METAIRIE, La. -- Although Sean Payton helped to inspire and create the NFL's controversial new pass interference replay rule, he is among the growing legions who are disappointed with the results so far.
So the New Orleans Saints coach has a suggestion to improve it: Instead of replays being decided solely by the league's senior vice president of officiating, Al Riveron, they should be decided by a group of three people.
"You know, we don't have one Supreme Court justice," said Payton, who pointed out that the Canadian Football League also uses a group to decide its pass interference replays.
