I guess I would just disagree. I see spots challenged fairly often (not as much as out of bounds, catch calls, or fumbles). But I'd say once in 4 games. As for overturning or not; it seems to be overturned no more or less than any of the other types of replays...and in the case of this spot; it was very clear that it was far off. I actually would argue that he was closer to the 2 yardline than the 1. I was actually shocked that the play by play guys weren't talking about it sooner. Granted I'm in Seatttle; but we all jumped off our couch the minute we saw the ref run out to spot the ball.
yep that was my point.
