Looks like the CFL May have figured out replay. Hope the NFL & NCAA are paying attention:
“With the 2019 CFL regular season about to kick off, we want to be as clear as possible on the role of the Command Centre, the standard on which it will conduct video reviews and the philosophy behind that standard. The Command Centre will focus on only overturning calls or non-calls made on the field where a clear and obvious mistake has been made. In other words, we do not want the game officiated from the Command Centre. The officials on the field have the best sense of the game and usually have a superior vantage point compared to a camera on the sidelines or in the stands.”
No more 5 minute delays trying to figure out if a toe was slightly touching the line, etc., etc. ..... obvious mistakes. Keep the game moving ?

The NFL ain't transparent enough to do something like that. They like to control things, and this is just another way for them to do just that.

This would be a nightmare. Can you imagine if a player’s foot barely touched the sideline, he then ran up the field and scored a touchdown, and then there was no way to overturn the call on the field? We would all be livid.

The nfl wants instant replay. Suspense/drama hanging on a commercial break ($$$).

The NFL is a purely entertainment league.

The NFL and NCAA need to allow the booth to over rule obvious calls without having to have a discussion. There I no reason an obviously dropped pass or knee down should take 7-8 minutes.
