@RapSheet: For the 1st time ever, @NFL is on the verge of having personal foul penalties reviewable for 2015, I’m told. It’s on the agenda for spring

Interesting. I like the idea behind it because so many of those are such huge penalties. I just hope it's not that every single one is reviewed and slows the game way down. Say you get one review per half or something

Good. Would love to see some of the great, clean hits that are flagged able to be reversed.

49ers have had five personal fouls on defense this year in which the league has stated the call was incorrect the week after the game. The calls are changing games, just as much as a turnover so they should be subject to review.

It will slow down the game a bit and I am fine with that. Won't slow it too much though. The NFL knows its games get 3 hour blocks. But they need to look at these hits.

It is getting to where a clean shot on a guy gets a flag. And if it is a QB that looks like a statue back there it looks worse. I am wait for a DE to come from blind side and two-handed shove a QB to the ground like a school yard bully. Because they are at a loss for how to hit a guy.

A good idea IMO. Those calls are so hard to make at the moment of action. Pretty much what's happening now is refs are calling any hard hit.
