How will that show when the knee goes down though? I mean, the ball can move quite a bit forward well after the player is down. In a pile up, how will they see that?

Looking forward to the ****ing insanity this will bring. Ugh.
It's obvious. You put sensors in the player's knees

They will also need butt sensors.

Yeah, That would be the clear, best path. We can know exactly where the ball is down to the micro-inch.
No it won't. Unless there is some way to tell exactly when a knee, elbow, butt, shin or whatever other body part determines when a player is down, is down.

If the technology tracks the position with time, you could use the game tape to determine the instant the player was down and then check to see if the ball crossed the line to gain before that instant.

I am waiting for the next rule to come around....

Only TD's scored by Buffalo will be counted in the playoffs during the 4th quarter.

Did anybody read the tweet in the OP? Did they read the multiple threads where we discussed this? This DOES NOT affect the spot of the ball. That is still 100% subjective. All this does is eliminate play stoppages for measurements.

Can't be said enough. This really only fixes situations where the chain gang was somehow ****ing up. I don't remember that happening ever that we noticed. It represents some progress in eliminating a weird measurement process and moving further down the path of using technology to officiate. But it has nothing at all to do with the Buffalo Bills or the game we played. The ref still has responsibility of spotting the ball.

Yep, you are looking at when a knee is down then the system tells you where the ball was.
