Cory's Corner: Managing replay isn't coaching

The more gaffes I see with instant replay, I the more I terrified I become.

It’s going to happen. A Super Bowl will be decided by failed instant replay, which will leave over 100 million people scratching their heads.

The premise of replay is good. However, replay has superseded just about every coaching decision.

Case in point is Saints head coach Sean Payton. He challenged two calls in Sunday's NFC Divisional Playoff that looked pretty iffy to the naked eye that they would be reversed. The narrative for Payton is that he made two challenge gaffes, not that he took his final timeout of the game with 14 seconds left and failed to remind his defensive youngsters that all you have to do is keep the Vikings out of the end zone and don’t allow them to sneak out-of-bounds.
