Report: NFL Could Use Electronic Measuring System For First Downs Next Season
Chain GangAfter the Buffalo Bills’ loss to the Kansas City Chiefs in the AFC Championship included a questionable ruling that QB Josh Allen was short of the sticks on a QB sneak attempt, there’s been a lot of discussion about the NFL putting an electronic chip in the football to track the spot. While the league isn’t considering a chip, they are considering using an electronic system to measure first downs, according to a report by Mark Maske of the Washington Post.
The Chiefs go-ahead TD drive was set up by a ruling that Josh Allen did not get a Bills first down.
Jim Nantz, Tony Romo, Gene Steratore react to the ruling.
"Wow." – Romo
