just checked the rule book. Here is the new rule implemented this year (talking about what is reviewable):
The game clock, in situations in which time is deemed to have expired during or after the last play of the first or second half, or of an overtime period in the preseason or regular season, or of an overtime half in the
postseason. Time shall be put back on the game clock if there has been an error in the operation of the game clock. In the first half, time shall be restored only if the additional play will be a snap from scrimmage.
In the second half, time shall be restored only if it is a one-score game (eight points or less), and the additional play will be a snap from scrimmage by the team that is behind in the score, or by either team if the
score is tied.
Notes:
(1) A timing error is defined as having occurred only when the visual evidence demonstrates that more than
one second should be put on the clock.
(2) A correction of a timing error for a team timeout may be made only if there is visual evidence of an
official’s signal.
