I hope they continue to let that be a basic free for all except in the most egregious cases, but it won't shock me if the first hail mary that is successful isn't booth reviewed as offensive pass interference.

When there becomes numerous examples of pass interference on tape complete with the results of reviews how are they going to justify having the same action result in a different decision just due to the fact the play was a last second Hail Mary and not a go route that was thrown into heavy coverage? We shall see.
I understand the referees swallowing their whistle on Hail Marys. The same as NBA ref do on inbound plays in the paint during the final seconds of a tight game. I venture if the NBA started reviewing foul calls there would be issues with the way those situations are called.
