Because what he 'thought he saw' very obviously couldn't have happened. It was horseshit.

The rusher should have fallen down instead of just standing there and hitting Smith in the head hoping for the best. |

Four more years until we have to play those ass wipes so Saleh has to stew until then. No way they are winning that division any time soon

He sees 500lbs of of two humans coming at him in real time at real speed. Was it correct? No. But this isn’t the first time a ref has flagged what he thinks he sees. Won’t be the last either. I’m not defending the call. But I’ll bet it looks way different at that speed on the ground. |

An inchoate holding. He had exhibited a clear intent and taken overt acts towards committing a hold. But Jermaine Johnson didn't continue at his outside shoulder and actually force him to do it.

With as carefully timed and coordinated as Reid's screen game is, I don't think there's any question that was a designed middle screen to Kelce. And as obvious a foul as has ever existed happened right in front of the official who's job it is to watch for that very foul and it didn't get called. But yeah - Chiefs get all the breaks. Good catch.

If he's in the frame of the defender, the OL is going to be able to "hold" all they want.
It's literally what you teach your OL to do. |

Nothing will ever top guys who played/coached the game explaining how it isn't a hold and fans/reporters being like nuh uh!

It's like I was saying with DBs - you're taught to slap at WRs in your pocket so long as you keep your hands below your chest from pretty much the moment they put pads on you in peewee. Read the rule as strictly as possible and it's illegal contact. If you want the sport to, y'know, exist - it's not a penalty. That's what OL are taught from the moment they get too fat to play DE anymore. Then get stuck on the OL in HS and are taught that if you keep your hands inside your shoulders, all bets are off. Especially if/when you keep your legs moving underneath you and keep your chest square to the defender. NOBODY would expect that to be called a holding penalty and all this "it's clear as day holding" shit from the talking heads who know better is just nothing but sour grapes. This is stuff we've known since time immemorial and now we're going to pretend like it's not obvious.

Refs typically let many penalties go unless they blatantly effect the outcome of the play.
Hence... you can find a holding call on EVERY play. The ones that are called are the ones that had a drastic impact. (Most of the time). If the refs called everything, 1 NFL game would last 5 hours and games would end up like 12 to 3. Defense doesn't sell the NFL brand. |
