I hate the weak holding calls, especially when they have no impact on the play. It's form over substance

As was already pointed out in this thread, they could literally call holding every play. So bad
I hate the 5 yards automatic first down on 3rd and 20.
Needs to be 3rd and 15 not automatic

Agree not rigged... need too many involved for that to happen? Saw last play in Eagles game that ended Patriots chance for upset and catch wasn't challenged? Appeared to be 1st down by the rules. He had one foot in and...

Although the rule is 'two feet in bounds' for professional football to be a catch, it can also be any other body part (other than hands as they are like feet) to be considered in bounds.
That play was automatically reviewed since it was under two minutes in the game. He was clearly out of bounds on the review.

Never said rigged. Manipulated through rules which keep games close. Because more eyeballs equals more dollars. It’s business
Lol, a 40-0 blowout in the first Sunday night game of the season kind of blows that theory away. Or did someone fuck up and forget to manipulate that game?

Cowboys manipulated the Giants. No outside interference necessary. Something is wrong in Cincinnati

Play clock was at zero before snap? Jets 1st down? Should be 2nd and 15?? Delay is a few plays late

Been clean game so far. Also been close game.

Thou that hand to Wilson helmet is exactly what I’m talking about. That’s 15 yards some times. Sometimes not

Allen across the line td is lateral sometimes. Apparently sometimes not.

They dig up reason for and not for however they want too much

Some ending to just the start....

An illegal play in football in which a player swings his leg horizontally in an attempt to make contact with an opposing player's leg. The leg whip was banned due to the likelihood of injury occurring because of the awkward contact with the leg. It is considered an unsportsmanlike conduct infraction and is penalized 15 yards. In extreme cases where intent to injure is possible, the offending player may be ejected.
