As long as the coach has a challenge to use, he should be allowed to challenge any play. There is a time and a place for this.
The league's longest-tenured head coach said Monday that coaches should be able to challenge plays under two minutes.
A key play in the Minnesota Vikings' thrilling 33-30 overtime victory over the Buffalo Bills wasn't reviewed by officials, but that didn't stop the man from asking about it.
The play that was critical in setting up a tying field goal to send the game into overtime should have been ruled incomplete, according to the senior vice president of officials.
The National Football League doesn't allow coaches to challenge plays in the final two minutes before halftime or the end of regulation because they aren't allowed to manipulate challenges to stop the clock.
If the team has a challenge, they should be able to challenge anything. "I'm on record on that."
There have been plays where teams couldn't challenge because of the rules, and that's one example, according to the coach.
You can't challenge progress like that. I'm not saying anything about that. I don't see why a coach's challenge can't be used to review plays that could affect the outcome of the game.
One of the more influential voices in league matters is the one who has been a head coach for 28 years in the National Football League.
Kevin O'Connell said that Davis' reception was in front of him. I did not believe that was a catch. In that mode, that must either be from the press box with the replay official or the replay center. There was no clarification on that. I asked.
At the league's annual meeting, he prefers to keep his comments on the rules of the game out of the public eye.
He said that the rules are the rules after sharing his thoughts on Monday. The committee and league vote on the rules. That's what they are.
