Last offseason, the NFL changed the rules so that all scoring plays were automatically reviewed by the replay assistant, who then paged the referee and told him to halt the game and review the play if the ruling was close enough. This offseason, the NFL may change the rules again so that not only scoring plays but also plays in the end zone that aren’t ruled a touchdown or safety on the field get reviewed.
NFL may expand replay, automatically review all end zone plays | ProFootballTalk
That's still not enough, since it means that plays ruled short of the endzone (run from goal line stand, for example) won't be reviewed, but it would at least be an improvement over the current system.
