March 22, 20178 yr Author comment_255109 http://www.tsn.ca/cfl-rules-committee-voting-on-changes-today-1.703119 Rules Committee:: "The committee, made up of coaches, general managers, referees, players’ association representatives and league officials, spent a large proportion of its time this week discussing alterations to the coach’s challenge process in an effort to reduce game interruptions. Last summer’s mid-season change to put a timeout at risk with every challenge is expected to stay. Under the proposed change, coaches would only be allowed to challenge 30 seconds into a commercial break. Last season, coaches could wait until the end of a two-minute break before challenging a play. Illegal contact pass interference away from the play/ball remains a challengeable offence, but the command centre will be given a strict mandate to only uphold challenges on clear and evident fouls. Once this standard is upheld, the rules committee believes fewer challenges will be made. TV broadcasts will also go to commercial break for most challenges, which should result in better flow and help keep the length of games in check. The standard for roughing the passer is also expected to be tightened up. The committee will vote on only upholding roughing the passer challenges when the quarterback is in a vulnerable position or in the act of passing. Low blindside blocks on interceptions and kicks will also be outlawed." Edited March 22, 20178 yr by BigBlue

I still dont like the touch football level of penalty on the PI but atleast it isnt another year of extreme changes.

After twenty seconds elapses, that play can't be challenged. Almost there . . . 'A recommendation tabled by the committee Wednesday requests coaches no longer be able to challenge a play following a television commercial. It approved, coaches would have to throw their flag within the first 30 seconds of the break rather than be allowed to wait the entire duration before doing so'. (source CFL Official Site)
