Dungy's "Challenge"

[Sevenis7]

I'm not arguing that having 12 men on the field is illegal. What I am arguing is that the refs didn't call it and therefore should not have been reviewable. It's a non-call. As OC1981 pointed out, if this is the case (being able to challenge calls that weren't made), why can't you challenge holding non-calls or pass interference non-calls? Again, it smacks of different rules for the Colts than for everyone else...

I thinks it's when the league starts changing rules and such to fit the style of play of a certain team....

follow the rules and theres no problems. kudos peyton, i love it when you catch opposing D's off guard. If ya want a sub, call a timeout...if ya try a quick sub, peyton won't let you! ha!

I'll go real slow for you, Peyton. It's the CHALLENGE itself that I question; I don't think you can challenge "non-calls" (ie, no flag was thrown on that play = no penalty to review).

Also, if I'm not mistaken, I think there are rules concerning the no-huddle. Sam Wyche (ex-Bengals' coach) used the no-huddle a lot (almost entire games) in the season when the Bengals met the 49ers in the Super Bowl. I think teams complained about it just for the reasons you cited: they weren't able to make substitutions. I thought the league put some restrictions on its use....
