•Penalties. Under no circumstance can a penalty call be reviewed.
•Forward progress. It's a judgement call on the field by the officials.
•A fumble after the whistle has blown. At that point, the play is considered dead and can't be reviewed.
•Any kick going above the uprights
•Inadvertent whistles
•Recovery of a fumble in the field of play

Actually I think the 2 fumble rules are wrong now. I am pretty sure both are reviewable. BUT, from a tinfoil perspective, having non-reviewable plays actually makes the game harder to fix. If you have non-reviewable plays you have to set more tracks in motion to affect the outcome of a game. Once plays are reviewable, you can fix it with the replay official, and steer games in your direction by gradual changes.
