Where did we go so wrong? It's what millions of fans wondered and thought aloud so many times over the course of the 2017 season as it pertained to the NFL catch rule.

Fans knew there was a horrible problem. The league knew it as well. Now, the Competition Committee is looking to do something about it, as Al Riveron proclaimed via his Twitter account.

“Over the past several days, the NFL Competition Committee has been reviewing the process of a catch,” Riveron said. “The first two elements are control and two feet down. Additional elements are also under consideration.”

The plays highlighted in Riveron's tweet included the controversial Jesse James overturn in the classic late-season Pittsburgh Steelers-New England Patriots matchup that decided home field advantage throughout.

Troy Vincent, NFL executive VP of football operations, furthered the conversation by outlining exactly where the rule went awry, claiming that the league “worked backward,” via Mark Maske of The Washington Post.

“We worked backward,” NFL executive V.P. of football operations Troy Vincent told Mark Maske of the Washington Post. “We looked at plays and said: Do you want that to be a catch? And then we applied that to the rule.”

Many would simply say the league hasn't suffered through a “catch rule,” rather a “replay rule.”

Instead of sticking with the most important rule of “indisputable evidence,” on the field calls were being overturned that should have simply stayed as called on the field. No matter the rule implemented, mistakes and controversial calls will still rage on. It's abiding by that indisputable evidence rule that will avoid all complications moving forward.

In any event, adding a little legitimacy to the written rule can't hurt.
