New England Patriots head coach Bill Belichick, who loves cameras (yes that is a spygate joke) proposed adding cameras on the goal line and boundaries. The NFL has decided to table that discussion to be revisited at a later point.
It is a good idea in theory but would it really help officials determine where a ball was in a pile as players fight for first down or to get across the goal line. There would be a lot of bodies in the way interfering with the sightline of these cameras.
NFL tabled the discussion of putting cameras on the goal line and boundaries and will continue studying that proposal
