Goodell talks about the length of games, admitting that it also drives him crazy. He explains different options the NFL is considering to help decrease all the down time in television broadcasts and talks about a new proposal to make overtime periods just 10 minutes, instead of 15, and how that will help player health and safety and introduce more strategy to the game. He also discusses the potential of centralized replay and announces that there will be some full-time officials at the start of the 2017 season, the beginning of a gradual buildup with the goal of having the referee of each crew as a full-time official.
