Maybe go the route of the CFL and have refs make the calls but give the ability of teams to challenge a call or two every game? Not sure there's any great solution.

Yeah, it's a slippery slope. If you they review this, then there'll be people calling for more and more things to be reviewed and that's not good.
I do like the challenge idea. I don't see anything wrong with it as long as you limit what you can challenge, which is easier said than done.
I do think this new conference thing is a bad idea and I'd rather leave it up to the original call as opposed to what we saw last night. The optics were horrible(reversing a call a minute after based on the conference of the refs who only had one look at it in full speed), even if the call was right. We're going to have situations down the road where the reversed call will be the wrong call.
