There needs to be a ref in the booth with the ability to call the obvious penalties that the commentators, the talking heads and the 100 million ****ing people watching at home see but somehow the guy who was staring at it from five feet away missed.

Agreed. Someone in the NFL was talking about that recently. Think it has a good chance of happening in the next year or two.

Yeah, that will happen when the Chiefs start an actual QB. Dangit... that's gonna earn me some PA/MT demerits.

Honestly, they're worried about player safety on those leaps? But, they appear to be fine with players doing all sorts of acrobatic flips as they score... seems legit.

What the **** is a full time ref going to do that will make them any better than the current experienced refs?

It's the safety of the long snapper they're worried about as much as the player leaping over the line. Currently, they let you get away with it if you don't end up touching the long snapper, but that's kind of like saying drinking and driving is OK unless you hit someone. It's the potentially-dangerous action they're trying to get rid of.

A lot of these guys make fat bank in their day jobs, what's the point of making them full-time? Training 4 days a week on what is and isn't a catch?

I think it should be up to the kicking team to adapt and stop the center leaping.
Just like when offenses try a new type of offense, defenses have to adapt. part of the game

I don't think those are fun plays. They are basically Madden glitches. I have no problem with them getting rid of that. Although on many of those the team could have just waited a half second and let the defender jump offsides.
