Mr. McNally embraced video technology as another set of eyes on the field.
There were some glaring growing pains. During an October 1986 game between the Kansas City Chiefs and Los Angeles Raiders, a video review overturned a touchdown call on the field for the Raiders. But the on-field official misheard the video booth message over a walkie-talkie. The touchdown stood and the Raiders won, 24-17.
In 1986, video reviews were used 374 times, about 1.6 per game, with 38 on-field calls reversed, the NFL said.“We’ve got some bugs that came up,” Mr. McNally said, “but, personally, our people feel that this is excellent for the game.” Mr. McNally stepped down as head of officiating in March 1991, moving to the NFL-run World League as the officiating supervisor, then as an assistant supervisor of officiating and a trainer until 2015.
