It sure looked like the ball hit the ground on Fitzgerald's first TD, and the holding call in the EZ was reeruned.
Notice who made the call?
The Umpire, who from where he was standing couldn't possibly have seen holding - he only could have assumed it.
Had that flag come from the Referee, who had a PERFECT view of the play, I could understand the call.

He grabbed onto the defender and fell backwards. If that's not holding, then I don't know what is. I think he could easily see the guy on the ground, bear-hugging the defender.
