John Mulaney

And that's part of the roll of the dice that has taken place here.

I don't know the exact DNA of that decision last night, but all I know is that I've been advocating for years that there should be, certainly when there's just one game going on, the league official, the head league official sitting in the league office in New York City makes these calls.

That should be the person that's on the phone to the ref.

I mean, in hockey and in baseball, when there are replay reviews, it's the league office that's on the other end of the line

And in the league, there's a video official that's there at the stadium talking to the referees, the one that goes under the hood.

And this is the way coaches have wanted it.

The coaches want, because if you see in college, it's the replay official upstairs who makes the decision.

The college refs are just put a headset on and hear from the person upstairs what they should rule on the field.

But in the NFL, they wanted the referee to have a say in it because they want to see, look in the eye,

the guy who's made the decision and the problem is is the guy who's making the decision right now has no experience in making this decision and coaches

have no confidence in them to make the right decision, which is why these coaches are on edge and screaming and yelling.

I'm still not past the part where the guy in the booth may have screwed this up as well because I do feel like if word was handed down from up above this is an interception, then as a ref who did not want to lose his job or face scrutiny, I would just agree with the guy upstairs and say, I'm just doing what he said.

I just can't say with any conclusivity what exactly happened.

You would think that the person who has got experience upstairs looking at that sees that the guy, Jennings, of the Green Bay Packers who corralled the ball, pulled it against his chest, and the referee on the field, the official on the field who signified touchdown, the other guy signified touchback and interception at the same time, and the guy who signified touchdown, if you look at the play again,

and this is being showed over and over again on our network, ESPN, you could see the guy who initially signaled touchdown as there was a pig pile on top of everybody was in the middle to try and break it all up because I think he realized, I think he just threw his arms up in the air, I don't know why, I don't know what he saw, but clearly, and then what should have happened is those two guys should have stepped away from the play before signaling anything, conferred with each other, the referee, the official, the guy with the white hat should have run over,

This would have happened if it was the regular officials.

They would have had some sort of conference and then made some decision, which is crucial.

The decision is because replay needs to basis something off of what's been ruled out.

Rich, also two things.

One is you're doing a wonderful job over there on the NFL Network.
