At the owner's meeting today, they voted to keep instant replay for 3 more years, maybe actually getting the reviewers out of the booth later to keep the game on the field. What does everybody think about instant replay? Good, bad, slow the game too much?

Personally, I like it, although coaches should be able to dispute more calls.

I don't think it's a bad idea. If there is a play that is hard to call they can get a chance to review it. There are some times that it seems to take up a long time for them to decide.

I like it. There are a few games that come to mind where I would have loved to have the Instant Replay around.

I've always liked Instant Replay, and wanted it when it wasn't yet in place. I don't care if it takes time, if it creates fewer bad calls, which it does, then its worth it.

I think it's great that they have instant replay for the next three seasons. Even though it takes a little bit of time, it's well worth it.

Definitely worth it. And I even like the fact that coaches can only challenge a limited number of calls per game. It becomes another element of strategy--when do you employ your review if you know you might need it later? Now if they'd just do something about sudden death OT...the college OT is so much better...

I like the decision. If it will assure the right calls are made... right on for it.

I love the idea. Ever since the Patriots screwed the Bills out of a play-off spot back in 98' on the last play of the game...I have always wanted it back...:(

Although I don't watch the NFL very much, I love the Instant Replay feature where coaches can challenge the calls.

Football is probably THE sport that requires the most stradegy of any pro team sport, and the Instant Replay option just adds to that stradegy!

I think they need it for the fair judgement and also its kinda hard for a few reffes to watch loads of player *kill* each other out there and to look for penalties
