Instant Replay

That critical last 3rd down spot last night was one of the worst of the season, compounded by when the linesman moved the ball forward another two feet after the already generous spot. And while I give credit to Torico for explaining why there wasn't going to be any booth review, that play typified some of the absurdities of instant replay. To wit, that play can only be booth reviewed if the Saints actually got the first. Ironically, the Falcons got screwed by the linesman not moving the ball 4 inches more.

If the Eagles do wind up with the #3 seed, do you think the NFL really screws them by scheduling their wildcard game on Saturday and giving them another short week - and their 3rd game in 10 days?
