I am amazed at the amount of times leagues admit officiating mistakes but never overturn any results.

Not saying this should be overturned because Minny still had to score but this is getting ridiculous.

Minnesota recovered the on-side kick on the scUM side of the 50 with 1:47 left on the clock...they very likely could've gotten inside FG range, if they didn't score the go-ahead TD.

By the time it gets to the leagues to admit officiating mistakes, they can't overturn it. What were they supposed to do? They don't look at it until after the game, at the earliest. Should they have put the 1:47 back on the clock and called the teams back out from the locker rooms? Or, maybe Minnesota was already on the plane. Or maybe they're already back home. Call them back to AA?

Refs across all of sports need to be held accountable for blowing such obvious calls. Until they are, this bullshit will continue unabated.

I thought that's why they introduced video review - just noticing that there are more cameras - and more ways top check sideline/goalline issues when the big networks are covering the games instead of BTN. As for accountable - law suits and lynch mobs would follow. No thank you.
