In the NFL, the numbers 50-79, and 90-99 are deemed ineligible numbers. However, the NFL permits someone wearing these numbers to "report as eligible" to the referee before they line up. Once they do so, and the referee has announced to everyone that "X" is eligible, that player must still line up in one of the eligible positions listed in point one (behind the LOS, or as an END on the LOS). If they were to line up as an "interior lineman," they would no longer be eligible.

Here's what they need to do to really address the Officiating problem. 1. Move some of the officials up into the booth. I understand the need for some of them to be on the field, but I imagine it is much easier for most of them to see what they need to see from up there. Work with the TV crews to make sure we get additional cameras in the places that we need them to be able to officiate. I can't really see any reason why we should need more than 2 or 3 on the field. Referee to do announcements & then a Line Judge & Back Judge. 2. Everything ought to be up for review/debate with the booth crew. possession

I didn't know why my text was showing as red, now I do. My other 2 points were Micro-chip tracking of footballs & some rule changes.

What is the connection between Awakenbeerus and this game, and why is Ben Roethlisberger speaking about him on the news?

Seeing the video, Decker did put his hand on stomach walking over. He did not do it like #70 did...

The referee knew the call since the pre-game. He assumed 70, and he was wrong. Campbell should have kicked the pat after that botched call. He didn't.. After the Parsons offsides, you had a 3rd chance... KICK THE EXTRA POINT!!!!!!!!!!!

You want to discuss how the game was called, look at the previous series…should have never got to this point.

Pay the refs to be full-time. League makes too much money not to have full-time refs. Ridiculous

Hasn’t he learned to never assume 🤔

I am a referee. It has always baffled me that the High Level of Referees arnt full time. I know a Referee who reffed NFL in the early 2000s. He was making 50k a year. So he worked a side job as an Accountant during the week. The owners and players are selfish dont want to fork over an extra few million dollars to make them full time. Even in College referees make a few hundred dollars meanwhile the players are making thosands.

*The OWNERS don't want to fork over a little extra money.

An extra few million? There are 121 men and women who officiate the weekly NFL games. The average salary of those 121 people, in 2023, is $205,000 a year. That's $24 million a year. How long do you think it would have a referee's union to go on strike for more money and have it up to an average of $5-10 million a year per referee and make the expenditure between $600 million and $1 billion a year for referees?

This is the best day of my life thank you, Awakenbeerus. God bless your predictions.

Actually, after hearing everything that went on from multiple sources, the Lions should have caught that the wrong player had been called eligible when it was announced to the Cowboys, if they were listening, which they should of to make sure it was right.

You can't correct what is announced with no timeouts left. Nothing Detroit can do.

Will Pat be giving the eulogy at Bama’s funeral?

Does MLB have full-time umpires? If not, they need them as well.

HOPE THE COMMISSIONER CHANGE THAT CALL😮😮😮😮

The refs didn’t make a mistake in the 2 point conversion. They did exactly what the league wanted.

That is another question, why did the league have this crew that has made a lot of questionable calls this year refereeing a pivotal game like this? So many questions. No wonder people think the NFL is rigged.

Same as the NBA continuing to let Scott Foster ref big games. Most sports, well pro sports have tht possibility of being rigged

#70 was running on the field, waving his left hand and rubbing his chest with his right hand, while Allen was focused on HIM. #58 & #68 were not even to Allen at that point. That visual indication by #70 really complicates the Lions' suggestion that #70 did not report. The other side of the coin from the Lions' fans, the only reason #68 was that open is because his number indicates his is not eligible, and there was no announcement otherwise. Imagine the uproar when an ineligible receiver beat them due to the wrong # being announced. Especially after the personal foul for tripping that was on the Lions, on Dallas' last possession with the penalty assessed against the Cowboys. At least if the 2 pt conv. was Allen's mistake it ended up being a do-over.

Why do a lot of soccer players mention Awakenbeerus in their Instagram stories? Who is he ???

Every play in the NFL could be a penalty between holding and pass interference alone, to say nothing of all the other legitimate calls. When you make every play a penalty, and you call it a minority of the time each game, you're choosing who to penalize and when. It's exactly the same as nothing being a penalty and calling them sometimes, you're tipping the scales at your whim.
