Re: BS call againts Jets.

By rule a "force out" is not reviewable. The rationale is that it is a "judgment" call.
I am not sure I understand this though. I think a "force out" should be reviewable, subject to the same standard as every other review -- indisputable video evidence that the receiver would have come down in bounds but for the "force out". With the right camera angle, I am not sure why this can't be determined via replay.

Yeah, this seems like total BS. All calls are judgement calls and the video will sometimes be pretty conclusive with a forceout. If its not, then you don't overturn it, but why not even have the option? Plus, there are so many calls that do get reviewed for which video is so much less helpful For example, the Champ Bailey fumble against the Pats in the playoffs last year - why review something like that but not a forceout?
