As an official, I just can't understand how you don't let that play out. It will be automatically reviewed and you'll be bailed out on the call, regardless.
Sometimes reviews don't provide conclusive evidence and you have to go with the call on the field, so I don't blame them for """""trying""""" to get the initial call right.
The more maddening part for me is the restricted amount of challenges. You knew the Patriots were in trouble when they had no challenges for the entire 4th quarter. If the league isn't willing to hire more competent officiating, the least they could do is allow for more coach's challenges cuz these refs are guaranteed to screw up more than 2-3 times per game. IMO as long as you have timeouts you should be allowed to challenge.
