Kubiak said in his press conference that they get whatever replay feed the home team gives them. On the long pass down the sideline, they didn't even see the replay before the Titans snapped the ball. Does anyone else see this as a problem for the league to deal with?
To me, if you have replay, there has to be an opportunity for the teams to see the replay before the next play is made. Maybe the NFL should put Tivo in each booth. That way, you can just stop the feed and rewind it. Then, we won't have this issue.
Or, you could have a replay official in the booth that tells the Referee that they just missed a call, and the call gets overturned automatically...
I would like for the NFL to comment on this situation, if in fact this is the way it works...

I agree. If that is what happened then it should be handled by the commish. I don't think any disciplinary action should be handed out because I don't think there is any rule out there yet. I do think that it should be looked into though.

The coaches can get replays from 2 sources. The television broadcaster and the videoboard. CBS didn't show a replay. The videoboard is controlled by the Titans. Without being there, I'm guessing they decided not to show a replay that might go the other way. The Texans would do the same here. The biggest clue though should have been how Kerry Collins was trying to get down the field so fast. Collins knew the play was close. Plus Will Demps was signaling the coaches that the pass was incomplete. Call a timeout and then you will get the replay. End of lesson.

They had already wasted one time-out so I am sure that factored into the decision.

Should of asked officials if the play was viewable. It would of bought Kubiak a little time and the reolay would have been shown.

Bad choices all around in that game from Head coach to QB.
