NFL on pace to speed up games

The NFL plans to speed up the pace of games. The league is also discussing with TV networks how to make commercial breaks less intrusive. For officiating replays, a tablet will be brought to the referee on the field and he will consult with league headquarters in New York. The final call will be made in New York. Commercial breaks would be reduced from 21 per game to 16, although each would last 30 seconds longer.
