Pretty neat how they will be using chips in shoulder pads and sensors around the stadium to get player info

I think Chip Kelly does something similar at practice already.

Ridiculous. This has been going on in soccer for years.

I'm waiting for the high tech glasses for the refs to use so we can see what the hell were you looking at. lol

Those chips and more chips will lead to.... Well, more...

They should have a laser range finder on ball for first down markings.
Time wasted measuring when technology there for many years on auto matking ball position.

Ridiculous. This has been going on in soccer for years.

It's not interesting there and it won't be interesting in the NFL either, if you ask me.

There are some teams who use this and similar tech in practice already in the NFL - including the Cowboys.
