Once the Super Bowl concludes and the NFL’s offseason officially begins, the league reviews how the season went and considers whether rules need to be changed or tweaked.
Teams often submit reasons for why certain rules should be changed or altered to improve the game moving forward, which is exactly what the Indianapolis Colts did during the NFL owners meetings.
Apparently, the Colts brass weren’t happy with how the team lost a game to the Cleveland Browns back in October when a pass interference call ended up deciding the game.
According to Stephen Holder of ESPN, the Colts proposed that reviews of all calls, including penalties, in the final two minutes of halves should be allowed, but that doesn’t seem to have sat well with others as there’s been “minimal traction” in making it happen.
Along with the Colts’ attempt to get reviews on all calls in the final two minutes of the first and second half of games, the infamous “tush push” was also discussed recently, with some wanting the controversial play to get banned in order to prevent the Philadelphia Eagles or any other team from using it from here on out.
Apparently, the league has no problem with the “tush push,” as it will remain a legal play moving forward, which is bound to make the Eagles happy after they’ve perfected the play.
As for the Colts trying to get this rule changed or implemented, it remains to be seen what the reasoning is behind not making the change.
