5. Replay officials should monitor for personal fouls. Packers DT Jarran Reed got away with a big one.

Packers LB Quay Walker was ejected from Sunday Night's game for shoving a Detroit trainer. It was the correct call.

But the call that wasn't made was the play that brought the trainer onto the field: the unpenalized forearm to the head of Lion's running back D'Andre Swift Swift by Packers defensive tackle Jarran Reed.

Reed should have been ejected as well. And suspended several games into next season without pay. It was an intentional blow to the head and potentially career-ending.

One official can watch the game from the booth.
