re: Officiating question that drives me nuts…

Makes sense to only rule if it’s for a first down or touchdown, but I agree, once a review is initiated, the review should be used to cover every aspect that can be seen in that particular part of the play. I’ve been saying this for a while with penalties. I’m fine with penalties not being reviewable by themselves, but if a play is under review for something else and there was an irrefutable missed call shown in the replay clip, it should also be corrected. The Goedert fumble play from the eagles game last week is a perfect example. Play goes to review for the fumble, the no call face mask was irrefutable on replay, but by rule they didn’t change it. They need to incorporate that going forward. That was a game deciding play and it happens often enough to matter.

Fairly certain there's a rule that says a spot can't be reviewed unless it's for a first down or touchdown

Think what can be reviewed is whether the ball reached the lines to gain or not.

In last night’s game they said it did not, so they reverted back to original spot.
