Tell the truth Tuesday

Yeah my thing with the AI stuff is....if you are going to implement AI technology into the officiating then use it to it's actual capabilities which is removing the judgment call stuff from the officials whenever possible. Penalties like pass interference are too gray area for AI to likely have a fair assessment every time especially since officials a lot of times come up with their own criteria for how they allowed individual games to be played (now, consistency, that is a whole other issue) but something as simple as spotting a ball correctly to determine a 1st down or turnover on downs if you let the official first set the spot and then say "AI measure it from where I placed it" then the entire process is flawed to begin with. Let AI determine the actual spot in the first place.

Do you know how much data and modeling that will require? I think for that to happen they will also have to have chips embedded at every hash mark per yard. Also? the bandwidth to send the data to the AI cluster, have it get computed, and then send it back to the stadium, within a reasonable amount of time.

I don't think spotting the ball requires AI at all.

Just refs who can see straight. And something happens in that stadium where the refs can’t see straight. We are all upset about this call and how bad it was and how easily it could be remedied. But the refs and replay had a similar gaff in the AFC championship last year, a game with a trip to the Super Bowl on the line. Yet, the NFL did nothing to improve the situation. If they didn’t fix it after that, with so much on the line, the league isn’t even going to bat an eye about a game in October.

On sports radio now, they said McLaurin is out but Deebo is back so the offense should be back to full strength.

No, it's not. Full strength would be McLaurin, Deebo, Noah Brown Ekeler, and Bill/McNichols/Rodriguez. So no, we are not close to full strenght and looks like we won't ever be in 2025. What we are is back to the depleted state we were before McLaurin game back for one game.

Who said the offense is back at full strength? Was it that carnival barker Chris Russell? It feels like something either he or one of the dumbo Sports Junkies would say.
