Should be easy to put sensors in the nose of the football and see how far the nose achieved on each down.
Difficult part would be to make sensors that could handle the abuse of the football including kicking it. |

The technology is pretty shitty if they used it in the Super bowl. We must have had at least 5 instances where they spotted us short.

It's already done in English and other countries soccer balls. They are kicked repeatedly and blast of goal posts, peoples heads and stand walls. It should be already be used in the NFL

What good does a sensor in the ball do if the guys knee is down and then the ball crosses the line?

A little microphone that amplifies the "DOINK" sound when it hits the upright would be kind of cool.
