Back to EpisodesNFL: Replay Errors Peak at 1 PM Games, Solutions Sought
Description
Denver Broncos coach Sean Payton discovered a surprising trend at the 2026 NFL Scouting Combine: most replay errors in the 2025 season occurred during 1 p.m. Eastern Time Sunday games. NFLs executive vice president of football operations, Troy Vincent, revealed this data, with four out of five flagged reviews happening in that time slot. Coaches on the competition committee, including Payton, Mike Vrabel, and John Lynch, reacted swiftly. Payton joked about preferring later game times, while Vrabel advocated for better staffing across all games. Lynch, drawing from his broadcasting experience, pointed out the lack of camera coverage in early games. The committee is now considering adding fixed stadium cameras to ensure consistent views for replay officials, aiming to reduce errors and maintain fair officiating for fans.
