No I think they were pretty sure right off the bat and didn't want to blow it so they checked it a few more times. The review only took 5 minutes from the flag being thrown to the ref announcing the call. Hardly an eternity, and only given the intensity of the game did it seem like forever.
I wasn't that confident going in to the replay but the players knew right away and that usually means something.
Besides, none of us are officials, trained and equipped to make these calls. The pros did their job and that's what they are paid for.
It was a tight game, but that wasn't the only chance Calgary had to put us away. They had lots of good feld position opportunities and they failed to capitalize. Can't blame that on the refs.
