules. Today the NFL passed a rule that all turnovers will be reviewed. This adds on to last years rule, that all touchdowns are reviewed. I am on the fence with this rule, only because it leaves very little left for the coaches to challenge. Pretty soon the coaches may not even have a challenge, everything might as well be taken over by the booth officials.
Another rule change is that the regular season overtime will now be the same as the playoffs. This means that teams will not be able to lose on a first-possession field goal. I agree with this passing. There is no reason to change the rules once the playoffs start, this way fans, players,and coaches have all year to prepare and get use to the new rule.
